He who is cruel to animals
   becomes hard also in his dealings with men.
   We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals

 
 

Meet Skeezer
He is a Miniature Schnauzer
 His is 13 years old
And he is my baby!
  I love him SO much
   (yes he was neutered when he was 6 mos. old)


Overall Skeezer has been a very good boy
   He has always been my "best friend"
   Oh there has been some things he has got into
   I will try and come up with some of them....
   Let me think...just where do I begin??? ha! ha!
   When skeez was a small puppy
   he liked my knee-high pantyhose
   uh...he liked them so much
   he would eat them!!
   Well I won't tell you how this story...
   uh..."came out"!!!
   Skeezer has always had a good appetite!!
   For his food, our food, any kind of food.....
   Once he opened up the kitchen cabinet
   and ate a two pound bag of Oreo Cookies
   As we all know chocolate and animals are a big no no
   He was wired to say the least
   A trip to Dr. Mike and shots of valuim
   and he was good as new
   Still having the sweet tooth he had acquired
   He was in a constant search of junk food
I can remember the time he ate all of the Valentine Candy
We went out to dinner only to return to empty boxes of candy
Not only did he eat my candy he ate Tonya's too
   To the Vet here we go.........
 
 

   Next came Easter.....
   You guessed it.....he ate everything in Tonya's Easter basket.
   He thought the Easter Bunny was the best!!

   When Tonya played softball
   she would sell candy bars for the softball team
   I really contributed alot to that cause
   Thanks to Skeezer getting candy bars,
   he found them in my purse,
   it didn't matter where the candy bars were
   by now Skeezer was a "Chocoholic"
   yup......you guessed it...to the Vet
   All those times Skeezer made it through the chocolate eating..
   It didn't matter where we put it
   He always managed to find it
   Skeezer didn't always go for the junk food....
   He did eat some what healthy food at times...
   We had friends over one time...
   Enjoying the summer afternoon
   We planned dinner together..
   Our friends brought with them
   three pounds of BBQ..
   By now we knew to really put things where
   Skeez could not reach them...
   Well we thought we had the BBQ in a safe
   "No-Skeez" location
   What we didn't know....when searching for food..
   Skeezer could become a mountain goat and climb!
   We came in to see the kitchen drawers open
   (guess that was his ladder)
   the empty container of what use to be BBQ
   on the floor and a very fat and full dog!! (guilty looking too)
   I don't think he ate for a few days after that
   There are so many things I could tell you about Skeezer
   I guess you can tell I'm an animal lover!
   I do know that animals gives us unconditional Love
   When no one else is there for us...
   there they are ever so faithful by our side...
 
 
 

   I believe in taking care of our pets
   Regular check ups
   All shots up to date
   And its so very important to have your pets  spayed or neutered
   I have seen so many animals abandoned by the roadside
   This is not the solution to animal over population
   Please!....have your pets spayed or neutered!!!

   Most of all.. Give them lots of Love and Attention
   After all...Our Friends have "feelings" too
 
 
 
 
 

   "He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
   You are his life,his love, his leader.
   He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his
   heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion
   -- Unknown
   If there was any petting to be done...he chose to do it.
   Often he would sit looking at me, and then,
   moved by a delicate affection, come and pull at my
   coat and sleeve until he could touch my face with his
   nose, and then go away contented."
   -- Charles Dudley Warner, "Calvin"

In 1999 there were two counties in Tennessee with Dump Bins of which two
have been demolished. Receptacles to hold unwanted, discarded, ill or old
cats and dogs. Age, health or size is of no consequence. It has been found
that there are 9 states currently using this method of animal control
besides  Tennessee, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Kentucky, Massachusetts,
New Mexico, North Carolina, Texas & Virginia. These are the states we know about.
 
 

This Animal Rights Issue has been on my local news many times.
I am not proud of the fact that Tennessee has Animal Dump Bins.
Please follow the link below to stop this cruelty to innocent animals!
