THE WINNER IS SERPA

Last night after football practice the grandmonsters stopped by to choose the winner of our treat contest.  We were amazed when we put everything out on the table how many treats there were!!  We also added some leashes, and toys to the pile.  The kids thought it was so cool to see all the flavors, and shapes of the doggy treats.  Even their parents were amazed.  Thirty minutes went by of heated discussions as to which item they thought was the strangest dog treat they had ever seen.  Finally it was down to two.  The NAKED treats that Goose had sent and the YOGURT treats that Otis and Black Pearl had sent.  No one could decide, there was no tie breaker, nada.....Sam wanted the NAKED to win, I wanted the YOGURT...we decided BOTH would win!!!!!

The real winners though is the SERPA rescue that the treats and items will be sent to.  I am sure they will appreciate all you did for them.  Mom is also going to send a donation in Turds name to be given to a pug that needs some medical work done.  She will let SERPA decide where it goes from their wish list.

What Mom really wishes for is a redo, a replay, a rewind. Alot of people have said to her this week, "you seem to be doing so much better".  The truth is she isn't doing better, she is just pretending.  She always use to tell her preschoolers when she was teaching to "use their words" but right now she is even failing at that.  We know time will help heal so we are just waiting it out and missing missing missing Trudie.  Dad picked up some pictures he had developed last week, and at lunchtime today Mom looked at them real fast.  There were many of turd.  We will share them when we get them out of layaway.

We will be sending a prize out to Goose and Otis and Black Pearl soon.  Thank you all so very much for caring about the rescues and letting your hearts shine.

STELLA, SAMMER AND MOMMA
