Manca ormai poco al Capodanno, tanti si apprestano a festeggiare l’arrivo del 2011 con gli usuali "botti di fine anno". Insieme alla Lega Nazionale per la Difesa del Cane invito tutti coloro che amano la vita e rispettano la vita altrui a non acquistare i botti di capodanno per festeggiare l'arrivo del nuovo anno. Invito perciò a non utilizzare i fuochi artificiali che sono causa di morte, ferimenti e traumi per cani, gatti, animali domestici e uccelli.
Chi ama la vita, la natura e gli animali preferisce il tradizionale, gioioso e alla moda, "botto dello spumante".
Qui si può firmare una petizione "No ai botti di Capodanno": www.firmiamo.it/noaibottidicapodanno
Nei gatti, e soprattutto nei cani, un botto crea forte stress e spavento al punto da indurli a fuggire dai propri giardini e recinti, per scappare dal rumore a loro insopportabile, finendo spesso vittime del traffico o di ostacoli non visibili al buio.
A San Silvestro chi possiede cani e gatti deve seguire alcuni accorgimenti: se si tratta di gatti, rinchiuderli in luoghi tranquilli (garage, bagno, ecc.), possibilmente chiudendo le finestre in modo che anche i bagliori, oltre ai rumori, siano diminuiti; comportarsi in modo del tutto normale, soprattutto nel caso dei cani, senza cercare di rassicurare e di accarezzare l'animale se questo mostra paura; se il cane vede che il proprietario non si agita, di conseguenza si sentirà più tranquillo.
Non utilizzare i botti sarà un segno di civiltà e sensibilità anche nei confronti di tutti gli operatori, in particolar modo i Vigili del Fuoco, che il primo dell'anno devono intervenire per interventi di soccorso di animali rifugiatisi in ogni dove.
By far the newest bus at Alford, and one of the newest and most sophisticated buses currently in preservation, is K1 GRT, the first articulated bus to be bought by Grampian Transport (later to grow into First), and the only articulated bus ever bodied in Scotland.
My husband and I took Jackson to the mall yesterday evening...it is an open air mall that is dog friendly. As we walked around, we found this dog statue. Let's just say that Jackson was VERY intersted in it (hey, he's a friendly dog). He was sniffing, and sniffing, and when he wasn't getting a response, he began to bark at the statue. EVERYONE walking around started laughing at him...echoes of laughter around us (my husband and I included). I am so glad that Jackson doesn't get his feelings hurt by being laughed at!
After a few minutes, we decided that maybe it was mean to let him continue to be frustrated, and walked away. But believe me, we will go back and do this again next time I need a good laugh :)

Sorry that it cut the flower off in "Barriers"
This lil guy decided to visit while I was having lunch. He was a really nice looking dog, however he was in desperate need of a bath, and had some kind of paint or something on his fur haha. Either way he was happy to run around and get into mischief.
Boomer waits in the corner of the kitchen closest to the biscuit jar. I know what is on his mind, he is wishing for treats. For this photo I just set the camera on the floor and guessed at the composition.

For a couple of years, it's been a tradition to do a portrait session for our Irish setter, Ivy, on her Birthday. Ivy's a rescue, so we don't really know when her birthday is, but because she's an Irish setter, it made sense to celebrate it on St. Patrick's Day. This year, Ivy is twelve years old.

jackson was very curious about this similar yet very different looking dog...it seems as though a paintball gun had gotten the best of it. he then looked at us to try to make sure the same fate would not happen to him!
