Paw It Forward

Brownie asked for players in "Paw It Forward" so we volunteered to join in the fun. We sure are glad we made that decision. We got a box this weekend from sweet Brownie. It has so many cool toys and treats in it and even a cool neck tie for Sagira. There was also a very cute card from Brownie as well. So here is a video of Sagira and Starr opening the goodies and also a photo of Sagira modeling her new neck tie and goodies.

THANK YOU BROWNIE!

Now...in order to play we agreed to also "Paw It Forward" to three players. So we need three people (inside the US please) to play with us. If you agree to play you will receive a box from us and then you agree to let three others play with you and you send them a box when it is your turn. Sounds like fun doesn't it? So...let me know if you want to play.

I think she likes her

Sagira is really enjoying having a younger puppy in the house to play with. Sagira loves to play with other dogs and is even annoying the puppy because she wants to play ALL the time. Here is a little video of them playing together.

Happy Thanksgiving

Just wanted to say things have been super busy with the new foster puppy. Found out she had tape worms, YUCK. But was put on Droncal to get rid of them. Hailey and Sagira are having so much fun playing together. I will post photos of them as soon as I can.

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope those traveling are safe.

She is here!

This morning we drove an hour and 1/2 to pick up the new foster puppy and her brother Bogey. They were scheduled to be euthanized yesterday but they held them for us since we said we could get them today. Her name was Bacall but we are going to change it to Hailey. She is so cute and reminds us so much of our little one, Sagira.

The dogs are adjusting to the new foster well. Hailey had a very long day. Being taken away from her brother (he is in a new foster home as well), getting a bath, being introduced to our dogs, etc. Poor girl is exhausted. Hopefully she will play a little more tomorrow.

Here are some pics of her from today.

Where are we going? huh? huh?

Our new foster

We are getting a new foster puppy on Saturday. I was looking online and saw this cute little girl and read that she only had 72 hours left at the shelter. She is a really high kill shelter. I went into panic mode and found a rescue group to take her if I would provide the foster home...so here we are. She reminds me so much of our baby Sagira. I am anxious to meet her and hope Sagira enjoys having a younger dog around to play with.

WOW!

First of all...I would like to thank Addie, Lucie and Hailey for hosting the Halloween costume contest. It was a lot of fun. I would also like to thank all of our friends, family, Weimaraner Addict friends and Wish Upon A Hero helpers that voted for Starr and Sagira and helped them win.

Here is a little video of Starr and Sagira opening their box from Addie, Lucie and Hailey...



The prizes... We were super excited about the Go Dog toy. We drove all over town a few months ago looking for Go Dog products after they were recommended by someone on Weim Addict.

New leash and collar

We went to Pet People yesterday and had a 30% off coupon for a leash and collar combo. So we picked out a new one for our little Sagira. It looks really pretty with her blue eyes. She was prancing around like she just knew she had a new collar and leash on, it was really cute.

Another weekend over

I wish the weekend was just beginning instead of coming to a close...but what can you do? This weekend was so nice. We spent a lot of time outside playing frisbee with the dogs. We did an adoption today for my Weim rescue group. Those are always bitter sweet. It is great to see the Weimaraner going to a new family, but also sad to see the foster home have to say goodbye to the Weim they have been caring for.

Still trying to catch up on photos. Here are some from last week.

One for the cats

Our training club had a TON of gift baskets for raffle prizes this past weekend. You could choose which one you wanted. I went after the 2 that had the $25 gift cards to Petsmart in them and won one of them. Mystic sure was happy she got some new toys.

Photobucket

She can't wait to get in them...

Phew...have been so busy

With Sagira's first trial and birthday over I am finally able to catch up on some things.

For today here is a little video clip of Sagira enjoying one of her birthday toys. She loves anything that squeaks and learned her famous head shake move from her big sister, Starr.

Sagira's Party Pics

So Sunday our baby girl turned the big TWO. We had a party for her at the dog park. It was a lot of fun and she got more gifts than I think I ever received. She is so popular and cool (unlike her mom and dad, haha).

We cut out brownies in the shape of dog bones (these were a hit)

We played fun games like bobbing for hot dogs

Nacho tried to cheat and dig his hot dogs out

Scarlet won and had all 10 pieces out within 13 seconds (wow, that is FAST)

Photobucket

After that the owners played the toy exchange game. Everyone drew a number and you drew in your order number and had choice to get a new toy and open it or steal someone elses. It was a lot of fun...

After the party we had cake at home again so her brothers could celebrate with her since they didn't get to go to the dog park. Okay...I am SO impressed with the boys in this pic. They sat and STAYED with food this close to them. Good boys!

Starr was the first one to eat her cake of course

Photobucket

and she stole Sagira's too!
