Multiple Exposure

There are three cats and three dogs in this picture - can you pick them out?

Noele Up Close

The picture was taken with Noele at the top of a tall cat tree on her first evening with the new family. It didn't take her long to get used to the new surroundings.

New Arrival

Noele is the latest edition to the managie - she is the best surprise gift for Christmas 2007 from our daughter. She is an active one, too - expect some videos to appear on the blog in the near future starring Noele.

Dallas for Daughter

Say hello to Dallas, my daughter's new puppy. She brought it over for us to watch while she finished some Christmas shopping nearby. Dallas is a female mix of German Shorthaired Pointer (first pic below) and Rottweiler. He has the black Rottweiler coat with some of facial attributes of the pointer.

Buddy visits his friends at the vet

Buddy the Basset has to visit the vet for a shot once a month. He thoroughly enjoys the visits, despite being stuck every time. The Drake Center for Veternary Care is where we adopted Buddy, who was released for euthanasia by his first owner after Buddy was diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency. So, Buddy is always excited to see the folks that saved his life.

Thanksgiving

The family was together for Thankgiving, with the humans being outnumbers by pets (as usual). Used the Flip videocam to capture some of the day in the attached video mix (the Flip software makes it easy to mix the video to a sound track). Hope you like this first movie I've posted to this blog.
