Hi Everybody!

Tiny goes in today to have his stitches removed and he'll be able to start running and playing. His fostermom Michelle says that it's been hard trying to keep him quiet and calm while he healed these past 10 days, but now he's ready to roll!! He's probably never felt this good in his life, and he's just raring to go!! Michelle said she'll take new pictures soon. As soon as we get them, I'll post more.

Please don't forget our Raffle!! Only 1 week left!  Here's the info:

I wanted to do something to help raise funds for Tiny's surgery. This is what I came up with:
I am donating the cost of a cotton throw. It can be personalized. It can be made from ANY digital picture and it is made into a 50" x 60" 100% cotton throw. The winner of the raffle will need to provide me with a electronic copy of a pix they want made into the throw, I will send it in, pay for it, and ship it to the winner. The following is a link of where I am going to purchase the throw and more info:

Tickets are $5.00 each, 3 for $10.00 and 7 for $25.00. To pay via paypal, please send payment to redwon234@gmail.com  and please make sure to state on your payment that it is for "Tiny's Raffle".

Any money collected above and beyond what is needed for Tiny will be used for vet care for Mystie, a 10 year old blind girl who had puppies while in fostercare. Mystie is a 10 year old blind, preggers (was) Momma who was dumped at a shelter and the owners told the shelter to euthanize her. We pulled her, she was fostered in Texas, she had her babies, and now she's ready to be flown to Caroline down in FL to have surgery to remove her cataracts. And, unfortunately, Mystie also has heartworms and she needs to be treated for that. That poor old girl!!
