Too Cute!

     This weekend I was able to visit my friends at the animal shelter. I met the cats and their kittens. They found a certain interest in my shoe strings. They would pounce on them and make sure my shoes did not leave the room. Mum says I need to tie my shoes better. I guess she's right since my shoe strings got mauled.   
    I met a husky at the shelter named Rascal. He was a nice old... well, rascal. The only thing was Rascal looked so sad. You could easily tell Rascal did not enjoy life at the shelter. I tried to cheer him up with a dog biscuit. He took it and put it on his dog bed. I felt better when he did eat another treat I gave him. He would be a great addition to a family to live where it is much more quiet. I hope a good family adopts him, someone has already paid his adoption fee.
     Speaking of sled dogs, mum found an old video of Hoover when he was a young pup. If you watch the video, you will have a hard time figuring out who he is because he has 11 siblings. I'm glad there were lots of volunteers to help the pups grow up to be big strong healthy dogs. Once again, we got Hoover from the  Illinois Alaskan Malamute Rescue Association . Don't forget, Northern Lights Sled Dog Rescue has some great dogs looking for a home, too.
    In the first video you will see the pups getting very messy eating a meal from a large pan. We think we spotted Hoover, he had milk on his head. He was a big eater then and he is an even bigger eater now. 
    In the second video, the puppies are a little older and curious about the world. I'm glad I got to see Hoover in his sausage stage. 

    I'm happy to report my fort is still standing from Friday. Hoover has been too busy outside to come destroy it. I'd like to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving! Eat lots of good turkey!

  1. I agree with you about Rascal. He is a sweet dog who just wants to be in a good home. The look in his eyes tells it all. Maybe someone will come to the Shelter this week and take him home. Most look at the puppies without really realizing all the training and time they need to become a good pet. Again I wish I had a big place to take all the Sr.s from the Shelter. I would love that! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and your fur buddies.
