FreEYEday SkEYEday Free Fur All SPECIAL EDITION

Dear Khyra and Khyra's Mom,

I have a special request I hope you might pass on to your readers. My pals Colin and Molly are a couple of humans who truly went above and beyond to help a sweet, severely neglected dog named Elsie. She ran away on the day they adopted her. It took a month, night-vision wildlife cameras, several pursuits with a dog-tracking dog, and finally a professional trapper to get her back. Then a careless dog-walker let her get away again -- this time things did not end well. (It's a riveting tale -- see their blog ) Sadly Elsie died yesterday. Colin has asked that anyone who hears Elsie's story would give their dogs an extra dose of play this weekend in her honor.

He writes: "The only thing that I could think that would truly comfort Molly and I would be to know that this resulted in hundreds of real, additional fetches fetched, trees sniffed, muddy trails hiked, balls snatched, and that finally, dozens of conniving fleece people and untrustworthy knotted ropes will be brought to justice for their many crimes."

Here's their blog with pictures and the whole (well-written and often funny) story:

I know it would mean a lot to them if you would ask your readers to give their dogs a special mid-winter frolic this weekend.

Thanks so much,

Kellie Bartlett

So, please honour the rekhwest this weekend - and visit their blog to woof and purr some words of support and khomFURt -

We are going to dedikhate this Sunday's transport to Molly, Colin, and RosieElsie

******
Wednesday morning's special snow preservative - this is what has helped maintain my snow khover - we really didn't get much from any of this week's storms - my four to six inches are from last week's event
Who is that hunk?
Fluffy tail inspekhtion
My turn
Ziggy!
The khoating even held his Malamute-ness!
The Ziggy smile!

Here is a short video of us romping Wednesday evening after his arrival - we didn't get many good pikhs given the lighting in the house at 11pm - AND due to our speed - Mom did REALLY well at khapturing blurry ones!

Ziggy and his mom made a trip to visit with a friend who was in the area on business and staying about 20-25minutes South of us - we said 'why don't woo stay with us rather than drive bakhk to VA' so they did!

Mom and I had met Ziggy's mom in Gettsyburg a few years ago whem Malamute Nationals were held there - Ziggy had akhtually just entered her life shortly prior to that time - but we didn't meet him - what a fluffy handsome Mali Boy!

Thursday as Mom rounded the building to head to her parking area

She's got more skEYE pikhs she'll share this weekend - we wanted to share the ElsieRosie story - AND Ziggy's fun too!

Happy FrEYEday All!

Hugz&Khysses,

Khyra
