Today we aren't doing FitDog Friday for two reason's...Ma was just slammed this week with all kinds of things so she is super behind on everything and apologizes for not commenting on all her blogger buddies posts and hopes to catch up on what's being going on in bloggerville this weekend but her weekend is looking crazy busy too so please be patient with Ma cuz she's a little frazzled :) but the other reason is because she thinks this takes top priority right now....Susie and Sidebite live less than 20 miles away from the awful destruction in Moore, Oklahoma and have graciously started a donation program to help all of the animals there. Since most of my blogger buddies have animals, I think this is the perfect bunch of peeps to ask to help in any way you are able. I am by no means a wealthy Ma (except in spirit), and know often people won't donate cuz they can only offer a few dollars...maybe only $5 and are too embarrassed to only donate a smaller amount-don't let your pride allow your heart to suffer; if everyone donated even $5 it all adds up and we'd sure appreciate the $5 or any amount at all if it were OUR poor pups all alone and scared looking for their families! I hate asking anyone for money or to donate and will seldom make a post like this but this is VERY important to Max and I and we stand behind this wonderful cause 100%! Please do what you can and visit Susie and Sidebite today. They have made it VERY easy to donate by check or credit card. Thank you so much Susie and Sidebite for all of your efforts, I am honored to be your blogger buddy!!

Thanks for letting us know about the Tornado fund. We sent a check today!
ReplyDeleteYou guys rock! Thanks so much and I know Susie and Sidebite will be thrilled too!
DeleteI did not know that Susie & Sidebite were so close to the devastation. I'm glad they're safe and I'll be visiting and donating today...Thanks for the tip Max!
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Gizmo! I didn't know how close they were either until I read their post - wow, so happy they are ok!! Thanks so much and I am sure Susie and Sidebite will be sooo happy too!
DeleteIt was nice of them to set that up.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice relaxing weekend. We are in the same boat. A busy weekend and way behind...lol. It is the time of year.
We thought it was wonderful of Suie and Sidebite too and they sure made it easy for us all to do whatever we could too! Yes, I can see from your blog how busy your life is too right now! I love to see all your pixs!
DeleteMax you are right it all adds up. No worries we see you when you are less busy. Have a fabulous Friday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Thanks for understanding Molly, you know I LOVE your blog and hate to go without reading it on a daily basis! :) You always make me smile!
DeleteIt is really great of Susie and Sidebite to help the dogs.

I thought so too and I am soooo happy they are ok!
DeleteI hope your life slow downs soon. That's awesome you're helping out too.
ReplyDeleteLong as life doesn't stop, just slows :). I'm just trying to get the word out since I don't have a lot of $$ to offer :)
DeleteWith that face, Max will get whatever he wants I think!
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Emma!
DeleteSusie and Sidebite are to be commended!!! We donated to the BlogPaws/Pet360/World Vets thingy yesterday, Mom doesn't work so that is it for us right now, but if we can do more we will!
ReplyDeleteYes, I had already donated what I could to the Red Cross and this so that's all I can do for the moment too :), couldn't donate to the Pet360 :( too
DeleteI'm super-super behind today - I will visit the blog. Have a relaxed friday
ReplyDeleteYou too Easy. Today is a wedding at 10am and reception at 6pm and Dad early in the morning:)
DeleteHow could anyone resist that face. We sent our momney in and Mom is busy making crate blankets to send....dogs after surgery or injury often need a little blankie.
ReplyDeleteWow, how kind of you to donate and especially the crate blankets!!! What a super wonderful thing to do and I'm sure very much needed and appreciated!!! Hugs!
Deleteyep, we helped them out yesterday.....mom says her weekend is crazy and she won't be able to blog till tuesday....shudder!!!

DeleteYou're right Max every little helps.
ReplyDeleteSheba.
I just think that I don't have a lot either but if everyone did whatever they could that would help tremendously!
DeleteOh that face, melting, we are going over to help right now
ReplyDeleteurban hounds

DeleteYep every little helps Max, we haven't a lot but we will give something xx00xx
ReplyDeleteMollie and Alfie
Me too, but that's so sweet of you :) - we're in the same boat :)
DeleteHi Max and Liz,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post! We will definitely donate some money over at Susie and Sizebite's. There is also a Facebook auction going on right now where people can donate items for the auction, bid on items or donate monetarily to the cause. The donated items don't have to be pet related either. Like you said, every little bit helps! Here's the link to the Facebook auction to help the animals of the Oklahoma Tornado Disaster - https://www.facebook.com/events/126521710882954/
