I did sleep well and had lots of wonderful dreamsheart

And this morning it was raining, gosh, it's been ages since I've seen rain ... but it actually triggered some extra hops just because ...

And then we went into the breakfast room.

Thing is the floor was recently waxed and became extra slippery so I slid and as a consequence panicked (each of my legs went a different directionugh) so Mom rushed back to the bedroom and got my booties which was a HUGE relief 

She also got me my big bed and not the portable one so I would relax and calm down, she is SO sweet heart

And guess what ? 

His brother, who lives in South Carolina, has rescued THREE tripawds so far!

All of these doggies lost their legs in hunting traps and the vet contacted him each time to ask whether he would take one, then another, then another tripawd ... and this Angel's answer was always yes !!!!

Mom was truly ecstatic with joy and asked Richard to please tell his brother about us, she is sure all of us at Tripawds would be totally delighted to hear from this gentle soul heart

Mom and me are really hopping he will join us at Tripawds heart

And Richard (whom we just met) introduced us to his friend Nissim who is a fantastic artist and a truly beautiful soul heart

He invited us for tea at his stunning house so off we went and Mom had a really fantastic time, chatting and chatting away while I slept on the carpet taking in the warmth from the fireplace.

Pure bliss heart
