I found The Straightness of Trees during a blog hop. I don’t remember exactly when. It likely had something to do with Pit Bulls. One of the things I noticed right away, besides the great name, was the fact that she too had lost a dog to hemangiosarcoma, the same cancer that took our Smokey angel.

She’s only been writing sporadically recently, but I am always happy when I see a new post. This last post especially made me happy for her. She has finally realized that she has a job she truly loves. Late Bloomer or not, that’s wonderful.

Kristine (and Shiva) of Rescued Insanity just celebrated their 2nd blogging anniversary. I haven’t even been reading the blog for a year, so I’m glad they’ve stuck around this long and hope they’re around for another 2+ years.

Her post on Friday, Does Your Dog Have a Theme Song? has had me thinking all night about that. Do June and Larry have a theme song? Did Moree or Smokey? What about little Howie? And honestly, I’m going to be thinking about this for like a week or more- until I come up with theme songs for my dog. Sad, huh?

Blog Feature: Bringing Up Bella

Bringing Up Bella is dedicated to Leslie’s current dog, Bella. She’s a sweet little thing, but has some “issues”- such as extreme fear of thunderstorms (which I completely understand).While she is definitely loved and adored, Bella is not Leslie’s first dog, and we all know how hard it can be for the new dog to stack up against the old dog. We get a good look at their differences in Opposites Distract. But the thing Leslie really does remember is that it’s not about the dog that was, it’s about the dog that is, even if she’s Not Quite Perfect.

Blog Feature: Doggerel

Abby over at Doggerel was the first other pet blogger I started following on a regular basis. A lot of the other pet sites I now follow came originally from her Pup Links.  So, thank you for introducing me to some great sites.

Abby doesn’t have a dog, yet, but hopes that will change soon. In the meantime, she’s doing all the studying and volunteering she can, in order to be the best dog owner ever when she finally gets her chance.

What I know is that whatever dog Abby and her husband bring home, will be one lucky pup.

Sick yesterday so forgot to post this

 

I read mostly personal finance and pet blogs. Since I started this feature with a personal finance blog, this week, we’re looking at a pet blog. Lindsay at ThatMutt is one of my favorite pet bloggers. She has a practical world view and is more about getting pets into good homes than into a “perfect” home. As Voltiare said, “the perfect is the enemy of the good”.

Today, I am highlighting her post about running with dogs, since that’s her business and I am uber impressed by her ability to run a marathon, let alone roughly 15 miles, every day.
