Sadness...  

Don't leave me Pamela...

Random photo shoot...

I love this city! (Best walk of shame ever - Part Deux)

Remember this one?  http://neworleanspetcarelaginappe.blogspot.com/2011/11/good-one-marisa_21.html

Look what Marisa sent yesterday?




Someone frequenting prytania obvioisly has an issue holding onto their lepord print heals. Saw this while walking the pups today :-)  Think it was near McGehee, maybe,a block closer to you...near the cameras

How cute is that?

One of our wonderful clients with a beautiful big dog is teaching her little baby how to do it.  I think that is darling...

I have the best team in the world...  

Much love...

And by that we mean...  we love you too Pamela.

I have to do this... I should not and never do but I just have to!

Introducing - Ben & Jerry! 

How cute is that?  Just two weeks apart in age... 

DARLING.

This is her...

"You can go in my house - I am staying out here" face!

My monsters...

My husband is having outpatient surgery today and I am watching Henri, Isabelle and Max on the cameras!  This could be a reality show...

Isabelle is standing on the kitchen counter.
Henri is attempting to open the refrigerator
Max has NOT stopped barking!

Thank goodness I have a great Dog Walker!

Give your baby a big hug for our sweet little Oakley

Thank you G.G. for letting me share this.  16 incredible years with such wonderful parents.  I love all of you and we will be thinking about you today...  

Her note...  

saying goodbye to a 16 year old dog is more a celebration of her life than mourning her passing. our dear oakley closed her eyes yesterday, as gracefully and peacefully as she lived her entire life. i couldn't have loved her more if she had stood on two legs and called me "mom"   thankfully, s and i won't have to miss her ; she will always be as close as our hearts

 on thanksgiving, please offfer a prayer that all the 4 legged's in the world might have an "oakley life", 16 years on this planet of  fun ,love, and health . she spent snowy weekends in wisconsin, time on the beach in massachusetts, and she enjoyed hiking in colorado. she had "siblings" who worshipped  and respected her, and human parents who never spent a night without her. there areso many deserving pooches behind bars , who would be grateful for just a day for the freedom and love oakley enjoyed every day. we all have the power to help make that dream of so many doggies, come true !

we are so ok with this new reality. oakley's life ended with grace and sweetness, with loving hands petting her, in the back yard she adored, surrounded by the familiar scent of flowers and grasses. it was serene and meaningful, the way she would have wished to pay forward her very beautiful nature.  kisses,g

Minutes before Ned arrived, still beautiful and relaxed !! Don't cry Nicole, was 
such a sweet surrender !! 

Happy Thanksgiving Y'all!

We are so thankful for all of you...

Enjoy your day and thank you for sharing your family with ours.  You have no idea how much we love each and every one of y'all.  

Poor darling just is not... well -

but we love you!  

Thanks Mommy and to answer your FBQ - we just got to the computer.

Facebook post from Jessica...

Made my day...  We sure miss her!

Jessica Jacob posted on your Wall. "Really wish I was with y'all loving kitties and walking dogs all day long tomorrow...you know how I love holidays!"

We are done for the day!

Thank you for letting us love your babies...  

Have a great evening!

Sending love from New Orleans...

PS - We really would rather stay!  

Just food for thought...  

I am thrilled that winter this morning did not last very long!

It takes a village...  stay tuned! 

Reminder Team New Orleans Pet Care - AVOID WASHINGTON

Finally, on Monday, November 28, from 6 am til 8 p.m., the film, "Dogfight" will be in production at Commander's Palace.  A flier re this 1 day production is attached  noting the parking closures for that area.   

Twas the morning before...

Not happy with Winter

One more thing...

Y'all - thanks for your patience.  As you can imagine... this is such a crazy week and the blog tends to take a back seat although I get more emails and blog hits asking about what is going on.

I "filter" comments on the blog because 99% of them are spam hits/feedback.

Thank you so much for taking the time to send emails and feedback.  I really appreciate it and we love the blog!

Sweet dreams!

We sure appreciate you and hope you are all off having a wonderful time.

Our haunted city...

Ready?

Pamela leaves the cat food bag like this the PM before she leaves...  

Pamela finds the clip in the basket next to the food (obviously nibbled on) in the am... 

We are the only one - other than the obvious boogie man - or some very smart cats that have access to the house.

You decide.  

One of our amazing clients SAVED A life...

Now - she is taken a dip in the Mighty Mississippi and is a New Orleans girl now!

I have read this but a wonderful client sent it to me today and I wanted to share.

Horrible photo but...

Although we have always recycled paper we decided to go a little smaller for those that toss the notes or who do not have a journal.  Quick story...  when I first started New Orleans Pet Care and found my first Team Member, Remy was a baby.  I started the company out of need.  I tell people all of the time that I could not find what I was looking for so someone I was very close to (and worked for) suggested I created it.  I started with three clients...  I was insistent that we keep a journal on daily activities.  I have mentioned this before but I have EVERY note that was ever left for me and I read them often.  I had an amazing client that put them in a beautiful book for me and I often wake to read what Remy did that day.  I hope you enjoy what we leave (I know - Bradley has the worst penmanship in the world) and I hope one day you can look back and enjoy the day they had with New Orleans Pet Care.  

Sending a little holiday love from NOLA!

My "assistant" is here...

In her PJs at 12:20 watching cartoons with Isabelle.  GREAT!

Please get it for me!

Mornin!!

Best walk of shame ever?

Good one Marisa!

Sending lots of love...

Welcome Home International Lover!

One of my favorite things to see in the AM!

Monday - Holiday week...

This is what I look  like already today!

I saved these for today...

Yesterday mid morning... we enjoyed a random hat parade.  I LOVE when that happens.  It was great fun and a welcome distraction for the crazy load out work I was doing.
