We have a couple of quick items for you today to make you smile. But before we get to them, we'd like to send out get well wishes to a friend who is very active in assisting with dog rescue and transport. He had a scary heart procedure done and we're glad the old grouch (his words) will be able to continue his mission of helping The Orphans, as he calls the homeless and unwanted animals.. If you don't know Mark Crider, here's a news video from 2009.
He does a lot to help to help pets, including facing down those who ignore the Texas laws against leaving a dog living on the end of a chain without shelter, food or water. We're glad he is still with us and wish him a speedy and complete recovery. We'd all take our ten gallon hats off to you, Mark, but we don't own any. We hope you'll settle for some purrs and tail wags.

If we can find enough change in our typing chair from Jan's pockets, we're thinking of getting her one of these cell phones for Christmas. The email said you have to be old as dirt to understand it but since Jan more than qualifies, we think she'd like one.
We like this LOL from I has a HotDog. And it's true. We drive Jan nuts trying to figure out what we've done.
We send the old grouch best wishes. It's important that people stand up when they see cruelty and he is certainly doing his part.
ReplyDeleteDeb loved the cell phone -- about her speed! Freckles needs push buttons -- those dials just don't work with her paws!
Our Momster understands the cell phone, but she thinks it isn't a good idea for Jan - get her a new fangled one instead.
ReplyDeletePaws crossed for the old grouch to be better.

I wish that lovely man all the best, he so deserves to be well. How awful that that poor dog suffered so. I am a placid person but thins like this make me want to put the owners on the end of as chain and leave them. Sorry rant over. I think a cell phone is a great idea but not sure about that one. lol
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me over at Halloween Spooktacular!
ReplyDeleteI saw the 'old grouch' in the video, he seems a very nice man, hope he is feeling better soon.
purrs,
Mindy
Oh poor poor Shepp! I'm in tears having just watched the clip - poor Shepp.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Mr Crider is ok. I hope he gets better and stronger! Good luck to him and to his colleagues. I hope Shepp's torture and death will not be in vain.
Take care
