No Kill Day

The Austin City Council will officially proclaim March 11th "No Kill Day" in Austin, Texas!

I love that I live in a city that's working hard to make it 100% no kill. I think every animal deserves a chance at a happy life. So celebrate No Kill Day with your furry family members on March 11th.

I'm coming back....again

Ok, so I've been having trouble keeping up with my blog, and I think I'm back for good! My husband and I decided we're going to start getting our act together now that we're in Austin and start working on our dream of owning a house and then starting up a pet supply store. I'm going to start taking a sewing class so I can learn how to make some fun doggy stuff, so look for me on Etsy soon! (hopefully). Well thats it for now, but hopefully their will be more posts about all the doggy stuff to do in Austin! Maybe I'll post some people stuff as well....this town in full of awesome activities.

Christmas 2011

Well...It was a very interesting Christmas!! My husband got a speeding ticket and my brother in law got his wallet stolen on Christmas Eve..boo cops and thieves! My sister accidentally dropped my husbands phone after taking a picture of me and my husband. Luckily it didn't crack the screen, but the outside of the phone is pretty beat up. Other than that it was nice being with family and especially having our pup in our lives! We sure did miss Jack though. He seemed to enjoy Christmas more than Tonks. But we were able to get some great pictures of Tonks in front of my parents Christmas Tree.

MIA

My husband and I have been busy packing and moving for the past month. We're finally all moved in to our new home. We'll be living with my mother in law for three months and then off to Austin, TX. I can't wait for this move. I'm a little scared, but very excited as well. I just hope our dogs don't mind the change! Tonks was pretty nervous during our move to my mother in laws home, but I think she's doing good now.

Smile!

Gus Gus

My friends dog is probably one of the cutest big dogs I have ever seen (besides Tonks..of course)! This is Gus Gus-We think he's a Collie, Airdale mix. Or...Collie, Irish Wolfhound..He's pretty big. He's just a pup and look how huge he is! Unfortunately, my friend Taryn lives all the way in Colorado, so I haven't been able to meet him yet. Hopefully, I'll be able to visit both of them soon! Enjoy...
