Friday's Friend

Hey!  Are you looking for a companion to help you de-stress after a long day at work or sitting in that crazy traffic? You should see my humans after some of their commutes- I can always tell when it's been bad because they come home with their hair standing straight up and eyes bulging out.  It's my job to help them relax so they can enjoy their evening- petting me, of course!!

Well, if you're looking for a companion, Friday's Friend spotlight features "Camille."    This is her:

Camille had a ruff start. She was born in the fall of 2010 and had a litter of seven kittens when she was little more than a kitten herself! Now I don’t always understand why some people want to have a kitty (when they could have a dog), but I sure admire a mom who takes care of her little ones – that’s really important! Her kittens have been adopted and now she needs a human and a home of her own. If you or someone you know can give her a safe and loving home please visit the PetConnect website look for Camille PetConnect Rescue.

My HERO- A Foster Parent

VIPs (Very Important People)

I got to thinking last night while I was walking with my Dad, that I’m a very lucky boy! I haven't always have such a wonderful home and a great human.  And that there are many really deserving dogs (oh yeah, and cats) that are in cages in shelters who are very sad because they don’t have a family or person of their own. I wanted to tell you about wonderful people who help - they’re called FOSTERS, and they are my HEROES!

"My friend Piper- found his Forever Home"
Rescuers take dogs and cats out of shelters and bring them to the foster’s homes. Fosters take care of dogs and cats until their forever people can find them. They give these animals love and care for them like they were their own. Fosters are FANTASTIC! But there aren’t enough fosters for all the cats and dogs who need them. If you want to find out more about becoming a foster please visit my friends at Pet Connect Rescue (PetConnect Rescue).  Check it out- you'll be glad that you did.  

Tell them Noah sent you!!  :)

And, a special thanks to Barbara Kertress of PetConnect Rescue for submitting this article to me (even though she works with cats- she's a cool lady).

Been on Vacation

Hello-  Sorry I haven’t written much lately, been on vacation in the Dogminica ReBarklick.  I got to lay out by the pool, dogpaddle some laps, drink sodas, water, feast on international dog foods and treats and take long walks on the beach.  You would not believe the lassies in bikinis, oh my, uh…… well…….uh….., this is a family-friendly blog, so I best be polite, they would make you drool- oh, I’d love to see Lulu dressed like that!   Took a ride on this huge truck to see the jungles and people who lived there –what life is like. This truck made a Hummer H2 (which I really want) look small.  We had trouble getting across one of the rivers- the guy had to back up and try again twice!!  It was so cool!! The humans were scared but not me!! Then,I went on a tour around town to see the city. I took a sky cab tram up the side of the mountain to get a view of the city. Saw a fort,   Had a great time- had to return here before my humans returned from their trip (I just made it- and they are none the wiser- except mom found the umbrella and flower behind my ear…….. she just smiled…  ) so I am back to writing, my regular schedule. (I’ll share a few pics with you as time allows.)


Here's one to start with........... this is the resort where I stayed.

Friday's Friend

For those wondering, yes, I know it's Thursday and I'm posting "Friday's Friend" on  Thursday, but there is a pawthod in my madness ..... posting today allows the email to go out and search engines time to pick up my writings therefore gaining attention to my friends looking for homes.  Pretty smart dog, aren't I?

Got another cat to introduce you to this week.   Take a look at this cat's pic.

"Griff"
And here's some info. about him:

This handsome (for a cat) boy was born in August of 2009 and he’s quite a character! He loves to play with the other cat in his foster home and he enjoys a good snuggle with his foster dad. So far, curiosity hasn’t gotten this cat in trouble; Griff loves to explore and watch the birds in his backyard (from the safety of his home – Griff is an indoor kitty). He’ll keep you laughing with his antics! If you’d like to meet Griff, please visit the PetConnect Rescue website: PetConnect Rescue .

Introducing Kona- PetConnect Rescue

My Dad went across town on Saturday to photograph another dog for PetConnect Rescue.  I love it when he does this because it means he's helping other dogs and cats find "Forever Homes."   I try not to get jealous but when he comes home with a strange dogs smell all over his clothes- sometimes I just have to pin him down and "remind" him who he BELONGS to.  

Anyway, meet Kona.....Dad says he's a fun dog- wanted to play the whole time he was there...... for information on adoption, go to www.petconnectrescue.org.

Friday's Friend

Yup, got two more friends to introduce you to this week.  I was on vacation away from my humans (I got to be spoiled by some great friends down the street) last week and didn't have much access to the internet.  So, I want to write another "Friday's Friend"!!

Meet Commander and Commander!!  YAY!! TWO HUGE DOGS TO RUN AND PLAY AND WRESTLE AND HAVE FUN AND... oops... sorry... got carried away.....

Captain and his brother Commander are Foxhound mix brothers who are now 1 yr old. They were given up to a shelter when their family decided they had no time for dogs. Sweet and affectionate, Captain is great with other dogs as well as children, but probably should not be in a home with cats. While he is friendly with other dogs, he can be a bit overwhelming to dogs who can’t match his energy level. Captain is the more active of the brothers and seems to have an endless supply of energy. He enjoys any kind of play that involves being active, but also enjoys chew toys and bones. Captain is crate-trained, housebroken, neutered, and up-to-date on shots. Since these Foxhounds are natural hunters, the ideal home would have some acreage, or at least a high fenced yard. If you would like to know more about Captain, please complete an online application. Then call Cheri at 301-655-3349 .
These two sound like ideal dogs for someone who is active in exercising and stuff too...  check them out at www.petconnectrescue.org. 

Friday's Friend

I've got a new friend to introduce you to this week.  Meet Cody. This one actually sounds like a cool cat -I'd like to meet- (did I say that? my editor probably snuck that in to be polite).

This cool cat's name is Cody and is only 9 months old, but don’t let that fool you – he's a playful kitten at heart! He love wrestling with the other foster kittens and cats and is an expert at chasing a little red dot that my foster mom calls a laser pointer. When the other kitties aren't in the mood, I even try to play with the dog that lives here. He’s not as fast, but I enjoy trying to catch his tail when its wagging. If you’re looking for a fun companion, then I’m your guy! I’d love to find my forever home with a person or family that has a cat or a dog that I can play with and a nice lap or two where I can snuggle. If that’s you – you can find out more about me at PetConnect Rescue .


If you're looking for a family cat, this one sounds specially cool- be sure to check him out!!    (I think my vacation from my humans has weird-ed out my brain cells).
