Hurricane Season 2008 ~ It is so over!

Last night at dinner, my husband Mike and I decided we would put up some art that has been framed for two years. Baggage much? Collective sigh of relief! May 2009 be a non contraflow year.

So it rained...

Perfect for two labs!

Rainy day nap

Cuddles

Hi Dr. Mommy, DVM

It is raining today but I am doing really well.

This IS my happy face!

Baby S!

We just hate when holiday travel starts to come to an end... We have had such a great long weekend and are starting to kiss and cuddle "bye for now"... This is sweet baby S. A cat bowl does not work for the little princess.

Pet Friendly this weekend...

Le Jour De Remerciement

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us to all of you!

La Veille

Jessica, Sawyer, Marci, Bradley, Sarah and I have tucked and cuddled everyone in. We gave "la veille" (Cajun French* for "eve"... more or less!!) tuck in kiss kiss and are ready to start tomorrow full of "remercier "(thanksgiving).

* (Cajun French) ... Douget - My big brother - Brock, my little brother - Derek and I are all adopted. (My mom and dad were the Brad Pitt and Angela of the 1960's but NUFF SAID... we are all adopted... thus the rainbow! Google will tell you more!) My dad and mom made sure we understood and apprecaited their/our first lanquage... Cajun French. I am thankful for it.

Thankful...

for long runs with Bradley and my little sisters... Fiona & Apple*

(*not in photo... they ran!)

We have a new baby!

How cute is he? He is a Goldendoodle... yes, a black Goldendoodle. Nothing better than a new baby at New Orleans Pet Care.

Why is everyone working today?

This is our serious face! Seriously... we need another cookie.

Le Jour De Remerciement - eve!

Such a crazy morning and day... but lots of fun! Traffic is crazy, the day is warming and the pups and kitty cats are all awake!

What y'all doin?

Is there food involved?

Tres - Top 10 FAVS!

10. Pretend he's a cow in the backyard...he likes to graze!

09. Follow his foster mom all over the house

08. Watch birds in the trees

07. Sleep in Buzi's bed...even when Buzi is already in it AND when there is a brand new bed just for him right next to Buzi's

06. Sniff kitty butts

05. Take his foster mom for walks to the park

04. Run really fast in the park...so fast in fact, that his brakes don't work and the only way to slow down is to barrel roll

03. Snuggle in laps while watching the Saints kick Packers' butts

02. EAT!!!And T's favorite passtime...

01. Cuddling with the kitten!!!!! Who would have ever thought he would get to that point!?!?! I came in from doing laundry today and the kitten was curled up under T's head. He still considers chewing on him occassionally but T has gotten so much better.

Tres is still looking for a forever home! You will fall in love with him...

My daddy won last night!

Doody - yes, Doody & Star

And as a matter of fact, after the walk last night it was wet Doody (the little one) and Star. Star is so serious... I love her so.

T&T

T&T waiting for breakfast! Sending love from uptown to mommy on holiday...

Thanksgiving Week...

I have so much fun hearing where clients are heading... Dubai, Maldives, Hawaii, New York, Florida, California... and on and on... We are in full holiday mode here and it is so much fun! Bananas (as per my earlier post) but so much fun! Happy travels... You are in good hands if I do say so myself!

It is bananas today!

Burrr

The harsh winter (and by that I mean it is windy and 44 degrees) does not bother Loca one bit! She danced for the squirrels this morning...

Brad had a rough morning!

A cat kicked his #&@$!

You know... You do whatya gotta do!

The mission was clear... hunt, (not pose for some photo) and CATCH a squirrel. They did not get one last night but they will... you bet they will keep trying!

Event last night - Another Tres video!

We had such a great time at the event last night. Tres was sporting his adoption vest and the girls (Buzi & Gigi) were his dates. Max sat out... Buzi was in the trick competition and was very impressive. We left with a present each and a new bed and bowl for Tres. The people at the SPCA work so hard at these events... it was so nice to see everyone out with their babies supporting such a great cause.

Attn: Jessica & Sawyer

Lovey is going on hoiday with her mommy and dad!

How cute is she!?!

We are looking forward to January!!

Pet friendly this weekend...

I was SAVED!

My sister (the most WONDERFUL Vet in Baton Rouge) found me walking on the side of the road. I was heart worm positive and some would say... "a hot mess". I was saved by her and(our) mom and dad and could not be a more well mannered little girl. Marci gets to see me every Monday - Friday mid day for our special walkin' time! I am Princess Ruby... just ask me. (Pardon my crazy eyes.. I was getting a belly rub!)

Dog friendly this weekend...

This is a fantastic bookfair! Lots of things outside on Frenchmen Street... Remy and I went last year and we had a great time.

Tres - Update

Baby Tres is doing very well with Sawyer, Buzi and the kitty cats. He has been over every afternoon to play. He has been doing really well. He loves to watch the corner of 8th & Prytania and greets everyone with a big tail wag... no barking! He is such a great little man. Can you give him a forever home?

Assisi!

Taja really did not want to mug for the camera! All is well on the home front! It rained yesterday and it really put a damper on our mid day play time. Have a great time in Assisi!

My mom broke her arm...

and I got a dog walker!

woohoo

Look at my smile...

Baby Nemo

Gigi has a new baby brother. I saw this little boy on Tulane's campus just sitting there so I decided he needed to come home with me!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUZI!! (4yrs old today!)

Tres - Update!

The most amazing thing happened! Sawyer returned from holiday in Greece and between J.F.K. and Atlanta airport(s) she filled out the foster application with Labs4Rescue. She picked up Tres yesterday... I invited myself! He slept all the way back to her house... I am very anxious to hear how everyone slept. I understand he played nice with the kitty cats last night.

Tres is still looking for a forever home... He has his "adopt me" vest and will sporting it about town with Buzi and Sawyer.

Tuscany, Florence, Rome today!

Have a great time today... We would rather our yard! Boomer is being SUPER nice to Jessica... It only took a few cookies to change his mind. All is well! This is us smelling something.

This is her spot. She likes when you fix her meals and bring them in so she can eat in bed. After she eats her good food she stretches and gets up.

Story & Luke's mom reminded me about this web site... I love it!

Tres - Update

After much consternation and consideration, Jennifer identified a potential forever home for Tres. Jennifer and I were so excited but the family came for a visit but decided a Lab was a little to big for their family. So, we are back at square one!



Tres is a beautiful baby (1.5 ish years) boy. He is being taken care of by a wonderful angel from Labs4Rescuse, Jennifer Wright. Jennifer tells me that his owner died and his owner's relatives literally threw him out on the street. Jennifer says... "He is crate trained and house trained. He is a gentle fellow who will follow you everywhere. He gets along with other animals. He is calm and spends most of his time just laying beside you. He loves everybody. He would be a great therapy dog and an inspiration to kids/adults in rehab. He would also be an ideal family dog because he is fabulous with kids. He will need a home without a lot of steps but otherwise has full mobility. He is incredibly special in so may ways." Jennifer has been working to raise money for a "wheelchair" for Tres. She was able to raise a bit Sunday at Pet Fest but not enough. So, in Remy's honor... we are going to take care of the remaining cost. She met with Dag's House this morning and has more research and appointments forth coming. I would love to foster Tres but, I know that he would not be happy in my three story house! I got to cuddles and kiss him Sunday and I am so in love with him! Jennifer is looking for a foster family and/or a forever home. Can you help this beautiful baby boy?

B & CJ(T is not ready for the web)

According to Jessica you should be on your way to Milan & Tuscany. We are going to keep posted on your travels! We let Jessica in the house with no problem!

Have a great time and I will touch base with you around between Rome and Assisi!

COME ON 11.30.08

UGHH!!

RIP...

Oops she did it again! If LSU loses today while you are at the game... she may do it again, again! Silly girl!

Night Shift!

This week was fun for us mom... I bet we like the night shift more than you do! Have a great weekend. We will see you back on days next week!

Kiss Kiss Mommy

So glad you fired the other pet sitter... I know he is your son but, Jessica loves me too!

Meat

Planning to break camp! Checking out the front door! About to dine and ditch! etc... You really have to be on your A game in this house.

She passed!

Mornings in City Park...

These two can't wait to get out of the door to either swim in the back yard or chase squirrels in their front yard... City Park. What a life!

Tres

Remember the special baby I mentioned in my Pet Fest post? Well... this is Tres. Tres is a beautiful baby (1.5 ish years) boy. He is being taken care of by a wonderful angel from Labs4Rescuse, Jennifer Wright. Jennifer tells me that his owner died and his owner's relatives literally threw him out on the street.

Baby M

How sweet is this baby? He is ll years young and LOVES, LOVES his walkin' time. Sad story... he was attacked by two dogs at dog daycare and almost lost his life. He had a collapsed lung and had to have a rib removed but you would never know it... He is such a happy and friendly little boy. We love when mom has movies to work on!

Max V - "International Lover"

After a year long visit to Atlanta... Max is back home with us and we are thrilled. He went nuts when he saw Jessica today. I think he is happy to be back where he belongs! VIVA New Orleans.

This is my...

" Don't leave yet" face...

Pet Fest

Jessica and I had a great time at Pet Fest! It was so much fun seeing everyone. What a great event... I met a wonderful black Lab that needs our help. More on that later... You are going to love this little man!

We had a ball! As you can imagine, it was a bit hectic with all of the pups running around La Maison Remy but it was lots of fun. To all of you that came by... thank you so much. To those that missed it... we hope you will be able to join us the next time. Funny - we run around taking photographs all day long and we did not take any last night. UGH ME!

Thanks again!
