The Great Lake Walk Fundraiser for Bully Buddies and Respect-A-Bull

DEAR DOG LOVERS. I am doing the Great Lake Walk on Sept 18. It is 52 km around Lake Cowichan and should take me about 10 hours I think to complete. Iam raising money for 2 dog rescues. Bully Buddies (where we got our sweet boy) and a local Rescue Respect-A-Bull. THese are both small rescues that rely on donations to save dogs, give urgent and needed vet care and even surgeries. Would anyone be willing to donate. Even 1$, 5$ or more!!!! I will come pick it up! ♥There are hundreds of people doing the walk. Some just for the personal challenge and some to raise money. I did the Goldriver great walk 5 years ago and raised money. I found that when you get really tired and don't want to go on having a cause you are doing it for is very motivating. So I picked something close to my heart. My doggy and the great work that small rescues do. I am hoping to get as much money I can and hopefully it blesses you guys like having brenin has blessed me.

now if you have no idea who I am but know the rescues and want to give even a little bit. You can donate any amount through their paypal. Please just label it for the walk so at the end I can see what my feet and legs are worth!

CHECK OUT OUR NEW BLOG!!We've started a new blog at www.bullybuddiesrescue.blogspot.com. We've moved everything over so go check it out and let us know what you think of it! The Joys of SeniorsThere are many perks to adopting older-senior dogs.

All four dogs in this photo are over seven years old. Usually foster dogs don't saunter into my house with the skills to sit, let alone sit still for a photo amidst other dogs. Ella and Tibbs are the perfect fosters- easy-going, well-trained, and pros at sleeping and cuddling. They are both up for going for a walk and playing ball, but they don't require hours of exercise. As someone who is currently working full-time and going to school, I have time to hang out, but not always get out and about. They give me kisses while I am struggling through an essay, playing at the park provides a nice relief from the books, and nothing provides stress relief cuddling with them! I definitely could not be living with four young dogs!

Tibbs readying for the next test in Sleeping 101.

The only problem with all these lazy dogs is that sometimes it is hard to for the humans to find a comfy space.

Perfect for lounging around in the sun with.

You can see why it is oh so easy to fall in love with an older dog.

Please think good thoughts for Ella. She has just been diagnosed with an enlarged heart, and heart murmur. We're waiting to get her into the specialists in order to get a clearer diagnosis. In the meantime she is perfecting the art of making everyone she meets fall in love. We're hoping to stick Canine-Good Citizen and Therapy Dog certificates on her, as we think she will fly through the tests.
