{Shelter Dog Saturday} Meetin’ up with Maverick

We were blessed enough to be able to meet up with our favorite former foster dog a few Saturdays ago. You all remember Maverick don’t you??

boyscoutbear

Didjou say Maverick?!?

Bear was soooooOOOOoooo excited!! And boy were those two happy to see each other!

I’m thrilled to say that Maverick’s doing amazing, and seems so happy and settled with his awesome adoptive parents.

Reunited at last. :D

Maverick’s gotten too cool for school, he even wears sunglasses now ;)  While we hung out and walked the dogs, it was fun to talk about all the progress these two have made…

Bear taught Maverick all about stealing the chickens yummables…

And how to relax peacefully at your persons feet…

And the fine art of professional lounging…

It’s important….

Lastly, he taught Maverick to tolerate the people dressing him up…

We’re going to try to squeeze in one more visit with Maverick before we re-locate out of Kansas, because these two boys really have bonded quite strongly and it’s so fun to watch them interact together! We’re blessed to have known you Maverick!

Kong is passin’ it along

Have I told you recently how much I love the Kong Company? Oh, that’s right. I have.

But seriously. They just keep on rockin’ my world…

Imagine my surprise when this showed up at my door one evening (cutest puppy ever not included).

We. Were. Stoked! 

There may or may not have been cheering involved. Scooter howled. ;)

Now of course all these Kongs weren’t for us! We aren’t in need of such a large quantity of kongs here en la casa de SheSpeaksBark, but our shelter friends at Pottawatomie County Caring Hearts Humane Society are!! I’d entered them in the Kong Raffle contest months ago, and had no idea we’d won until the package showed up at my door. It was a random drawing contest and we simply got lucky-I’m so glad our dogs will reap the benefits!

Scooter is ready to be Kong’s next top model! If they ever come a knockin’ he’s asked for this ^ to be his submission shot ;)

On top of their generous donation of kong toys, we also received several soft bodied butterfly toys. We’ll plan to use them at the shelter for our smaller breed dogs and puppies. They crinkle and rattle so I’m just sure they’ll be a hit!

Scooter again with the posing, and the quality control…he takes his job very seriously!

Then my OCD kicked in, and this happened….

All the colors of the rainbow!! (Sorta) These kongs were of such a different variety than our last box, which had a TON of those large black extra durable kongs. All our bully breeds really got the hook up on the last donation box, so I was happily surprised to see this box included more of the small/medium kongs. We’re so lucky that a company like Kong thinks of our shelter dogs, because these little gifts make their stay with us so much more comfortable. Thank you Kong!!

National Specially-abled Pets Day (2013)

We posted about it last year, but specially-abled pets are important enough that they deserve a reminder EACH & every year. Since it’s May 3rd, today’s the day set aside to honor those animals in our lives who are less-that perfect physically, and oh-so perfect in every other way. See Exhibit A below:

In our house, EVERY day is Specially-abled pets day, and we love it. :) Scooter has been such a blessing to us, and five years later we’re still finding it hard to believe he’s our to enjoy each and every day!

There is both a website and facebook page associated with National Specially-Abled Pets day if you want to stay in touch with their goings-on.

Do any of you have a specially-abled pet of your own at home?? How many of you know someone who does?
