We hope you all have a most wonderful Valentine's with your furless family. The rescue that we got our wonderful sisfur Maddie from is doing a food drive for February and Valentine's Day. If you wanted to show some pups some love this would be a great way.

So mom got up before the sun this morning and headed out to go get Opus and Casper. Luckily the weather monster didn't get in the way.
She meet up with the nice Miss Misty lady and got the boys loaded up in the car.
So Casper decided that he was going to ride shotgun and there was no talking him out of it. Mom tried rearranging the backseat and putting a block up and he still got in the front. So mom decided to just let him ride there.
He kinda fogged up the window.
Nice view from up here.
Are we there yet?!
Opus decided he would use the trip to save up his energy.
Then he decided to help mom navigate and made sure she wasn't speeding.
On Sunday there wasn't a lot of traffic so mom got back about an hour before she was meeting up with the nice Miss Becky lady that was taking them the rest of the way. So they got to come over and stretch their legs. I got to see Opus for about 30 seconds but mom is a chicken introducing new dogs so I had to go back inside.
Opus and a snow snack and then he was trying to play with Casper. (We're pretty sure Casper didn't see it that way) Casper spent most of his time rolling on his back in the snow but mom never caught him with the flashy beast.
Here is what she did catch:
So mom had a great time today and then she came and I got to cuddle with her.
So mom is getting up early tomorrow morning to go on her first transport run. She is going to pick up Opus and Casper and help them get to Denver so they can get their heartworm treatments and be all ready for their forever families!
This is Opus:
and
This is Casper.
We'll have more pictures after the trip.
Maybe we'll even look for Yellow's for Murray.
Hope you guys have a great Sunday!
We'll be here holding down the couch til mom gets home.
So What's Her Name is making a wonderful quilt for the Pittie Pack. Well we don't have blankies that we use. So we talked mom into making a square for us.
Isn't it cool?
Mom mailed it by fast mail (since we were running late). When What's Her Name posted the list of who she got squares from mom didn't see us on the list. So she asked if they got it and she said no.
So this is why we hate mailmen.
So What's Her Name is a super nice lady and she told us we could still send one. So we gave mom our sad puppies eyes.....
and asked her if maybe she would make another one. Well thank goodness mom loves us lots and she loves the Pittie Pack so guess what she did...
Some of you might have seen on FB that we had a bit of a scare with Kitteh Brudder Tanner this week. He wasn't using his back legs so good. Mom and Dad thought they might have to take him the ER V-E-T. They gave him fluids and some pain meds they got from Vet Aunt Barb. And then he snuggled up in mom's lap for the night.
Well they took him to see the V-E-T on Monday and found out he has arthritis in his back and right knee and the xray also showed that he's got 3, count them 3 bladder stones. :-( Poor kitteh. They also did blood work, which was all normal except for an elevated white count. So he will get meds for a week and then a re-check and assuming all is well then he will get the stones out.
We sure are happy he's doing better.
While Mom and Dad were running around dealing with Tanner we did what we do best.
So do any of you have kitty brothers who hog the couch??
If so what do you do about it???
Wags!
Mr. Nubbin'
PeeS. Maddie and Cuz'in Ruger have figured out that they like to play! It's silly to see a 135lb mastiff playing with a 55lb "mutt". Hmmmm I guess that is what life is like for Mango and Dexter!
Well hello there. My name is Boomer. I'm a very special Ridgeback. I have a Nubbin' instead of a tail. Welcome to my bloggie. I'm not sure how exciting it will be, but here we go.....
