Happy Thanksgiving

Hi all.....still in Louisiana, in a very nice park. My master likes it alot, coz she goes to this building and plays with some kind of machine. She said sometimes it even gives back some of the paper she puts in it. I think she called it a 'slot machine'.

At our last camp site, I met a bunch of cuties, so my master took pictures this time.

Our neighbor next door had this girl poodle called Lulu, about 1 year old. It is interesting that this dog was named after a restaurant in Alabama that both my masters loved eating at. Lulu's restaurant is named after Jimmy Buffets sister! My masters love Jimmy Buffet



The next little one that we met was truely a little one. It is a yorkie by the name of Jazzy, and she is 71/2 weeks old

She followed her master where ever he walked, kind of funny, like a little shadow. She wanted play with everyones shoelaces.

Well, guess I better stop for now, my masters are holding up my new halter, meaning its time for a walk.
I know this is a short post, just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!!
See ya later....Tuck

Good Morning

Hi all...we are in Louisiana enjoying the great weather and green grass. I have met several other dogs, but my master forgot her camera....so anyway. One was a teacup Yorkie and his master from Wisconsin. They are looking for a new home, coz they use to live in Mexico during the winter, but with all that is happening I guess they'll stay in Texas. Most of all the dogs I've met are smaller than me...what great fun. Oh, I guess there were two that probably could have had me for breakfast, but my master kept me away from them.

If you have not noticed, there are some new things on my blog. Look to the right and you will see some emblems. One is freekibble and the other Animal rescue. My master thought that maybe we could help out with these. You click on one, and it takes you to their site WOW, just like that you help feed my little brothers and sisters. My master has been 'clicking' free kibble and Animal rescue for several years now.

Our friends in Nebraska just got a new dog from the Humane Society by the name of Abby. Here we are looking at a picture of her on my other masters computer.


This is a shot of my little sister jumping for her HotDog, she jumped so high she jumped right out of the picture. As you can see, I don't get that excited for some stupid little piece of meat.



And heeeeeeres ABBY.....ain't she cute. We haven't met her yet, but can't wait...what a looker! Look at those eyes, they tell a story. She was rescued by my masters' friends (the ones who have Jackson) and are giving her a second chance in life.....that is soooooo cool. I think she is 5 months old and of a somewhat mixed breed of yellow lab/golden retriever/hound?

Any way, I will keep you all updated on the trials and tribulations of Abby...Until her owners decide to put up a blog too.

Time to get off and take a walk in this new park....new smells and lots and lots of squirrels!

Later....Tuck

I'm Back again..really

Hi all...my master and I have had a sit down talk about her keeping up with our blog. She had her other knee done in September and just didn't feel like writing. Plus, other than Jackson at our place, there really weren't any new dogs to write about.

But we are on the move again, new dogs and cats are all around. My master has promised to keep up with my journeys.

We are in Alabama right now and I haven't seen any dogs here at this RV park. We went driving yesterday to see the sights and found out that Alabama has a NO DOGS ALLOWED policy for their beaches. What a bummer. There is an island that we can go to that dogs are allowed, but its a bit of a drive.

We have been to some great places, with the strangest smells. My master tells me that what I am smelling is animals that aren't around Nebraska....like armadillo and alligator. Jeez, I don't think I'd like to meet them, but they smell good.

The park that were in now has lots of trees around and things flying and jumping. We are going for a walk soon, so maybe I'll investigate. (if my master will let me).

Since its been awhile that I last posted, I catch you up on some neat friends that I came across this last month.

In Louisiana, there was Buddy (a long haired Chihuahua) who liked to eat my masters' pocket treats. He is from Missouri and gets to travel in a motor home. When I first saw him, he was sitting up on the dash, pleased as can be...what a show off!


That's Buddy to the left, cute thing,huh?








Then, while still in Louisiana, my master met some people that had two rat terriers, but we didn't get to meet them. They weren't mean or anything, just shy in meeting new friends.
Rats (hee-hee) may be next time.
Here is a picture of them. Their names are Roscoe and Daisy
and their owners are from Michigan/Minnesota.
They liked the pocket treats too!
Let me explain something. Pocket treats are something my masters carry in their pockets all the time. That is so when they met new dogs, they ask permission to give a treat to the dog and make friends with it.....so tricky! I'd make friends with anyone too, if they had treats!!! Any way, the treats are Pupperoni and we just love em.
While in Mississippi, I met a couple of guys camping right next to us. At first I was scared of them coz they didn't have a house like ours, it flapped and moved with the wind. I think my master called it a 'tent'. Any way, these guys turned out to be really nice and I sort of felt bad that I had growled at them. So my master let me go say HI, all by myself. The one guy just petted me and hugged me for a long time...turns out he had just lost his dog and was feeling really low. I think I made him happy for a little bit, gave him lots and lots of wet kisses!
Well, I think I am done for now...I need to go for a walk...I'm sure I will remember more stuff but I can't hold it much longer..got to find a tree!
See ya....Tuck

A little vacation

Hi all...my master felt that she needed a little vacation from writing (like she is soooo busy) but any way, she promised to write today, so here we are.

There has been alot of rain around here, making our walks kind of interesting. Puddles to jump, frogs and toads to chase and lots and lots of bugs. Luxi can't stand any kind of bug, she is such a wuse. I watched her run from one room to the other just because of one little fly! Any way, its suppose to rain again today and be very hot and muggy. I don't like hot and muggy coz my master won't run us with her bike. Sez its bad for us, but I think she just doesn't like it for herself.

There has been a bunch of new dogs here, some for a day and some that have stayed several days. Didn't get pictures of all of them....soooo many. But there is one dog I have to write about, coz it created quite a stir around here.

It involves a Boston Terrier.

Last week, someone called the office (where my masters work) and wanted to know if any one had lost a little dog. It was roaming around their neighborhood and they thought maybe it had run away from the camp sites. No one had reported a lost dog here, so my masters thought the people that called the office would take care of that poor little dog. They did water and feed it, but they didn't bring it in out of the heat, so it ran away........to our RV park. Someone found it and brought to the office. There was a family here that said they'd take it if no one claimed it.

Now, how lucky can you get...that little dog had someone already to take him. Trouble was, he was hurt, couldn't walk very well. But luck continued...that family said that they would take him to the doctor.....and would keep him, requardless of the outcome...WOW....thats a lucky dog.

The family is a military family, heading to their new posting in Virginia. He is in the Coast Guard and they just happened to stay here on their way there. The dog is a Boston Terrier about 1-11/2 years old (what the doc said) and was loaded with fleas. Also, it appeared to have back problems from either getting hit by a car or by someone kicking him. They think someone just dumped him along the side of the road and left him. Anyway...they named him DABNER and he will be a part of the family of five and another dog called TEXAS. I love a goooooood ending..don't you?

Here is picture of Dabner...didn't get one of Texas, but I think he was part bulldog, boxer.



Well, don't you think he is just the cutest thing! This is a picture Dabner looking up at my master with a treat in her hand. She is feeding him my pupperoni! Oh well, guess he deserves alittle treat. I guess I will stop for now, will try and stay up on the writing (or my master will)
Take care, Tuck

Memorial weekend

Yeah!...new dogs have come to town, I mean the campsite. I am soooo excited to smell all those new smells. There are a bunch of people around too, tall and short ones. I'm not so sure the small ones know how to be quiet, We'd get into trouble if we talked as loud as they do. Oh well, they are puppies, er... kids, so they get to get spoiled.

My master went around and took some pictures of the new dogs, I haven't met them yet. But I did want to show you Buddy and Freds "after the hair cut "pictures...they look so good!

























These next set of pictures are of the new dogs that I have not met yet, but sure want too. They are super fine looking!

This is Zoie, she is a 8 years old Pap-westie mix and next to her is Mitzey, a 11 year old min-pin...isn't that dress just the greatest! I don't think Mitzey liked getting her picture taken, she stuck her tongue out at my master!

















Across from our RV site there are five dogs that I have not met yet, but they sure are a mix of dogs. Most of them are rescues, just like us and they each have a great story to tell, but I won't have time today to tell it all. I will give you the group shots and then, maybe tomorrow, the stories.


















So, until later, hope you enjoy your holidays like I am...and remember to remember those who fought for us and paid the ultimate price...men, women and K-9s. Tuck
