Sharing the Love - These are for Nat

[Peter2150]

Hi Nat

I thought I'd share with you some of my special friends.

Pete

The first is Bella(Annabella). She is the sweetest Bernese Mountain Dog. She is trainded so if you kneel down with her, she will sit up and put her paws around you and give you a hug.

[Peter2150]

The 2nd is a pair of Westies who I had the pleasure of boarding 5.5 months(didn't want to give them back)

[Peter2150]

The rest of the pictures are of Rico a Standard Poodle. He is a licensed Therapy Dog. He did service at the Fema Childcare center right after the 911 mess in New York. This first picture was posed, by him. All we did was take the picture.

[Peter2150]

Here is Rico with one of his friends at an assisted care retirement center.

[Peter2150]

and a very very special friend at the same facility

(Drove on a 4 lane last night and past a "Pet Smart"-Store with a huuuuuuuge banner saying:
"Puppy Sale" :'( :'( :'( >:(


The only way we can eventually break the cycle of misery,
is to NOT buy pups or other pets from stores. (And Not in "questionable" places...)

We all know that shelters are overflowing with adult animals AND puppies waiting for a HOME. Let's give it to them. :)

[~*Nat*~]

Something else we need to keep in mind....


-{ Quote: "STATISTICS HAVE PROVEN THAT
75% TO 80% OF PET OWNERS
KEEP THEIR ANIMALS 2 YEARS OR LESS!

If most people were responsible pet owners, we would not have problems such as:

Pounds and shelters filled with homeless, neglected and abused animals.
Thousands of unwanted puppies and kittens being born each year.
Eight million animals are being euthanized each year in our shelters.
Hundreds of free to good home ads placed in local papers each week which puts the pet in life threatening situations such as giving the animal to a buncher. Buncher is a term for people who fraudulently obtain animals for illegal commercial sales. They call on these ads frequently, and yes, they will even buy the animal at a lower price than they can get for its sale.
These are some basic steps to follow for a more responsible adoption of your pet." }-


And, Holy Moly! :o Alot of these "Free To Good Home Pets" are more than frequently used as "bait" to train fighting dogs to love to kill. :ouch:


Great Info on what we can do...

While I've seen a few terrible of examples of terrible animal treatment, I've also seen some wonderfully heart warming examples of the highest level of care. I know several people who spent in excess of $6000USD on surgery to help there pets with leg problems. Thats a bunch of money in any language and it quite a measure of love.

Have to tell you a story about the poodle Rico. Just a couple of weeks ago he was in a local park and a toddler was there with his dad. The little fellow tried throwing a toy, but wasn't that coordinated. He would walk around with it and Rico followed nose about an inch from the toy, but he won't take toys from a child. The boy finally dropped it and Rico ran back to the father and layed down. The child came over and took it from Rico, and the show repeated. When Rico picked up the toy the 2nd time and went back to the father, the boy came again and tried to take it a 2nd time. This time rico played keep away by turning his head from side to side. With this the little boy started to cry. Rico looked at him and carefully placed the toy at his feet and let him have it. There were several adults with a tear in their eyes.

Dracula Castle to Be Returned to Owner


-{ Quote: "



Tuesday , May 23, 2006

BUCHAREST, Romania — More than 60 years after it was seized by communists, the Romanian government is to hand back one of the country's most popular tourist sites, the fabled Dracula Castle, to its former owner, the culture minister said Tuesday.

The hand-over ceremony will take place Friday noon in the 14th century castle's museum deep within the fortress in Transylvania, said minister Adrian Iorgulescu at a news conference.

The castle, worth an estimated US$25 million, was owned by the late Queen Marie and bequeathed to her daughter Princess Ileana in 1938. It was confiscated by communists in 1948 and fell into disrepair.

It was inherited by Dominic van Hapsburg, a New York architect who will be at the ceremony on Friday, said Iorgulescu. The Hapsburgs ruled Romania for a period starting in the late 17th century. Under the agreement, the owner will not be allowed to make any changes to the castle for the next three years, Iorgulescu said.

CountryWatch: Romania

Restoration work began in the late 1980s and was partially completed in 1993. It is now one of Romania's top tourist destinations.

While known and marketed as "Dracula's Castle," the Bran Castle never belonged to Prince Vlad the Impaler, who inspired Bram Stoker's Count Dracula character, but the prince is thought to have visited the medieval fortress.

The Gothic fortress, perched on a rock, has appeared in numerous Dracula movies.

At the gates of Bran Castle, peasants sell Dracula sweaters hand-knitted from the thick wool of local sheep, cheesecloth blouses, and Vampire wine. Bran Castle is the most famous of 15 citadels and fortresses in the area, which were built by peasants to keep out marauding armies of Turks and Tartars and cruel local medieval lords.

Another former royal property, the Peles Castle, built in the late 19th century in the mountain town of Sinaia, will be returned to former King Michael, who owned it before it was confiscated by the communist regime in 1948.

Romania passed legislation earlier this year to return property to its former owners and establish a "property fund" to pay damages for assets that cannot be returned. The fund includes stock in state-owned companies that are being privatized, such as utility companies, the Romanian postal service, and the Savings Bank.

I can say "Woof" ! *chirp*

[~*Nat*~]

OK. Today...May 25th...about 3 hrs ago, while being outside in the yard, enjoying the warm breeze from a thunderstorm nearby, ...what do I see ! :o
A cat !! I tempted it with the usual "coochie, coochie cooo" sounds and luring it with food.
Of course he ( yep, I checked) ate like he hasn't gotten food in days. :(

And not to mention that he is thin as a bone.
But you wouldn't believe how lovable he already is.

I don't think he belongs to somebody. And even IF...that person don't deserve him, firstly...if they let him outside, and he's NOT neutered....you know what that means. :-\ And secondly, he stinks :ouch: and I don't think he's been fed by a human in ages ! >:(

Gotta keep him apart from my other one's, in seperate rooms.
What a joy. ::)

If we don't hear anything about a cat his description missing,
I might just as well take him to the vet tomorrow...get him checked out...AND
made "unmanly" !!!! :o :D :o


By the way. Kids and me already deceided to name him
"Merlin". He is such a handsome cat, loving and his EYEESSS :o My Golly !
They are sooo pretty...hypnotic even ! http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/43.gif

I wanted to call him "Mr. Handsome" at first http://img115.exs.cx/img115/9916/z4dwink.gif...but my daughter said it sounds cheesy. Oh well.
"Merlin" for a wondercat, lol !!

http://bestsmileys.com/magic/7.gif



P.S. I hope I'm doing the right thing by taking him in. :-\

Merlin is a nice looking cat Nat. Here's another animal in need of some special care. Maybe a pet psychiatrist.

Lovesick Swan Falls for Swan-Shaped Boat
Reuters
BERLIN (May 26) - A swan has fallen in love with a plastic swan-shaped paddle boat on a pond in the German town of Muenster and has spent the past three weeks flirting with the vessel five times its size, a sailing instructor said Friday.


Peter Overschmidt, who operates a sailing school and rents the two-seat paddle boat on the Aasee pond, said the black swan with a bright red beak has not left the white swan boat's side since it flew in one day in early May.


''It seems like he's fallen in love,'' said Overschmidt. ''He protects it, sits next to it all the time and chases away any sail boats that get anywhere nearby. He thinks the boat is a strong and attractive swan.''


Overschmidt said the swan will figure it out sooner or later but hopes he won't be too heartbroken.


''I'll wish him all the best and hope that he doesn't make the same mistake again,'' said Overschmidt.''

That happened here in the UK at one of the Safari Parks last year.....they took the 'Swan Boat' out of the lake for the Winter assuming the Male swan would get over it's 'crush' but eventually they had to put the boat back on the Lake because the Swan was pining away to the point of dying, and they both lived happily ever after, Swans mate for life.....Now thats what I call LOVE.........:thumb: :-* :-*

With great pride I want to tell the world that my "Little Girl",
who will be 18 in July, has Graduated from school, a few days ago !!!

http://img99.exs.cx/img99/8577/yupi3ti.gif

Yes, I'm a proud mommy 8) .....but I have to admit that I have those strange, fleeting feelings of the "Empty Nest Syndrome" once in a while. LOL.

I know, I know...it's Alllll normal. ;)
{Besides...I still have another, younger one that won't leave to another land for another year. Yep...she wants to be an Exchange student.
She has made up her mind. :D }

I'll survive and her wings aren't clipped for sure.
But it's a bit sad to know that soon she'll be gone to college and then into the Air Force.
She may be going to other countries...which is good.

Yet, those days when families stayed and lived close together are obviously far, far gone.

I left my country too. So I should not complain...should I ?? ;D

-{ Quote: " The Faerie, a special and supernatural being or spirit, is an enchanting and magical creature. Faeries are supposed to assume a human form, either male or female, for good or evil, to meddle in the affairs of mankind. Other creatures that are commonly related to faeries include the following: elves, nymphs, sprites, dryads, nixies, pixies, sylphs. Although they are all not directly related, they are beautiful creatures and all unique in their own ways. Some faerie rings are called pixie rings and consist of toadstools or a circle of mushrooms.
Because faeries are among the most popular mythological creatures of all time, they have been celebrated throughout history in several forms of fine arts. If one were to watch Disney's Fantasia, this fact becomes even more obvious. And with the arrival of New Age culture, it appears as though they have become even more noteworthy. When categorized by contemporaries, they are typically placed in the fabulous creatures category with unicorns and dragons." }-
