He’s my grandpa, get your own grandpa!

March 5th, 2009 - 10:10 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Grandpa Lovers: Well, I guess you can say that Chaps is having a problem sharing grandpa with Oscar, or could it be the treats he brings with him? I will have to ponder that question.

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Gabe in TX lovers: Well today is a big day for our Gabe in TX. Gabe is getting his neuter surgery and being completely vetted. Please, please drool and keep your paws crossed that Gabe is not heartworm positive. I just have a feeling he is fine.

bassethoundtown’s newest responsible citizen….Gabe

OMG! You have to click on the picture and look at Gabe’s eyes. It looks like someone put the most perfect eyeliner on him! He also looks very soft.

This guy is going to have a great life with a wonderful forever family (as soon as we find them)! Thanks to Gabe’s foster family, Charlene, Glen, Audra, Mike and Jourdan for taking in this dear soul and rescuing him from a life of breeding in the mills.

More Happy Beginnings coming soon……..Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Today is Homer’s day in bassethoundtown!

March 3rd, 2009 - 7:07 am KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Homer Lovers!

I am quite sure most of my dear readers remember Homer! Who could forget our boy dumped at a KY shelter on Christmas Eve? Anyway, as can be expected, we do not know Homer’s birthday. So, his Mommy Joni selected today. Joni selected today because this was the birthday of Homer the 1st.

THIS IS HOMER THE 1st!

homer1st

So, in honor of Homer the 1st and Homer the 2nd the Mayor had proclaimed March the third, Homer Brooks day in Basset Hound Town. This day and every March the third from hear to eternity will be Homer Brooks day in Basset Hound Town.

The Mayor would also like to present Homer the second with the key to
Basset Hound Town.

As you can see, Emma is helping. She is the Mayor’s assistant/first lasy.
Pay no attention to the kibble next to the key please.

Homer the 2nd is asking donations be made to his favorite charity in lieu of lavish presents.

Chaps Rudert proclaims March the 3rd,
Homer Brooks day in Basset Hound Town!

It has been so much fun meeting Homer and becoming friends with Joni.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOMER! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

homerfg

You found a great forever home! Sure beats that scrooge that dumped you at the pound on Christmas Eve by a million KY county miles!!!!!!! ((((JONI)))))

More lavish Homer the 2nd postings later……Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Young Emma posing for her Mommy!

March 2nd, 2009 - 7:07 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Hound and Young Emma Lovers!

Wow, feast your eyes upon this early shot of our Emma.

img_0087

I have thousands of pictures of Emma on film. I am working on sorting all of them. I have about the same amount of our Chaps. It is crazy to think that just 4 years ago I used film and not digital. I do pat myself on the back for being a prolific photographer. I cannot wait to share more film with you. This is Emma in my bedroom chair. Look at her velvet ears! So shiny!

Bedroom – AKA Lily book storage area! LOL

More film shots later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

New Gabe photos just in!

March 2nd, 2009 - 5:05 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Gabe lovers: Our Gabe is still in transition and getting ready for his vetting and neuter surgery on Wednesday. We are working with a wonderful lady from Western TX named Sheri who is helping us find Gabe a forever home. Who would not want this guy? You have to see these new pictures.

Just a reminder, Audra is Colby Chaps’s (Chaps’s son) Mom and Audra’s Mom and Dad are fostering Gabe whom Audra found on the street. Tada!

On with the show!

This meeting is called to order! Who is in charge of treats around here?

gabe-066

Oh, I understand. Should I do a trick?

gabe-059

Or maybe cotton up to the old guy? I think Bailey is the King around here!

gabe-055

He may be the King but I already have this nice lady wrapped around my paw. This is my foster Mom, Charlene.

gabe-067

Not to mention this pretty girl named Jourdan. She is Audra’s daughter. Ah, this is the life! Smile for the cameras baby girl!

gabe-052

One more is never enough!

gabe-060

All this lime light is making me drowsy!

gabe-007

Clancy wants to know if it is safe to come out now! LOL

gabe-001

Look how long I am! This is how I like to roll! Thanks for the lift Jourdan. That is my foster Daddy in the background, Glenn! He is really nice.

gabe-069

I cannot image being a dumped stray basset hound and this family finding me. Sometimes a hound wins the life lottery. He could still be stuck in that dank holding tank waiting for a lift to the nearest pound. Not our GABE! He is safely tucked into his foster home, waiting for his forever home.

We need to get him through Wednesday and recovery. I will keep everyone updated for sure!

More uplifting Gabe news later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Basset Hound Blogs………We LOVE YOU!

March 1st, 2009 - 10:10 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Blogs Lovers!

I see so many of you out there. I try to comment but you have so many restrictions on your blog comments. I wind up not being able to tell you how I love your postings. So, if you have a basset hound blog I have probably seen it and tried to comment.

However the restrictions are too tight to comment! The last blog I just tried to comment on wanted me to sign up for an account on Blogger which I already have. I logged into blogger and then went back to the blog and I had to key in my blogger id which I did. Then I left my comment and then I had to key in the security numbers and then after I did that I it said my blogger password was not valid so then I said forget it! LOL

img_5978

Sorry!

More wishing we could comment on your lovely hounds later…….Cat, Chaps and Emma
