MacBeths Grooming and Boarding Kennels RAVE!

I usually feed the dogs Orijen dog food. Having two Shar Pei means having to have a premium food ... Orijen is great food that way!

We live in Greenwood Nova Scotia, on the base.

Closest pet store? New Minas! ... which is 30 - 40 minutes away.

So we do the drive to New Minas (usually JUST for dog food) every 1 - 2 weeks for a 30 lb bag of food.

Well I started getting tired of it.

I knew for sure there were no closer pet stores. I looked on the food websites to see if they showed another location closer, but nothing.

We might be boarding one or all of the dogs for Christmas when we go to Newfoundland (how I will be able to leave them I am not sure!!!!!) so I was on MacBeths website. I saw the tab that said Pet Supplies ... oh cool.

And what do they sell? Taste of the Wild dog food!

It is a good premium food as well, same as Orijen.

So now we go for a 5 minute drive to MacBeths Grooming and Boarding Kennels to get our new food and no more half hour or more drive!

Here is the website!

Foster Kittens

I have been fostering kittens for a local rescue, www.valleyhart.com

Here are some pictures of them with the dogs.

At first the dogs were really excited about them but I was really strict with them and made sure they understood these were not toys, and now they all get along great :)

Can't say my cat Roxy is very impressed about the little additions. LOL

There were four kittens, two unfortunately didn't make it. The two left are Lydia and Levi. They already have loving homes, just waiting to get big enough to spay/neuter and get needled.

My oh my, how Rinaldo and Pickles have grown!!

Pickles was neutered!

Haha, I get the last laugh! Pickles has just been neutered last Friday. He made out well through the whole thing and is healing well. Boy oh boy, I was excited for the 6 month mark! We made it - haha and now I will wait and see if his attitude will change any!

Here are some pictures ...










My dogs are sooooooooooooooooooooo lazy! Pickles couldn't even finish getting onto the couch before he fell asleep! LOL

Shar Pei Love To Explore Kings County Beaches!

It was 30 degrees out the other day! So we went to different beachs to let the doggies run off their steam :)

Deer in the Yard

Well the Crew and I are totally unpacked ... and settling in very nicely at the nice place.
Today there were three deer in the yard :)

Apparantly more come than just three. They were so cute, here is a video :) I got the video when they were leaving.

New Secretary for H.A.R.T

I am proud to say that I am the new Secretary for H.A.R.T !!

http://www.valleyhart.com/


I love H.A.R.T and all the work that Laurie does ... she is AMAZING!
I adopted Brenda from them, and have supported everything they have done.

What Laurie does is not easy, but she does it VERY well! I admire her hard work and determination. Especially with the huge amount of stray cats that there are.

After adopting Brenda, Laurie and I kept in touch. She got many photos of little Brenda who now grew up to be Big Brenda!

The work she does reminds me so much of my cat Baby who sadly passed away not too long ago. Baby's story is here ... http://ilovesharpei.blogspot.com/2009/02/rip-baby.html

I had to catch her, and after catching her, found out she was pregnant and she had kittens under my bed. Had it not been for me ... she would have had those kittens under the old building and it would have continued on.


Anyways, I am HAPPY HAPPY I can do this for Laurie! :)
