  • DOUBLE THE LOVE DRIVE FOR GSP’s

    So, I meant to post about this sooner, but today is the last day to donate to one of my (and Tim’s) favorite causes- the California German Shorthair Pointer Rescue.

    You see, the GSP Rescue was a big deal to Tim. He volunteered there—helping with all sorts of needs, like building a fence for Jan, cleaning up the lawn, mowing, and endless chores that needed to be done. Tim had a huge heart, and a soft spot for those pointers. And the people at the rescue are amazing. Jan has been running this rescue from her own residence, and giving dogs that would have been killed a second chance. In addition, to rescuing the dogs, the provide medical care, rehabilitation, and foster care. And Jan’s main volunteer, Greg has the biggest heart! His photo skills have also helped.

    Anyhoo… today’s the last day to donate to their Double the Love Drive. Any amount will be doubled by an anonymous donor. So your $25 now becomes their $50 benefit. This money will go towards rescuing the dogs, all the big medical fees, surgery procedures, dog food, and misc things.

    Here’s some photos with our sugar, Oliver, our GSP we rescued from this center. And take a few minutes to donate to Oliver’s peeps!

    These above shots are from my iPhone, so sorry about the bad quality. But had to share my sugar taking good care of me. Before Tim passed he wasn’t allowed on the couch. So, yes, I’ve spoiled my pup a bit more.

    The big Super Bowl game is just days away! But you have to check out Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl Super Bowl Sunday at 3pm E/P.

    These adorable sugars below are part of the “starting lineup.” And there’s even a Piglet Pep Squad!  How great is this?

    And the great bonus… you can adopt ALL of these pups… ok, or one of them. Go to the Puppy Bowl website and check out the videos and all the puppy photos. Definitely a mood lifter!

    And if you’re interested in adopting, check out your local rescue. We got Oliver at the German Shorthair Pointer Rescue.

    Enjoy the game and adopt don’t shop!!
