Now more than ever, you are needed to donate your old blankets, towels, and sheets to your local animal shelter. With financial cut-backs, repairs on shelters are often put off, so if it's drafty, the animals suffer. I know my shelter uses rags to stuff under doors. No kidding! Empty out those closets... this is your chance to get rid of stuff and do something useful!

Sad News

In scanning my usual dog related sites, I came across this very sad news from Pet Connection.

http://www.petconnection.com/blog/2010/01/08/artist-stephen-huneck-takes-his-own-life/

Though I didn't know his name, I instantly knew the artist's work from the picture below. My dog's vet has this great painting of Stephen Huneck hanging in the lobby and I always admire it when we are there.

Here it is:



I will keep his wife and family and all his Vermont friends and all those who admired his work in my prayers. It's a very great loss.  I'm so glad we have his work to admire.

Google him, and bask in the pictures of events on Dog Mountain. I wish I could have been there.
