I came across this item today:
An Associated Press-Petside.com poll released Tuesday found that half of all American pet owners consider their pets as much a part of the family as any other person in the household; another 36 percent said their pet is part of the family but not a full member.
Lightweights. A real dog person considers the humans and the dogs to be part of the pack.
I got this message from a cousin of my husband’s – a coworker of his needs to find a home for two Labrador Retrievers that have been together all their lives. Gary and I already have 3 dogs at our house, so we can’t take these two. Hopefully someone reading this will want them, or know of someone else who might.
Please pass this on. Thanks!
Two Labs in Need of a Home
Cookie and Coco
Even if you can’t take them, please pass this around!
Contact: Katherine at:kjmorris74@yahoo.com“As many of you know, we are moving in just 2 weeks. Unfortunately, I have still not been able to find a good home for Cookie and Coco . We’re not able to take our beloved doggies with us and I’ve been desperately trying to find a home for both of them ‘together’. They were raised together and pine without each other. The Lab Rescue has already said that they would probably separate them, so this is my last resort.
Recently I tried to take Coco out in my car alone and she TOTALLY refused to even get into the car without Cookie…..!!!! She absolutely pulled back on her haunches until Cookie was by her side. Both doggies are in great health, have been spayed and have ID chips implanted under the skin.
Cookie turned 3 December 10th and Coco will be 3 April 1st. Cookie is my mellow-yellow, and just loves her tummy rubbed. Coco is adorably funny and lives for her “ball.” She also loves the water….. Cookie loves lots of attention. Both doggies are loyal and love to walk. They have been raised with my 3 kids running around all over the place, and have survived Sammy’s constant hugging and love of ‘dress-up’, so they are fantastic family dogs. This is by far one of the most difficult decisions I have ever had to make, but under the circumstances I have no choice.Please, please forward these pics to all your friends to help find a great home for these fabulous doggies. They are just adorable and it’s heartbreaking to let them go. In a perfect world, I hope that we could find someone local so that we can still keep in touch and visit them. I pray that someone somewhere can help us keep Cookie and Coco together, and love them just as much as we do. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Lacy Being Bathed
"I hate this!!"
Lacy in a frenzy of activity
Lacy got into something nasty while were were walking today. Thankfully it was not a skunk! Here she is getting a bath in the sink – which she really did not like. Afterwards, she ran around in a frenzy to celebrate the end of her bath. This helped her air dry too. The third image has a nice motion blur.
No, not with swords or such. This is a game our dogs play with the neighboring dogs. They bark, snap, and run back and forth along the fence that divides the yards. Despite the serious looks, this really is a game.
