As you must know by now we are now volunteering for All Texas Dachshund Rescue but our hearts are still with the dogs of DROH, after all I was rescued by them, as was all my brothers. But things change sometimes. We will be supporting all the Dachshund Rescue Groups in Texas, including DROH, and soon you will see their logos on my side bar. 

I just wanted to give you guys an update on the big bucks ATDR made at the Reliant Dog Show to help care for  the previous doggies in our care.

$3600.00 green papers.

A record for ATDR.

My Aunt Judy & Diana, we all came over from DROH at the same time, raised $2000.00 in donations just from their harnesses. I don't know how much my kisses raised but I just know I was exhausted after kissing for 5 hours, non stop.

Remember I asked you guys what dress or harness, I should wear to the dog show? Well I picked the one that was the popular favorite. It's not very clear, but it shows the detail of my dress and cap. I was gonna wear my yellow harness, which is the Mommy's favorite, on Sunday but that old Aurthur-RI-Tis meanie came calling. Holly cat crap!! as Frankie Furter would say and God only knows what Puddles would say!

The Mommy picked the picture below as her favorite picture she took of me. I'm staring intently at something on the floor. She said it was probably some dude I kissed, that fell out because I am such a good kisser....heehaw.

Mommy has been so busy, handling Shelby's Vet Fund, sending thank you e-mails and answering so many e-mails from so many kind peoples, that we haven't been able to do much visiting and commenting on blogs. Please excuse us but Shelby is the center of our lives right as she should be. 

The Mommy here............This morning Mona finished taking the last pill of 4 she was to take every day for 4 days. The others are to be given as needed. It's called Rimadyl. I'm to watch her carefully. If she starts tucking her tail between her legs, limps or whines when I touch her tail, she get a pill. She appears to be OK, but doesn't jump up and down from the furniture as she usually does. I will be shopping for some doggie steps or ramps this weekend. This morning as we were getting out of bed she tried to jump down like always put couldn't . I think that's when it hit be that my baby really does have this debilitating thing just like I do. I would do anything to take the pain away from my girl.

I'm back but I gotta go now. The Mommy is crying all of a sudden for some reason.


Love, kissis and {{{huggies}}}
