Our Dog Walker Linda

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

Daddy got us a dog walker, cause he says he wants us to get outside more during the day when we are at work with him. Willie says its because Dixie’s ass is too big, and Lance said he doesn’t care why, he just wants to GO! Actually daddy hired the lady, Linda Bearce, because our past rescue was 10 pounds overweight, at 36 pounds. The average weight for a Cavalier is 17 lbs, but dogs are just like people and will eat too much if they can in many cases. Parents leave food down al the time, and give them too much food off the table. We eat O.M by Purina, daddy gets it at the vets office, OM stands for "Oh Momma" Willie says, but daddy says it stands for overweight management. Daddy thinks we don’t know that even the treats we get are pellets of the OM. Here’s a picture of our new dog walker. 021710 006

In this picture, we are watching as Arthur our foster brother leaves with his new parents. We had 11 foster brothers and sisters last year, and we’ve already had 2 this year already! Willie says its a good thing when fosters go to new homes, cause we have more toys and treats (the crummy OM ones) to share. Daddy says its a good thing to, because then we can save another Cavalier. We never go over a few weeks without getting another one. Make sure you visit the rescue site to check out the Cavaliers available for adoption.

New Rescue Arthur

Monday, January 25th, 2010

This is Arthur our newest foster. He’s 4 years old, sweet as can be. He is housebroken too. I can only say two negative things about him. He’s WAY overweight. and he Snores real loud. Its ok, Dixie says, all men snore. We think after he loses some weight he wont snore. His past mommy got old and had dementia, and couldn’t feed him correctly or even track what or when he was being fed. She is to be commended for recognizing that her companion was best with rescue. Arthur weighs in at 36 lbs (average weight for a Cavalier is 14-17 lbs), close to the largest I have ever seen. He is beginning a rigorous exercise regimen today (daddy hired a dog walker, you didn’t really think Daddy was going to do all that exercise did you?) He is eating O.M. (Overweight Management dog food by Purina, from the vet’s office). Dixie and Willie eat OM, and mange their figures quite nicely. Daddy says he needs a bath too, he has a LOT of nice hair. You can see other rescues at the National rescue site, or go there to fill out an application to adopt Arthur.
