Giving Thanks For the Pets in Our Lives...
As the weather begins to
change and leaves turn to yellow, orange and red I begin to think of
Thanksgiving. It’s a time we stop and
think about all the blessings in our lives and give thanks for all that we
have.
I am blessed in many ways,
I have a wonderful husband, three amazing boys, my Mom and sisters and tons of
extended family. It’s been a tough year with many losses including losing
I am truly blessed and
thankful for everyone in my life including all the pets. With the heartache I have felt in the past
year, it seems I always turn to my pets to make me smile. Of course my family is always there for me
and their love gets me through the tough times, but there is something about a
wet nose and furry coat to hug on when I’m feeling down. My pets always give me unwavering love and
devotion. Pets have no idea what bad or good is going on in our life, but when
we cry they are sad, when we laugh they play, when we mess up they do not judge
us.
We recently brought a new
chocolate lab into our home. Her name is
Callie and she fits right in with two other labs and bassette hound, Jett, Bear

For the past 9 years my
boys and I have had a wonderful tradition during the Thanksgiving season. During the holiday season we get the list of items needed from our local animal shelter, Dumb Friends League in Denver Colorado. The list consists
of many pet supplies including paper towels, dog food, cat food, kitty litter,
cat and dog toys and many other items necessary to keep the shelter
running. My boys and I make a day of
going to the stores and buying up as much as our budget can handle. Each of us takes a copy of the list and
decides individually what we want for the pets in need. It’s so much fun to see what we each of us
picks. We then take the bags of goodies
and deliver it straight to the shelter.
I love the idea that we make it a family day and we know that every
penny that we are spending goes directly to the animals in need.
There is so much to be
thankful for throughout the year, so as Thanksgiving Day approaches and we
begin to plan the dinner menu, make those reservations, decorate the house –
take a break, and give thanks for the pets in your life and give back to those
pets in need.
What better time than
Thanksgiving to give gratitude for the pets in our home and help
