Please join me in welcoming our newest town resident! Annie!

August 29th, 2015 - 1:01 pm KY Time

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Annabelle lovers…Annie for short, just like her little legs.  OMDog…it was a whirlwind day for sure.  Judy and her husband Rick set out for their journey to West Virgina at 6:00am yesterday.  I was so excited I woke up at 5:57am.  I was in charge of letting current bassethoundtown resident, Abby out for some potty breaks.

Here we have Abby…waiting for her new little sister…

Extra treats were in order for sure!

Even though our Mayor was very sleepy and in need of her after dinner nap she had official duties to attend to.  She was going to present Annie with her official bassethoundtown walking club badge and DRUM ROLL PLEASE…

A KEY TO THE TOWN AND PROCLAIM AUGUST 28TH ANNIE DAY!

(see the key on her toe nail?)

Annie13

Here is a closer look…She thought a little shut-eye was in order before the puppy came and boy was she right!

Annie14

Here she is…our Annie – in all of her glory!

Can you tell that Judy is a proud Mommy?  hehehe

AnnieR2

“My turn, my turn…”

AnnieR3

I put the puppy down and she makes a mad dash to the Mayor!

AnnieR6

The Mayor is not quite sure of what is happening!  She seems a bit out of sorts as Annie takes chase!

AnnieR7

Finally, the Mayor gets in a few good whiffs…Annie was going for that lace ear!

I don’t think that Daisy Lynn has ever been around a puppy this little that she remembers at least…

AnnieR17

So now it is time for the key ceremony…

AnnieR16

“Hey kiddo welcome to the town and here is your key! See you at the next walk.  There are wieners served on silver platters!  Stick with me and I will show you the way!”

AnnieR11

The Mayor in all of her infinite wisdom and generosity instructed Annie to go belly up!  She thought it would be icing on the cake of  life to receive, perhaps her first belly rub from her Mom (me)…

AnnieR12

Ahhhhhhhhh…let the journey begin…

More loving Annie later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB connecting the dots on that belly…;)

    OH MY GOSH, she is absolutely adorable! Daisy Lynn looks like a giant next to her! I am so excited to meet her at the next Bassethoundtown walk. Best of luck and hopefully she still has that puppy breath when I meet her!

    Thanks for the great blog on our new baby girl. She sure is a sweetie and this new mom is worn out. Annie is so proud to have gotten a key and to meet the mayor in all of her glory. Abby wants to thank you so much for keeping a watchful eye on her while mom and dad were gone. Abby is still wondering when she is leaving. I think she will like her more as she gets bigger. This is the beginning of a wonderful journey and I am sure Bumper is keeping a close eye on Annie from the bridge❤️

    Maureen – The walk is not scheduled yet. I will certainly let you know. International Basset Hound Day would be fun! I will look back and see when the town was founded (domain purchase date;)
