Taking a Break

No update today except to say look at the Adele and Roxie blogs. Everyone is doing great. They played and played outdoors. Mabel dropped in for a play session. Seems some pups she loves, others she says you are okay. They do have the ones that catch their fancy.

Cali LOVES, LOVES, LOVES the puppies. It's a riot.

Tonight we are going to have TV time and well get draped in dogs. I hope that is okay. Stay tuned to the regular update tomorrow. 

Special note: Big hugs goes out to Kona's mom, and dad and Kona. Seems Jack is back in hospital and is very ill. Prayers, please.

Our thoughts and prayers go to Kathy and Jack. I have never met Kathy in person but I feel like I have through your blog. Positive thoughts go to Jack and hope he recovers. Life can be so difficult sometimes. Hugs to Kona who must be wondering why his human daddy is ill. Thinking of you all.

My very best wishes to Kathy, Jack and Kona. We hope for a quick and complete recovery for Kona's Dad.

Kathy I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you either but as Anne says I feel as if I know you through these blogs. . My thoughts and prayers go out to you and Jack and I hope that Jack recovers quickly. Too bad Kona can't visit in hospital. Best possible medicine.

Thanks for the positive thoughts and prayers.
We appreciate them.
I did 'smuggle' Kona into the hospital once. I am working on
a formal request for Kona to be granted permission to visit Jack..
Hope it works out.

Kathy:

Hope they let you bring him in. It is a proven fact that people do better with their dogs.

Kathy - Positive thoughts and energy from Laci's family. I know Kona will be of great comfort for Jack.

Hugs from Laci and I.

Kathy my thoughts are with you and Jack and Kona. This is a very difficult time and I agree with everyone we are a blogger family and my prayers are with you. I agree cuddling With Kona would be a great help. Even a picture on his end table.

Kathy sending hugs and prayers from me , Cali, Kizmet and Tre.

December 11, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterGerda

I'm pleasantly surprised that Cali loves the pups. She tends to stay away when
Kizmet and Tre play. I thought she might not like the fast movements. She still can't have one for Christmas! Lol

December 11, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterGerda

Kathy: My positive thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time. Like Anne, I feel I know you through the blogs. Hope Kona gets to visit.

December 11, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterMaureen

Gerda: She LOVES the pups. She cries to be with them. Good news - no pups available, hahahaha Think I caught some on video and the camera today.

December 11, 2015 | Registered CommenterDarlah

I am going to SCREAM. I didn't catch her play on video or camera except a small bit. She so loves the pups as you will see when you are here but I had hoped I caught more. I will try to do better tomorrow. It's too dark now.

Gerry, Caelen and I want to let Kathy, Jack and Kona know that we are sending positive energy to Jack and praying for a quick recovery. When you get a Talemaker puppy it's like you become part of a new family. Although we have not met, we feel like we know you and wish you all the best. I hope Kona can visit his Daddy in the hospital

December 11, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterKaren and Caelen

We are praying and sending positive vibes to Jack and Kathy and Kona at this difficult time. As others have said we don't know you in person but feel so connected through this blog and being part of Talemaker.
