Dog Day Sunday
Well, it's been an interesting week since we 'launched' this version of DDW. Thursday was rainy; had the foresight to check the weather online before FRED& I went on our rounds - not a raindrop in sight. Naturally, halfway over to walk Bruce it started sprinkling lightly. I thought "oh well, this isn't too bad we'll be fine" It started sprinkling harder & harder. Had to towel Freddy off when we arrived; dried Bruce off too when we got back from his walk (not to mention my wet self). AND just as naturally 1/2 a block from home it stopped..........
Lesson: don't trust the Weatherman OR the so-called radar!!
Today was the complete opposite: Gorgeous sunny weather that we usually get this time of year ("Indian Summer"). Right as I had finished bathing Fred, our ol' buddy Rex showed up for an overnight stay. Rex is a mountain dog, from up near Yosemite; he's 90 pounds of love. A gentle giant. Fred's bestest & oldest buddy.
Tomorrow should be busy: Fred & Rex on a morning walk; Bruce mid-day & an extra evening walkie (his mom Deb is really busy with a rollout at her work); Fenix for a mid-day walk. Fenix is a sweet, sweet girl ( terrier mix, I think - I need to ask her Mom); she was abused & neglected and is a little shy. However she LOVES Fred & Doggy Daddy and really likes seeing us & coming over to hang out after her walk. In apartment or out on the deck. That's where Rex is right now.
Ahhhh, it's a dog's life.........!

Dear Friends Who Love Animals,
I am writing to ask you to help me get the word out about a wonderful free service to your patrons/customers. Any links you can put up to our site will be helpful to them. Forwarding this email to any other people or groups who may be interested is also appreciated.
We are the Interfaith Association of Animal Chaplains. We provide free phone counseling to bereaved pet owners. Some of our professional Chaplains also provide other services (euthanasia visits, memorial services, etc.) on a fee-for-service basis, while others perform them at no cost as part of their congregational ministry. Each Chaplain works independently to serve people and animals in need. To find Animal Chaplains in your area, go to our site at www.AnimalChaplains.com and click on "clergy list".
Our site also has many other free services, such as memorial readings, pet blessings, interfaith scriptural support, sermons on pet ownership, animal ministry support, guest book/blogs, etc. If you have a section of your website that assists your clients with pet loss support, we would appreciate being listed there. We thank-you for helping us to get the word out about the many free services available on AnimalChaplains.com to pet owners and the animals they love.
Thank-you for caring for animals!
Yours in peace and friendship,
Chaplain Nancy Cronk
