Bart's Birthday Comment-a-thon!!

Hi Everybody!!
 
 
It's ME, Ruby!  
I wanted to let you all know that this Sunday,
December 4, my handsome big brother,
BART turns 7!   
 


And while we'll be celebrating by doing all
our usual birthday stuff, like
hiking, and getting treats and maybe getting
a special surprise,
we're gonna be sad, too, cuz it would have been
Gizmo's birthday, too.  

We're very sad that he didn't even make it to 7.

Bart
Then Bart had this really good idea!!

We found out that our my friend Chubs who we
couldn't rescue because Bart's a wusie has
a fractured pelvis and will need to have surgery.

chubs
We thought that since we couldn't help Gizmo get better from his sickies, maybe we can help
Chubs feel better before he goes to his
most perfect home that ever was.

SO, in honor of Bart and Gizmo's Birthday
we're gonna have a 
comment-a-thon
to raise some money for Chubs's surgery.
for every comment left on our blog from 
Saturday, 12/3 at 7:00 AM through
Sunday, 12/4 at 7:00 PM
we will donate $1.00 to 
to help the Chubmeister!

Leave a comment and tell us something funny about yourself. We can use a laugh this year. Thanks!!

Love,

-Ruby

Did I Tell You...

I got to go to the beach!!
Yep, I did!!

this is mom's desktop picture...
Last month, mom and me met mom's friend and her dog Wizard at the beach up by Santa Barbara. 

Wizard is a "career change" guide dog for the blind.  That means he had a little bit of separation anxiety and couldn't become a guide dog because they have to be perfect like Brandon's gonna be. 
But that was the best thing because Wizard became like his mom's therapy dog when she got very bad sickies a few years back.  He stayed with her and loved her and helped her stay focused on getting better and he made those nasty leukemia cells go away!!

Wizard's on the left, flirting with some random girl...



Wizard is a goldendoodle like

He loved the ocean like crazy!!





He was all zooming in and out of the water and chasing his bumper thingy.  Sheesh!

Why work so hard??


Besides, like I said, it was like the middle of last month and it was like 98 degrees!!


I had to carry the freaking camera bag...
Look at me.  I'm a mess... 
Actually, I did get my paws wet, but was not interested in all that running and fetching and everything, even though Wizard was a really nice guy.

The cool part was that Wizard wore himself out, so I got to go to a "dog friendly" restaurant for lunch and I got to lay on the patio and get admired 
while Wizard napped in his car :-)

Of course SHE didn't take the camera to the restaurant.  

This is the desktop picture on the yaptop...  

We're going to go again now that it's cooler.  

Sending Rottie Kisses,

Love,

-Bart

Almost Wordless Wednesday...


'Chubs'           
SHE got an e-mail yesterday saying that Mr. Chubs had made it to Big Sky Rottweiler Rescue in Wyoming.
They said that he's settling in well, and they agreed with our assessment that Chubs is a bit dominate that Bart is a wimp... and will look to place him either with a female or as an only dog. I put him right in his place, you know...
He was getting checked out by the vet yesterday.
Our paws are crossed that this beautiful boy finds the perfect forever home.

In the event that Bart and I escape capture by the flashy beast in adorable holiday wear,

Happy Thanksgiving to our
Blogville family.

We are very grateful to have you in our lives.
-Ruby & Bart
