bath/yuck!

Oh my goodness, mom gave me and all my brudders and sistahs a baff today!!! I can't imagine why? I thought i smelled good and didn't think i was dirty at all. But mom said she had cleaned the house, vacuuming and all that stuff so figured we all needed cleaning up too.
Y'all run for the hills. Them humans are out to get us!

Hugs to all, Woody

new dog house

Our human daddy died 6 months ago on June 18, 2011.
Since that time, mom found us a new dog house to live in and we let her live there too. It is a brick house and she has a place to put her vehicle that she drives to work. We have a new big fenced yard to play in to keep us safe from the cars and any other dogs that come thru our area.
We are happy here and maybe mom will post some pictures of the new house soon.
Merry Christmas everyone!

new sister

HI folks. I have a new basset sister. Her name is AnnaNoelle. She is blind from untreated glaucoma. We dont have a page for her yet cos mama doesnt have a regular computer but asap we will get a page for Anna up and running.

Snuggling weather!

it is snuggling weather folks and I'm getting my share!

I am sooooooo humbled

Thank you Dogster for making my diary one of the daily pics.
I am so humbled.
Life in my new home is great. I follow mom all over the place.
She takes me places as you can see from two of the pictures of me with my mommy.
I sleep right next to mom at night and she snuggles with me. That is the life.
Thanks again Dogster for this honor.
Have a great day all, Woody

Enjoying outings with my mom

Mom took off a couple of days this week to spend with daddy and us houndies.
On thursday, we all went to the river. Mom, Daddy, Jaime, and me went and we swam. Yes i said swim. Mom brought along a life jacket for us doggies and one at a time, we went swimming. So on my profile, you will see a picture of me with mom in the river.
Well then the next day, mom went to Petsmart and took me with her. But as she was talking to her friends, my little feets got hot so mom put me back in the car and turned it on until she was ready to go in the store. And when she was ready, she put my blankie in the buggy and i got to ride in the store. I didnt even have to walk.
Life is good in my new home.
All doggies should be so lucky.
Have a great weekend, Woody

going on a picnic

This morning, mom and dad decided to take me and my sister Jaime on a picnic. But it started storming so we didnt get to stay long. However, i got to snoop around while mom walked me on my leash. It was fun and i am learning that when i get in the car, i am coming back home again.
I hope they do that again soon. It was nice to get out and sniff some good smells.

Starting Anew

I came to BHRA over a year ago. Not much is known about where i came from or why but one thing i know is i am happy in my new home.
I did get adopted over a year ago to some guys in a condo but since i like to get into things, they kept me crated alot. So they felt like it was best if i was sent back to rescue.
Then another guy adopted me but i only had an old hound to play with and he didnt want to play so i got out and/or barked alot so the police came to visit the man. So then i came back again. Then i was fostered by my new forever mommy a few months ago. I came to a home with 8 other dogs, 7 of which were bassets but 2 of those bassets were sick. One went to the bridge about a month ago from cancer. Then Devon, my mom's side kick went to the bridge and left a HUGE whole in her heart. Mom believes God and Devon sent me to help her heal. So here i am loving on my new mommy. I have been with her to visit the local shelter to make some donations and also to visit a friend for a moment. I am always happy to come back home. I am learning that if i get in the car, i am coming home again.
Recently my mom found her horse of 22 years dead. She has been very upset so i have been working hard to keep her happy. Mom says i am doing pretty good at it too.
I make funny faces and run around all happy. That makes mommy smile.
So i am loving life with my new mom and furkid siblings.
Life is good, Woody
