Leia your writing is fantastic, thank you for doing this and bringing the shelter to a bigger audience
Jan and Erik the pictures of Tasha really make my day, she looks so happy and settled with her new brother and sister, Remy sounds like a very cool dog.
Thank you for the pics guys

I just hope it has the desired affect! It was my pleasure to write about you two and all your four legged kids and all the great dog washers.

And for Tasha, there's just nothing like a 'Lab welcoming committee". What a lucky little girl! another happy beginning.

Hi Andy! Remy is a big clown but he's good with smaller dogs. Very gentle.....Jinx is pretty much ignoring Tasha which is just like her highness. The house training is going well....she's learned to scratch at the door when she needs to do her business.....she still needs a bit of encouragement to go outside but she gets tons of praise when she does. And not the mention the cookie you get when you go potty outside.

Hey Jan & Erik,

I am so thrilled that little Tasha is acclimating so well to MN & to your loving home. Your pups are beautiful......just like their owners!! Tasha had been through so much during her few months on this earth. It's amazing what a tough, fun, sweet girl she is . I will never forget how she came back to the Shelter after her first adoption....she was a walking skeleton!! It was heartbreaking. I love a happy ending & I know you, my good friends will make a "world of difference in her life"!

You two & your buddies, Julie & Karl are the most incredible, interesting, fun, kiind people I have met in my life time!!!. The music was excellent!.....The friendship even better!...and knowing that Tasha is with you makes so many of us happy. Joanna & Libby had a special afinity to Tasha when she was returned to Shelter. They both loved Tasha too...so I know......There was a lot of good spitit going on!

Jan, your lovely jewelry netted $1045 in reality...because my sisters-in-law bought most of the remaining lot. You did a fantastic job & your jewelry is gorgeous!

You and Erik added a very special spirit to our cause & we are so grateful!! You added a heck of a lot of fun too! I can't wait to reunite!!!

Maureen

Andy - Any chance George's new family could mule the microscope down to you when they come to get George? If so, I need to connect with them and make arrangements.

Anyone heading to Playa soon?

Anyone heading down to Playa soon who would be willing to carry a small microscope (about 3-4 lbs.) to the Peanut Pet Shelter? It's a donation and will fit, wrapped, in a carry on.
Let me know!

Thanks Maureen! It was great to meet you too. I was so excited when the travel editor phoned me the other day to tell me that he had chosen my story! He said that he too is an animal lover and it touched him a lot. This morning I read in the travel section that he is retiring this month, so maybe my report made it in just in time!

Hi Erik.... wow you have her asking to go outside already, damn man you need to get back down here and train some of my dogs !!
Hi Julie, sorry i saw your post too late to contact Georges new family about muling but i am sure we will have no problem getting another fantastic peep to do it for us.
George is all clean fed and ready to teke his trip to the airport and then on to the USA, fingers crossed it will all work out fine this time
