Howllo Fellow Hound and Old Hound Lovers: I am sure many of you already know most of this from other boards but the Sr. Bonded pair my Mom and I picked up from the Campbell County Animal Shelter have names. Marilyn from the HOP has named them Rudolph and Hermey. (The misfit elf) Pictures coming very soon, I just have to load them.

I have to congratulate Chris Dowd for her wonderful spirit. Chris e-mailed me minutes after I posted the previous blog about helping these kids. Here is her e-mail.

Message from Chris:

Hi Cathy!

I read your blog about the 2 seniors in the
Campbell Shelter. I
emailed Susan at Bluegrass to let her know I will
help out with the
boarding/vet bills if we can find a place for
these guys. I am in
tears that they would be rescued from an abusive
situation only to
face the death penalty.

Please let me know what more I can do to help.

Chris

End of e-mail

This e-mail bought the Sr. Boys more time and they were sprung the next day. Chris, I cannot thank you enough for that e-mail. My eyes were burning so hot I could hardly read it. You touched so many souls. These boys are now on an unbelievable journey due to your kindness and hasty decision making.
We have started a request for drivers, hopefully to start on 12-8-07, but we are still in the beginning stages. Please help us if you are in the path from Northern KY to Fredricksburg Maryland, ending at the HOP.
I am waiting for the route and will post it ASAP. Please consider driving to a town we are coming through to pick up the boys for the next leg.

These boys need Marilyn really bad. She has to start the magic she works right away.

Unfortunately, I had some Holiday plans last night and today which is severely hampering my blogging performance and it is killing me.

I also want to go up to the vet and see the boys today so that will take a bit of time and it is an extra treat for all of us.

I have some video of the boys and also some more pictures that I hope to work on during the day.

Please check back often because I will be updating often.

I will tell the boys to hang in there a few more days until us humans get their ride in place.

Please contact anyone and everyone you know that could potentially help up. These boys deserve it.

More Later…Cat, Chaps and Emma
