I got kind of bored sitting out in the yard waiting and decided a nap under my tree would be a good way to pass the time! I mean, it was 65F/18C during the afternoon - isn't THAT a snow temp?
I was STILL looking Saturday night - no dice (but we did get SOME sunset pikhs Mom will share on Friday)!
I'm not thinking it is headed this way yet
I know we'll get some EVENTUALLY! I'm patient - I khan wait!

Ah yes, another enjoyable trip along I81 (save for it being rutt season when it is best to not look along the sides of the road) with four furry special pups for The Last Resort Rescue You can see more info about them on the page I've linked to - Please take a look at their stories so once again you will understand what LUCKY dogs these four are!
******
Of course, there are LOTS more pictures AND four videos at the Photobucket Album link for them. They got along sooooo well! I did have to chuckle as we got back on I81 after I picked them up from their overnight host. I looked back to see Chaz and Jocelyn necking like two teenagers in the back of The Xterra.
DSS was sooo scared to start - just shivered and kept giving me THOSE eyes in the front seat but I kept petting her to reassure her she was safely out of Gaston now. Pumpkin surely held her own with the 'big' doggies. Jocelyn ALMOST tried to help ride shotgun with DSS - several times she thought about it but ended up snoozing in the back instead!
It was another rewarding way to spend a morning that began at 5am. As soon as I saw their happy tails and special smiles it was so worth it!
Tom (their overnight host) was also the lucky host for Akayla, Maya, Polar, and Zona at the end of August - they were his first exposure to huskies (LOL). Here is what he named this transport
I hereby name this run the "Mixture of Mutts Marching to Milford"
Thanks again for your support AND your kind words about Khyra's Khorner! It means more than we can find words to express it!
After all, it is NOT about 'us' - it is all about the special creatures that let us into their lives and ask very little of 'us' - just that we help take care of them since they can not fend safely for themselve!
Khyra will be back tomorrow to tell you about 'things' - I'm not completely sure what she's got in mind but you know Khyra! I'm sure she won't let us down!

That is what I call precious cargo.
We love the mug!!
The cat one would say that we are royalty and deserve lots of treats. And we have fur coats. MOL.
Ditto to what Ben said! You are an amazing person!
Khyra, I'm afraid 65F is still a bit too warm for snow. I think you need it to go down another 30 degrees, at least.
It's hard to imagine anyone using a gas chamber in this day. What a horrible way to kill the animals! We're glad some are rescued.
Woo already know Momma's thoughts on your passengers so we just wanted to let you know that we're parked by the patio door waiting for the snow to start again.

For all they have been through, they look so calm and beautiful -- it must be your influence. :) Thank you.
Hey, congrats to you and your mom on your award from the Bumpass Hounds & Cats. We think you deserve it.
what a sunny spot you got there...
That looks like a great load of fur passengers. God work, Khyra's mum!!
You look good in the sunshine!
All those furries look so much at home in the Xterra!
What a great mug from Mango. What beautiful passengers for this week. You must have a sniff fest after every transport.
Love,
Teddy Bear
Hi Khyra! We can always count on you for making our days brighter by sharing your stories and pics with us! Luvly cup! Thanks for sharing and have a happy Monday!!
Cheers,
Maxx
Those are furry lucky pups. Mom got all leaky eyed when she read their stories.

Love the mug - that is a cool saying....
MFT, I am looking forward to hear what you have to say. I hope we get that nice sunshine again today. No snow, please.
Slobbers,
Mango
Another wonderful transport, another good deed done!
Without further ado - mega congrats to you and the Mom for your superb award from the Bumpass Hounds. So very well-deserved!!!!!
Khyra, we have the temps here for snow but the snow gods have once again decided to go north of us. It's not even mid-October and we have temps near freezing every night.
Mom's passengers were all so sweet - DSS is a beautiful reminder of our sweet Muffin from a few years back. Thanks again to your Mom for what she does.

We are looking everywhere for our snow, too, but can't seem to find it anywhere.
They are all gorgeous dogs but we especially like Jocelyn. We are so glad that she was given a shot at life. ~S,S,C & F
Khyra, I tried getting my human to mail you some snow, but she assured me it would not make it to you. I'm sorry. I tried really really hard.
Khyra, If I had any snow I would be more than glad to give it ALL to you. Hang in there big girl, I am afraid it is coming...sooner than we think. SHIVER SHIVER SHIVER
Khyra,
Mom is doing a great job transporting. This crew looks like a lot of fun even if they aren't huskies.
Sorry you didn't get snow this weekend. Us either. Of course it is a monumental event when we get snow.
Miss your fluffy tail!

Hey Khyra and Mom,
You are invited to download your BRAVO-ZULU AWARD IN MEMORY OF SPENCER from our today's post. It is a little ironic that your post today about yet another early morning successful transport comes on the same day that we issue only our third presentation of the coveted (we hope) BZ Award.
http://bumpasshounds.blogspot.com/2009/10/monday-mystery-guest.html
Your millions of followers are welcome to stop over and read about why you were chosen (as if they don't already know). Youse guys are an inspiration for the rest of us to try to do our part to help homeless animals find a safe, loving, furever home. We pups and kitties have to encourage our people to find a shelter or rescue organization to work with. Find one in their area and volunteer to help out in whatever way they are able. These tough economic times are really stressing the resources of the shelters and rescues; when all else fails - send money. Anyway, we'll get off of our soapbox now and congratulate you both on your selection and we hope you receive the recognition that you deserve for what you do.

Hi Khyra,
I hope you get snow soon cause I know how much you are looking forward to it. Maybe we could work out a deal where I send you all the snow we are suppose to get in the coming months. Deal?

"After all, it is NOT about 'us' - it is all about the special creatures that let us into their lives and ask very little of 'us' - just that we help take care of them since they can not fend safely for themselves!"
I couldn't agree more strongly.
Wooos! nice mug! Great job transporting all of the poor pups, I am sure your Mom helped them feel better, It can be hard to be scared.....
by the way, can someone send some of that snow stuff down south, it is still over 93 degrees here.....

I love the way you write about all the different personalities your passengers have. Necking in the back? too funny.
We so love what you are doing.
It must be so rewarding to know you're helping those nice doggies get to forever homes. You both deserve an extra biscuit today:)
Congratulations of your award from the BH&K!
Aww.. those sweet pups, how awful though to think what could have happened to them if people like your mum hadn't helped them.
That mug is very cool!
Keep looking for the Snow, Khyra! :-)
Holly & Zac. :-)
Cute mug - both on and in the computer!
The transports were all sweeties! It's so wonderful they were rescued and we hope they have the happy life they deserve!
Mom said she can totally see why your mom does transports! Mom also said if your mom or anyone needs help whenever down in Alabama, to let her know!
Oh, and mom loves that coffee cup, I may have to get her one for Xmas!
I'm waiting for snow, too! Mom is not. BOL
Those are some pretty cute passengers in your xterra. Please thank your mom for sharing their pics with us.
Happy Monday!
Your pal,
Titus
Khyra-Face, those are definitely some happy hounds in your Xterra! And, darlin', it's got to be LOTS colder before the white stuff falls on you-but it will! I know it!
They are all so sweet. We are so happy that they all are getting to their forever homes safe and sound..
We are sorry about the snow Khyra. There are probably lots more chances of that in the near future...
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie
Well, it appears that I am getting your snow today. I will attempt to throw some pawfulls to you!:)
Woo! Khyra, I love the pictures of you. Mom, the photos of the dear little rescues are SO cute! We are grateful to you for providing our furiends new opportunities!
We hear a lot of snoring from that car ride!
Benny & Lily
Hi, Khyra...
I finally got my Mom to sit down & help me catch up...
She says she doesn't know how you & your Mom post everday with all that you have to do...
I mean you have to make sure your yard is secure & that your Paw Placement is perfect & that your biscuits are in just the right place...
And, your Mom has to take care of you & keep the flashie beast ready & drive in all the transports...
Your days must be longer than ours...
Abby xxxooo
We hope you get some snow soon!
Sorry, 18C is not a snow temp. Maybe next time?
Your mum is very good to do all these transports.
Khyra-----no snow????? Don't worry it will be there soon enough!!
Khyra's Mom--look at your go with your transports! What lucky woofies!!
Yes, our Meowm knows what we share with the world. She figures she doesn't have much to hide....so we don't worry too much about what we paw.
Hi, Khyra!
I hope your get snow soon!
Chaz looks like Ivy!
Kisses and hugs
Lorenza
Khyra!
You're still waiting for snow too, I see... I've been so jealous this week, seeing that all our bloggin' doggin' friends are getting snow! It was about 18 degrees here too... Don't you think that's good snow weather? The humans don't quite think so. Oh well. I'm sure we'll get it soon!
I hope you had a grrrrEAT weekend my friend!
Sparky
that mug is SO right!
as usual, loving your Monday MOMdays... keep the good news rolling!
drooly kisses,
Aki
Just before mom left my breeder's house wayyyyyyy back when I was 8 weeks old, he told my mom that puppies are not little people in fur coats! He couldn't have been more wrong! My breeder wins all kinds of obedience awards so that must be why he made that stoopid statement!
Love ya lots,
Maggie
Thank you for sharing all the lovely pictures on stories on your blog! You´re on in a million, Khyra!
Look at those adorable faces.
We can feel the love in thier hearts.
Thank you for helping these fur babies
love
tweedles
Our grand parents have snow so we were waiting for ours too - but it never did come
Woodrow - Sweetie - MJ
Khyra I think at 65 degrees there you may have to wait a while for snow still. We had thought we would get a little but it never showed up (and I admit I was glad).
And be sure to tell her mom what a wonderful thing it is she does transporting these poor puppies. She is bringing them to a wonderful life - what a great thing to do to help out!
Hi, Khyra -
We really like the picture of you being upside down on the computer screen. We like reading stories that have happy endings because every pup and dog deserve a good home.
Love -
Hershey and Kaci
Those sure are some cute pups!
Kat
PS. I'm still waiting for my snow too.
ooooo those passengers really are special pups. they're sooo cute. how do you do it? how do you let these little cuties go? i'd be pup napping and pup-hording everyone of them. i'd be a failed foster...fur sure!
