Today, my plan was to share some photos of my dogs on their first morning outing to the backyard. It's a brisk, windy day, which usually sparks extra bursts of energy and playfulness.

Before we get to the photos, I want to share some information with you about my good friend Blueberry. She's a stunning 8-year old greyhound, and a member of the fun-loving, adventurous Tales and Tails pack. Blueberry recently developed a lump on her head, for which her parents quickly sought veterinary attention. After surgery, the pathology report indicated neurofibrosarcoma, a form of cancer. All of us with pets are well aware of how quickly vet bill mount up, especially when you're talking x-rays, lab work and surgery. While one surgery is behind her, Blueberry's future will include additional treatment and possibly more surgery. I hope you'll visit Blueberry's Christmas Auction. There you can browse items up for bidding, and learn of other way to help, such as monetary donations, or auction item donations. I've added a link in the upper right-hand side of Dogs Rock to a secure PayPal donation account. We love you, and are pulling for you Miss Blueberry!!
We're participating in today's Saturday Pet Blog Hop, hosted by Life With Dogs, Two Little Cavaliers, and Confessions of the Plume. Please enjoy our photos from this morning, and hop along to the other sites. You're sure to have lots of fun!!

ReplyDeleteDiane and Cosmo
Ohhh! That makes sense about your team! Your doggies could probably help Michigan too! Cosmo does agility when he's not jumping through goalposts!
ReplyDeleteDiane and Cosmo
Thanks for the link! We love Blueberry too!
ReplyDeleteThose action shots always catch my breath, you're so good at catching the beautiful moments of them playing, Kristin!
I agree with Priscilla - you really have fabulous photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info on Blueberry's auction, and your link. Here's hoping all goes well for Blueberry!
Its amazing what contorted forms a dog gets in to which you only really notice in a still picture. In the last picture it looks like they are about to end up in a big doggy heap under the garden fence. I hope Blueberry is going to be okay. To us our dogs are our children but to others they are just dogs and are no so important.
ReplyDeleteGreat play time! I have extra energy in the cooler weather too. Isn't it grand?! :)
ReplyDeleteWaggin at ya,
Roo
Wow, spectacular photos again! I especially love the one of Zoe sprinting straight toward you! I also love the 4 dog one, with the shadow being one dog!
ReplyDeleteThanks for highlighting our buddy Blueberry!
Looks like a fun morning. Bet they put a smile on your face as you drink your morning beverage.
