    And say the snow is way too high for their tiny little bones...

    You might take a break from quilting to make blizzard sized potty pads. And some coats for the kids....

    I love dogs. BUT, if I had 13 in or out of the house, you would have to put me in the loony bin. I couldn't handle it.
    Bless you for taking care to see that all of them are warm and their needs are tended to.

    They seem to like their coats. They look cozy cuddled up on the coach.

    Sometimes this house resembles a loony bin. Added to that, the house is on the market and must be clean at all times. Arghhh..

    Kathy- i met the local Airedale rescue person at an open house last week, and thought of you. Luckily, iggies are smaller than Airedales, but- they get cabin fever like little kids after a while if they can't run.

    Love Italian Greyhounds. They are so delicate, and do not do well in the cold. I have about the same number of dogs here but all of yours put together probably wouldn't equal one of my dogs. Stay safe there.

    I try to keep the numbers here under 10, but it's been another banner year for rescue, and sometimes you just have to suck it up. 8 of these dogs are fosters, waiting for their forever homes. 13 is approaching hoarder status, and is nearly a full time job. Not to mention putting the vet's kids through college....

    Angels come in all sorts of unmarked packaging. You are one such Angel for fostering those lovely animals. There will be a place for you in heaven, and I know there will be no doggy-doo to clean up when you get there
