Puppy Love...

I love my dog. He's the 15 lb. king of our castle. He was the man of the house before Dave was, so he has a bit of a feeling of entitlement. I think that's the Yorkie in him!

This week is National Pet Week, so in an effort to show y'all my favorite family members and raise a few bones for the Town Lake Animal Center I'm asking for your help (no worries, you'll be spending my money, not yours :). TLAC is working to make Austin a NO KILL city!! The problem is that their current facility is just too small to house all of the animals. They have a wonderful network of foster families (though they could always use more!) and rescue groups as they strive to save animals.

Now for the fun part! I'm taking a page out of Sara's book (go comment there too!!)...

For every comment received on this post, Dave and I will donate $1 to the Town Lake Animal Center of Austin, TX!

With a second of your time (the time it takes to comment) you will help save an animal's life! And you will put a smile on my face with your comment.

Happy Friday, friends! I hope you enjoy a little fun in the sun this weekend! Love on your mommas! And thank you, thank you, thank you From Rookie and the Gyllenhalls! (Maggie and Jake are my parent's dogs...Rookie's BFFs and my other love bugs)

I can't even tell Lola & Stella about all the fun that Rookie and the Gyllenhalls have! They would just die of jealousy! I will admit though that I am a little jealous that we aren't neighbors so they could all play together! How fun! love you, girl!

What a sweet, sweet idea. These furbabies really do make our lives that much more wonderful, don't they?!

Your dog is so cute! This is such an awesome way to donate to such a great cause!

What would we do without our fur babies? Life would be less fulfilled without them!

love love love this! I am actually a foster parent for "Friends of Jacksonville Animals" a non-profit that works with the City of Jax to find homes, raise money for heartworm treatment and other medical issues and to facilitate the foster program there. It's awesome to take care of the animals that are sick or need a place to stay until they are adoptable...


Just yesterday our local paper had an article about how euthenasia has gone down 70% in Jacksonville over the last year or so. It's amazing and I think its great that Austin is trying to become a "no kill" city!
