I'm going to take a blog break for the holidays and will resume posting the first week in January. In the meantime, I thought I would leave you with these images for the Christmas season. I took these two photos of blind Goldie and blind Widget a few minutes ago, sleeping in the chairs downstairs…

Wow! The official announcement is out and our humble little Rolling Dog Ranch came in second nationwide in the Shelter Challenge, winning $5,000 for the animals! Awesome! Alayne and I are so grateful to each and every one of you who kept voting for the ranch, day after day for all those months. THANK YOU!!!…

Alayne got this shot of me carrying blind Fuzzy and blind Clyde out to the front yard first thing this morning. A few of our more "vocal" guests spend the night in the recently built "Dog Wing Annex" on the second floor of the barn. This group of guests include Miss Party Hearty herself, Widget,…

This little tyke arrived shortly after 9 a.m. this morning from Louisiana. Rebecca Y., who runs the Shreveport rescue group Becky's Bridge, took him in from another shelter in the state. In her email to me a couple of weeks ago, she wrote, "Is there any chance of you taking a blind, senior yorkie? He…

I took these photos today after we turned the horses out for some exercise in the paddocks. That usually means one thing: Cash, our blind 4-year old, spends the first part of every session pestering his two pasture mates, the much older and much bigger Bridger and Hawk. Somehow the little squirt ended up as…

Dexter was in one of his "needy" moods yesterday (hey, anyone know a Dachshund who isn't needy?), and this translated into him taking every opportunity to snuggle next to blind Goldie — who was in one of her favorite spots, the laundry basket bed in the living room. Dexter loves the laundry basket as much…

Here's another set of pre-snow photos that Alayne took recently, these of wobbly Soba playing with a kong. Soba was born with cerebellar hypoplasia, which makes her wobble and "dance" when she walks. With this condition, the more an animal like Soba tries to concentrate on a fine motor skill-type task, i.e., trying to pick…

I thought you'd enjoy seeing these photos of Suzi in her new home with Marcia. Beckie, Marcia's daughter, sent the photos to me and said, "Suzi is the sweetest girl, we all love her to pieces!" In the one above, that's Marcia with Suzi and two of her Labs. In an email to me…

Alayne got these shots a couple of weeks ago and they've been in the queue for a while, so I figured I'd better post 'em before I forget! She saw blind Lucy squeezed in tight between blind Austin and Libby one morning in the dog yard (click on photo for larger image). When Lucy heard…

As I think everyone knows, one of the nice features of this property is a beautiful pond below the house and dog yards. It's roughly 100' x 100' in size (30 m x 30 m), is spring fed, and water circulates from the spring, through the pond and out through a pipe even in winter. …
