Prayer for our Friends

Please Lord, we ask that you take care of our dear dear friends, they are hurting so, and the feeling of loss is almost overpowering. Thank you for sending comfort to them with Dixie Pearl, she is peace and love. We are struggling trying to know what we can do to help them. Our hearts are empty and sad with loss of our friends. Thank you for listening, we need your guidance. Sarge and Rocky and Mom

From Winston, at the Bridge and still thinking of others. - 9/20, Plus Friendly Forums

This is WINston XXLP, doing a quick fly-by... So many Dogsters have written to say that my fight to battle back from the Menu Foods/Nutro poisoning has made me source of inspiration and a hero in their eyes. I'll tell you who the real heroes out there are... the rescue people on the front lines battling Puppy Mills and the poor pups that spend their entire lives as breeding livestock.

Today is Puppy Mill Awareness Day. And what better way to honor those heroes than with a donation to a bulldog rescue that is actively removing bullies from the puppy mill breeding population? Here's a recent email from CEBR about their last auction success:

Hello Chicago English Bully Rescue Friends and Supporters!

You most likely read our last email several weeks ago as we were preparing for a
puppy mill rescue mission. I have great news to report! Through generous
donations from friends of rescue we were able to save 14 bullies from a horrific
life in a puppy mill! What a success.

We plan to have a complete Website live by this weekend which will allow you to
get to know each of these girls. The URL:
http://www.puppymillrescues.ebullymatch.com.

As you can imagine, it has been a heck of few weeks trying to get all of these
bullies, plus our other beautiful rescues, settled and healthy.

Dearest friend, Winston, is at the Rainbow Bridge

Oh, no no no, we are reading this news of our beloved friend this morning, and the tears are falling and our thoughts are jumbled. Winston, you have been our friend for so so long, your family and we love them with all our hearts. Words are not enough to convey the sadness we have now, there are none right now.

Thank you for signing our Guestbooks!!

To all the pups and kitties who have signed our guestbooks, we thank you so much! Rocky and I appreciate your pictures and messages! We cannot always find your page to thank you with a personal message xo

My friend, Little Moe

Little Moe needs our prayers, and love, his cancer has returned. He is so close in thoughts and our hearts, we have our arms around him and his family.

Welcome Dixie!

Our dear friend, WINston, has a new sister! She is a beautiful and her name is Dixie. We are So happy for Winston and know that Dixie has just the best family!

Dogster Hero Contest Essay

we were nominated in a contest for My Dogster Hero, and we nominated Gibbon and Mia, our essay follows:

Rocky and Sarge here, you are so kind those who wrote about us, but we would not be able to accept any recognition. The things we do are for our friends, pals, pups we know and are friends with.

To be a true Dog Hero, you have to do for those pups you Do Not know, and there are two outstanding leaders in that.

For a start, look in the Dogsterholic Group Threads, you can see to see the many many things that they have started and funded out of their pockets and the work and effort, and this is only from One group, there are others that we do not belong to that they are involved and challenging and starting contests to help other pups, pups that they Do Not Know, that need friends or help, they are there.

These two Dog Heros are:

Gibbon 238846
Mia 574824

A "small" list of what these two have done since being on Dogster since 2005:
