Happy St. Pawtrick’s Day!

12 Comments

Last night we held one of my favorite fundraising events for the animals at our shelter… St. Pawtrick’s Day! It’s a fun, laid back event where people come to eat, drink, and hang out — all with their pooch! It was held at Dogtopia, a daycare/boarding place we have a great relationship with, and featured a Doggie Brew Thru (chicken & beef broth!), a doggie bar from the store Bark, and a craft beer tasting – for the humans – from a local microbrewery called Baying Hound Aleworks. The turnout was great:

(Can you guess who my favorite party goers were?)

Hope you all have a wonderful & safe St. Patty’s Day!

Got another Baxter update tonight. SO happy I only have to go one more day without him!

“Hi Juliana,  I spent the day visiting a friend but just before I left I saw Mr Baxter….we had a nice walk….pooped and peed too.  : -) As you can see he is fine…See ya Big Bruno”

As you can see, Big Bruno is keeping me updated on everything – ha! And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Today’s video isn’t as adorably cute, in fact it mostly just shows that he is alive (yay!), happy, and being totally spoiled.

Thanks again Bruno for checking in on Baxter!

Since that video is super short, I’ll also leave you with some Valentine’s Day behind the scenes outtakes.

Baxter at Sniffers Update

5 Comments

Baxter’s hero Big Bruno visited Baxter over the weekend during his stay at doggy day care. I was beyond thrilled to get an update — and a super positive one at that! Bruno said Baxter is doing great, and I’m sure this visit helped Baxter feel even more comfortable in this new, unfamiliar place.

First, he texted me this. I was happy just to see a picture of mister Bax! Look at that waggy tail : -)

Then Bruno emailed me over this video, which I can’t stop watching!

Seeing my boy so happy puts me at ease while I’m twelve hours away and unable to take care of him myself. I’m so thankful for people like Big Bruno who look out for him while I’m gone. Still, I can’t wait to go pick him up in a few days!

Shippin’ Out

I found out on Monday that I’m going away this weekend on family business, and unfortunately Baxter can’t come.  With Jasmine’s House being full of puppies, I had to find a place for him to stay in only a little bit of time. I won’t trust just anyone with my precious Bax, and I knew exactly who to call. MCHS works closely with a daycare called Sniffers Doggie Depot and I knew they would take great care of Baxter. I called up the owner, who I work with for events like Howl-o-ween, and she said she could fit him in no problem. Phew!

So Baxter is putting on his party hat and heading out to Sniffers for the long weekend.

Just kidding, do you really think he would let himself be seen in a PINK cowboy hat?

Yeah, definitely not.

I’ll be missing this little man all weekend, but I’m so thankful that he’ll be in good hands. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to blog the beginning of next week, but you can be sure that I’ll update on how Baxter’s stay is going (or went) as soon as I can.

Have a great weekend!
