7 Years Ago Today - Feb 10, 2001

This is the seventh anniversary of Buster's adoption. We found her picture on PetShelter.org, hopped in the car, and brought her home.

OK - it was actually more complicated thn that. We had to wait another 48 hours before she was available for adoption. The dog shelter in Shelton, WA., said she could be adopted any time after 10:00 AM. We got there around 8, but they wouldn't let us jump the line. Several other people also wanted to adopt her.

The very nice woman in charge of pet adoptions put everyone's name in a hat. Ours was drawn. "Bella" was renamed Buster and she's been the light of our lives - and a thoroughly spoiled dog - ever since.



Happy Birthdy, Big Dog!

Useless Bay - Oct 26, 2007

Fall has come to the Pacific Northwest. We've already had the windstorm that usually arrives for Thanksgiving. Days are shorter and nights are colder. But Friday dawned sunny and clear. So we packed up the dogs for a final trip to Useless Bay and the Best Dog Beach Ever!

Honoring Clover

In memory of Clover, we are sponsoring a charity auction on eBay, with 100% of the proceeds going to NOAH (Northwest Organization for Animal Help)

If you'd like to donate, there are two auctions going:

The first is for a copy of Easy Auction Photography. The bidding has been brisk, and the price is already out of range for many people. Thank you!

So, to accommodate those who'd like a chance to donate to rescue cats and dogs, we've added a second set of "Buy It Now" Easy Auction Photography CDs for just $10.00 each (normal retail is $20.00)

A Chip On Her Shoulder

Rascal joined the rest of her packmates today in the world of bar coded dogs. She finally got her microchip. She was shaking like a leaf.

Useless Bay - Whidbey Island, WA

Useless Bay

Last summer, while we were at the Whidbey Island dog beach at Useless Bay, we thought Buster would have more fun if she had a pack of her own. It seemed that all the other dogs were from multi-dog households, or that they were much more social than Buster. We went looking for a one to two year old dog, and ended up with two 8 week old puppies.

But we were right about the beach.

Today was in the 70's as we packed up and headed for the ferry. This was the puppies first visit to the beach. They seemed to like it.
