Playdate!
Momma and Cinderella and I all got to go on a playdate together! It was so much funs! Furst, we had to take a long, long, long car ride. Really long. Like, to Grandma's house long! (No, Momma, that's a perfectly logical measurement of time. "An hour" sounds so boring!)
When we finally gots there, it was at Momma's friend's house, where Momma was going to hang out with her friends fur a while. And you know what?? Her friend had DOGS!!! LOTS of dogs. She had three little bitty dogs.
She had a big German Shepherd named Frankie, who liked to sit in people's laps and gets his ears rubbed.
And she had an old lady dog who was just Cinderella's speed.
And there were lots of human laps to sit in and get snuggles from!
Frankie got a little fresh with Cinderella and kept trying to kiss her and follow her around and stuffs. She told him to BACK OFF 'cause she has a boyfriend already!
It was such a grreat day! Momma said we'll try to have playdates there more often. Yay!
PeeS: My buddy Raicon is a finalist in the Fuzzy Nation contest, where the winning dog can win $10,000 for their shelter or rescue!! My furiend Pink won third place last year, and this year we really hope to take home the PRIZE! Please go HERE to vote for Raicon!
"Are we there yet?"

"You're a nice guy, Frankie, but my heart belongs to Zim!"

New houseguests
After Mums & Roses on Saturday, Momma got busy making our front porch all pretty and inviting for fall. I guess she did a good job, because when I came out for my evening walk, I saw we have a couple of new houseguests hanging out.
They don't talk much, but they looked pretty comfy. They said they're going to be here for October. I guess I'd better get used to seeing them when I go in and out for my walks!
Hey, aren't you guys allowed to come inside?

Mums & Roses!
Yesterday was one of the biggest events in the LBR calendar. MUMS & ROSES!!! This is one of two annual sales we do every year that are the biggest fundraisers of our year. (Roses for Rescue is in April!) We had Tyler roses, gorgeous mums, and huuuuge pumpkins, along with other fall plants. LBR volunteers always turn out in force to help, and it's a grreat reunion with all the alums who come out to say hi.
We set up a very pretty spot for people to take their fall family photos.
This year we had a few LBR celebrities come out to meet their fans. The fabulous Patches came out to meet his adoring public. Since it was pretty chilly -- we had a cold front come in and drop temps 20 degrees overnight! -- he had to wear a sweater. Since he's SuperPatches, he had to wear some super sweaters. First Batman, then he changed into his Superman sweater.
My good buddy Dr. Shammy came by too. Isn't he handsome, rocking his shamrock neck warmer?
But hey, slow down there, buddy! Stop making time with MY momma!
Here's another good furiend of mine, Uncle Si! He's telling everybody what for.
Hey hey HEY now! What is WITH everyone coming and sitting in my momma's lap?!?
We had a couple of very special visitors for Momma, too. See this cute pair? The guy on the left is Sarge, and his sissy on the right is Mimi. Two years ago, Momma went to evaluate them in a shelter. They were both super skeered, and Mimi was really sick and close to being euthanized for it! They found LBR foster homes, and Momma went to pull them from the shelter. They were separated in their foster homes, but then they were lucky enough to find a furever home together!! Momma has missed the last few times they've visited, so she was SO happy to see them!
And then there was the BIG one. The one Momma was so happy to see, she cried. She had to give him great big kisses and a HELLO from me too, because she knows how much I love him too. Can you guess who this giant guy is??
I'll give you a hint -- his name starts with Baby and ends with AUSTIN!!!! Yes, that's right, our sweet little Baby Austin came by for a visit, and he's ALL grown up!!! Momma was SO happy and just gushed all over him. She had to get a picture with him. For funnsies, we pulled out our pictures from last year, when Momma got a picture of her holding him. Think he's changed a LITTLE over the past year?
We were SO happy to see him, and all the other LBR alums and fans who came out. And the big point? We managed to raise...
That's a WHOLE lot of kibble and vet visits for our dogs! Woohoo!!!! Thanks to everyone who came out and supported us.

It's October!
Happy first day of October, everypup! I love love LOVES October! Wanna know why? Well, furst off, the weather is finally starting to cool off. (That takes furever in Texas!) So my evening walks with Momma keep getting longer and longer, woohoo!
Second, October has my momma's birthday in it. That's a grreat day because I loves my momma very much and I loves to spoil her. I'll have to plan something extra awesome this year.
And THEN just a few days later, do you know what it is??? That's right, it's MY BIRTHDAY!! My birthday is the BEST time of the WHOLE year. I get to have a pawty and treats and go to the store to pick out a present. It's totally pawesome.
Then at the end of the month, it's Howl-oween! That's so much fun because I get to dress up in totally pawesome outfits and sit out in the yard while ALL the kids in the neighborhood come by to visit me. It just doesn't get much better than that.
But before ALL that pawesome October stuff happens, furst we have MUMS & ROSES! That's LBR's biggest fundraiser of the fall, and it's SO much fun! LBR volunteers work super hard to sell gawjuss mums, Tyler roses, and pumpkins. Lots of our alums come by for visits, and this year a few LBR celebrities will be making special appearances!
If you're in the Metroplex, please stop by to see us and fill up your garden for the year! It's THIS Saturday, October 5th, from 9am to 5pm. (Or whenever we sell out!) We'll be in the NRH2O parking lot at 9001 Boulevard 26, North Richland Hills, TX. Don't miss it!
I LOVES October!!
