Beautiful Painting I Had to Share

Teresa J. Geron — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 03:24:02 +0000

I was watching “The Science of Dogs” last night and during the very last segment they quickly flashed beautiful images of dogs and I briefly saw this painting and have spent the past 2 hours finding it on-line. I had to share it because it embodies all that is “dog”.

“Sympathy” by Briton Riviere:

Christmas Donations Greatly Appreciated

Teresa J. Geron — Fri, 26 Dec 2008 21:12:03 +0000

On Christmas Eve the back of my Explorer was FULL with donations from friends and family for local animal organizations. Food, Treats, Toys, Kitty Litter, Bedding, Cleaning Chemicals, old Towels & Blankets, Leashes, Collars, etc… were all warmly received by the Franklin County Dog Shelter & the Capital Area Humane Society. Cat Welfare was not open on Christmas Eve so I will make this last donation on Saturday. Many thanks to all who participated and I look forward to making this an annual event.

Merry Christmas!

Miss Maggie

Major Margaret Houlihan aka Maggie was the perfect girl dalmatian. She could do a Lana Turner-type pose for a camera . . . she nodded her head in confirmation when someone called her beautiful. But beind those gorgeous eyes, she was a rough-and-tumble dalmatian. She dug up the azaleas in the backyard (twice!). She pulled the elbow curve from the downspout of the gutter too many times to count. She ran and jumped for the lowest branch on the pine tree and held on for a swing. But she transformed herself when she walked in the door.

Colonel Potter

My first dalmatian. I got Potter (yes, a M*A*S*H name) my first week of graduate school at Ohio State. I also got a red convertible that week. Life was good. Potter got me through two graduate degrees, a divorce, and two moves.

Potter was particularly handsome. Some holidays–he got more mail than I did!

Added the Ashes~ and some tips for wear

Teresa J. Geron — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:04:19 +0000

Tonight I added the ashes of Gino, Lamont & Mycroft to their respective lockets. This was both a sad moment, because I miss my “boys” but also one of tremendous satisfaction as this crazy idea of mine has been in development for over 5 years and today it was realized. Tomorrow I am going to wear all three under a sweater. I’m not sure just how I want to wear them. I’d like to be able to change them from bracelets to necklaces whenever I choose.

In order for you to do the same you will need to look up some useful jewelry terms/items: enhancer bail, snap enhancer, split ring & spring ring. All of these are great alternatives or accents to the bail that’s included with the locket. I have found that my local crafts shops and bead shops have lovely selections of these in sterling with reasonable prices.

And let me say just one more time to go easy on the super glue! A little goes a long way.

Mycroft ~ Puppy 9 weeks

: Mycroft at 9 weeks

This is where love at first sight really applies. I had to have him. I’m such a sucker for a Collie face.

Gino

My Gino Liking the View in San Mateo, CA 2003

Some fun things about my Gino: He loved to “stow away” in all kinds of bags. He loved walking on a leash and even more he loved going to PetSmart and literally strutting up and down the aisles. He’d sit like a King holding Court & allow people to stop and admire him. Dogs would swerve to avoid him~ although he never had to hiss, growl or take a defensive posture. He regally sat and let them skulk away. He was a very special guy.
