we love you miss L.!!!!

an important message from phil & L...

hey you...yeah, you out there!...do you know what today is?? well, thanks to one of mom's she who blogs buddies, callista, we do! it is puppy mill awareness day. as rescued dogs, we are begging you that the next time you would like to add a member of the canine species to your family, instead of looking in a pet store, please consider visiting your local animal shelter.so many of us find ourselves in a new home as a cute puppy, but then, as we grow, the owners are less and less attentive to us. sometimes we aren't quite what the owner was looking for. sometimes our owners have to move to a place where we are no longer welcome. & sometimes, our owners die. no matter...we need you & your loving home!!L. was in sad circumstances two times before finally coming to her cushy alpha female position in our home. her first "family" didn't want her as she grew, & she was banished to the outside on a chain. eventually, her sad howls drove the owners crazy (good thing!) & she was put up for adoption. her next family was a very loving one, but within 6 short months one of the children had such severe allergies that L. had to go...again. now, 7+ years later she is mistress of the dog bed & all things meat.me...well, you can read my story here. mom says that she doesn't understand how someone can just decide you aren't right for them anymore. but that is ancient history for me!! i am almost 5 years in my little piece of sunlight for napping with biscuits & football tosses galore!

school daze...

well, boyworld is finally back to school...their time is now occupied with things other than us. of course, this means less football throws.but the upside is that L. & i are much less likely to end up in an appliance box & there is a greater possibility of being a part of a tasty science experiment! it also means earlier mornings & that means earlier breakfast n' biscuit access! L. & i have tried to get in the spirit of things but we basically both agree...when boyworld is quietly working on assignments, the time is ripe for us to take more naps!!honestly, we don't get all the fuss about things like pencils...papers...books...(ok, so occasionally we might chew one of these items, but not much)...
hey, i'd trade an ol' piece of wood for a yummy biscuit any day! now, get back to work boys...i'm studying naps...
