Don't Buy A GPS!

This morning has been incredibly great! Andy called at 7:45 this morning to tell me that he was headed to our rescue ranch to pick up some more dogs for them to adopt out in Austin! I then got busy doing adoption paperwork on twelve very lucky dogs, that will more than likely, be in great Austin Homes by this weekend.

At 9:30, to our surprise—John showed up for work! Tony and I weren’t expecting him to come to work today, after the twenty-something hour drive to get Mama to Louisiana! After dropping Mama off at Bob and Tiffany’s home—he drove all of the way back and got home at 3:30 in the wee morning hours! John was pretty tired, but he was ready to help us with the dog adoptions.

Andy called to tell me that his GPS told him that he would be arriving at the rescue ranch at 11:33! While Tony and John busily put names and dog tags on Mari’s new dog collars, I worked on the dog’s paperwork. At 11:34—Andy arrived! He was one minute late.

Within the hour, Andy drove away with Layla, Ms. Pepper, Amber, Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, Henry Fonda, Susie, Sam, Bunny, Bocepheus, Ringo Starr and Ann Landers! Tomorrow thru Sunday, they will be at the area PetSmart locations in Austin, between the hours of ten o’clock and six o’clock to be adopted to great homes. I love it!

After Andy left the rescue ranch, Tony and John finished their chores, and then John went home for much needed sleep.

Tony and I are now taking the rest of the day off, and I will return the twenty-seven new phone calls tomorrow morning. I’m pooped.

Our Dogs Rule!

This morning, John picked up five more dogs, from Hoegemeyer’s, that we rescued, from the Kerrville pound, on Wednesday—and were they happy to get here! John put Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda in one pen. Katherine Ross and Jane Fonda are happily sharing a pen, and Henry Fonda has his own pen for now—until we decide who should be his roommate.

Roger Miller, who was returned to us, a week ago, for eating a saddle, is glad to be back and he loves his roommate—Lucy!

DOCTOR’S REPORT: John is now fully recovered from the flu! Tony is still sicker than a dog (whatever that is supposed to mean). And, I am a little bit better. Cough, Cough, Cough!

We Just Rescued These Dogs!

Starting on Monday, we rescued Miss Daisy, Layla, (Mr. Stubbs—who has already been adopted). and Susie. On Tuesday, we rescued Ms. Pepper, Sierra and Sam. Today, we went to the Kerrville pound and rescued Henry, Peter and Jane Fonda, along with Dennis Hopper and Kathryn Ross—and we're all still sick with the flu!

These dogs are the first to be released to us from Hoegemeyers—after being spayed or neutered and having received all of their shots! They are great dogs!

Tomorrow we plan to go back to the pound to get two more, because we are replacing the 14 dogs that we adopted out last week!

Needless to say, we have been busy, and fortunately, we are all starting to feel much better!
