Monday With Multiple M's

From Saturday
Also Saturday
Sunday
Mom snagged some shots of Harrisburg on her way to/from Allentown - she's inkhluded some text here to show the lokhation of their highrise khondo!
******
This was the 'is it time fur our walk' Saturday look
I was chekhking to see if Merdie had finished all of her pig ear - I had a Jumbone - there was one of each left - Mom furst ofFURed Merdie the Jumbone and me the ear BUT we each eyed the other's SOOOO Mom switched and we were khwite satisfied!
Merdie sniffing Mom when she returned Sunday afternoon
I'm khoming to chekhk her too!
(Akhtually, The Doggy Nanny told Mom the two of us stayed right at the door the entire time Mom was gone)
Now to let Mom tell woo about her Sunday passengers...

Thank Khyra!First, I'll share Carla Jean who was on the early legs of the Saturday portion of this transport - this is picture sent by her driver - she was along from Conway SC to Benson NC - she met another transport there and headed to her furever home in 'Merryland' - she's a liver and white 1 year old

Now to my transport passengersTHE Charm - sorry 'bout the sun - driving East around 0815Tina - Marge - Dakota

That was pretty much how the entire trip was - two sleeping and one watchingTina - she came from Clayton NC on her way to NH - she's around 4 year oldRaspberry to you too Tina!Marge - she came from Savannah GA - she's a BrittanyMix around 2 years old - heading to RI MargeDakota - the very honoured passenger - he came from Conway SC - he's 12 years old and heading to NHTina and MargeMarge and TinaMarge MargeDakotaHe was a great guest Marge was comfy quite quicklySee?Marge and TinaI wondered if our friends The Rocky Creek Scotties recognised this exit?

It was quite a nice transport AGAIN - I've yet to meet a Brittany and/or BrittanyMix that was anything but sweet and friendly! I know one of the drivers for the Saturday leg from Greensboro to Mt Airy NC wrote the transport list and said:

Thanks for asking me to do this, Kathy! What a great experience! My husband would have adopted Tina in a heartbeat if I we didn't already have 6 pets. She kept smiling at him and nudging him with her nose. I'm sure Dakota will be happy when the day is over and he can settle down. This was our first experience with Brittany Spaniels. What sweet dogs!

Here is the Photobucket Link for their SLIDESHOW of pictures; here is the link for the album with SEVEN videos - once again, it was just easier and more entertaining/rewarding to video them given their personalities and energy levels!

The leg was done in honour and memory of The Memorial Day holiday here in the US AND for MaxDog!

I did want to share a very awesome blogpost I caught up with whilst uploading the Photobucket - please visit DogsMom learning to blog MEMORIAL DAY TRIBUTE

Have a safe holiday/day!

Hugz&Khysses From Khyra's (and Khousin Merdie) Khorner!

PeeEssWoo: Here is part of an email we got early Sunday evening from Dakota's Foster:

Dakota is home and resting quietly. He's done a thorough inspection and marking of the back yard, met all our dogs, and we are giving him a little time out in his crate to take everything in. He seems very sweet and loving, curled up on the back seat and snoozed all the way home. Thank you ALL for your efforts to get him here - it's because of great folks like you that we are able to help these dogs. I've said it before, but you meet the nicest people doing rescue!

Yoor mom and the team are wonderful helping those woofies so much ~ fank yoo. Mom said she wanted to smoochie Tina (so cute!)

JD and Max said...

Hi Khyra - we had half a jumbone each yesterday too - super-yum! Your mom sure is wonderful to help these doggies, they all looked so lovely, we hope they enjoy their new furever homes. Schnauzer snuggles - JD and Max.

Another awesome transport with some very good-looking woofies!

Have a great Memorial Day!

Woofs,

Kate said...

Its good to see the older doggies getting some help!

I have to say... Merdie is becoming good floof competition!

D.K. Wall said...

That is quite the walk reminder look!

And you know the hu-dad loves the pictures of each week's transports. Dakota particularly got to him this week.

P.S. - Paws crossed for Indy out in Spokane.

Heather and Kelly said...

Ellie knows all about the art of switching bones/chew toys...she'll come up to the other dog and wag her tail and look friendly, then slowly and sweetly reach down and take the other dog's bone while they are wooed by her charms. I never let her do this with dogs that liked to resource guard....but she's good at it with other dogs!

♥♥ The OP Pack ♥♥ said...

We are really feeling like very deprived pups. We don't get pig chews and we never heard of a jumbone. Our Momster needs to get with the times.

Dakota really touched our hearts, not just the name, but he was such a nice old man. Thanks for another wonderful deed.

We will go visit DogsMom to see what it there.

Woos - Phantom, Thunder and Ciara

Chris and Ricky said...

Khyra somehow you look so pitiful waiting for your walk!

The brittanys are so cute and look comfy in the car!

The PFs grow up so fast - look at your's all enjoying hanging out on the ledge!

3 doxies said...

You know, everytime you post a transport me and my mum get chill bumps. My mum was like 5 mim from Mt. Airy this weekend...when she abandoned me.

Dexter said...

I am so glad mom sorted out that whole nommy bone situation. You would think she would know which one is for Khyra by now.

Slobbers,

Martha said...

We are always saying it but your mom gets the best looking doggies to transport.
They were very cute passengers and looked quite relaxed!
Your mom must give off good vibes.
Oh Khyra, well done for sorting out the bone situation. Having friends to stay is fun!
Have a great Memorial day holiday.
love

WOW, this really is a small world! My mom sometimes does Brittany transports for Kathy B. a little further south - Staunton or Strasburg. Just a few legs before your leg! What a cute group you had!

♥I am Holly♥ said...

What a great post! Thanks for all that you do for the dog rescue!! I love the Brittany Spaniels. I had a puppy once but ended up giving it to a friend's father who lived out in the country and had lost his other dog. He wanted it so bad and I knew he would be going to a great home and he did according to my friend. Happy Memorial Day! Lots of love, Debbie and Holly

KB said...

You're my hero! Thanks for taking care of those sweeties.

The Oceanside Animals said...

I feel sad for all the dogs that need a home but especially for a 12-year-old. I can't imagine Tucker losing the only home he's ever known and ending up in a shelter somewhere. I'm glad Dakota has found a new family.

DESERT PUPS said...

Woof Khyra and Merdie,

Multiple M's, like M&M's? You pups sure look like you're having fun. Marge, Tina and Dakota seems like happy dogs. As always, the birds are pawsome.

Desert Pups,
Toby, Norman, Keiko and The Ghost of Scuba

Mr. Hendrix said...

the nicest people do do rescues! BTW I said do do but not doo doo. tee hee hee

my mommy took Joel to meet the woofies that live with the Animal Comminicator that we use. Topper is a 105lb Golden Retriever! Mommy says he is a perfect looking golden, but just huge. Not fat, huge. Like Superman's dog or something. Joel thought Topper and Bijly the Leonburger were so fun. They thought he was fun too

Sagira said...

What cute passengers. I hope they all find some great homes.

Unknown said...

Angel Ginger Jasper said...

They are so right that the transport people rock and your mum does for sure.. Lovely pictures as always. What cuties and all looked so content in the car. I liked that you waited for your mum to come home safely at the door. I like to watch for my mum at the window. Lovely post.. Hugs GJ xx

Cory said...

We just love seeing these precious woofies who look so happy and content in their travels to something better...just makes us purrr and makes Grete woofie wag her tail and wiggle.

Pee Ess...Grete woofie got lots of ball play and walkies..and is due for another walkie soon.

JacksDad said...

How do you keep from bringing every one of your transports home with you?

Anonymous said...

From the neck down, Marge looks very familiar. She'd fit right in here. (She is all over cute.)
I will have to stop back and take time to watch the videos.
We don't do Pig Ears, or tails, and you don't really want to talk about Bully sticks. Jumbones are a special treat when they're on sale or we have coupons. Luckily they are on sale often, and this mom stocks up.
We are still practicing for the video contest.
Being a former transporter, I love your stories.

Khady Lynn said...

Mom just did a transport for two lucky Brit's last weekend. They are very sweet pups. It's always heartwarming to know you are helping save lives!

Two French Bulldogs said...

What great pictures. Every buddy looks like they get along really well. That Marge sure is a curry

We like the pictures of the pups! We think your mom is the best to help out with them all!

The other day mom came to stop at a right behind a X-terra and first thing thought of your X-terra! That is the first time mom ever noticed one of those machines before!!

Oh, I likes the "is it time for a walk" look! You both have it down to a tee! Or is it tea? Either way, you are Most Excellent at it!

If I hadn't come along and stole momma's heart and everything, mom and dad mighta ended up with a Brittany. They said they are super duper dogs but not as super duper as me! (According to them, of course.)

Wiggles & Wags,
Mayzie

Goldie, Shade and Banshee said...

Those pups looklike sweet little travel mates!!

Mango the Maltese kiddo said...

It's very hard not to adopt another cute dog when you already have a full pack and especialy when the pup keeps smiling and nudging with you, sigh!
Hugs!

BeadedTail said...

It was nice of you and Merdie to wait for and greet your mom after she got home from her impawtant transport! The three passengers today were all so cute and we are very thankful for your mom for helping them get across Pawsylvania!

Lorenza said...

Happy Memorial Day, Khyra, Merdie and Mom!

Oh Khyra...that Dakota...smokin' hot and handsome at 12 years old...and kudos to the family taking him for giving this senior boy another chance at a forever home...does, um he DATE?

Bless you all for your help and endless driving for these rescues...there will be no line for you in heaven...nope...

AND there won't be any line for my brothers in heaven either cuz I doubt that's their destination...did you see those nasty posts they've done? Rude ignorant boors...

Lacie begins to pout...not an unusual activty for this little diva.

And honestly, Khyra...there is no need to clear BOTH LANES of your end of the turnpike just so I can pass through...actually, I'm stoppin' at your house...do you have any donuts? I'm starved.

Kisses,
