Thankful Thursday





Do you know Ruby the Airedale?  You know, she has that lovely yard filled with beautiful flowers and a super cool tunnel where she likes to take all her treasures.

Well, that sweet Ruby did something very nice for us.  A little while ago, Goose and his Mom had a name-my-monkey contest AND Ruby won!!!  But she asked Goose to send the prize to us.  How sweet was THAT!!!  We received this great card with the picture of a Weimaraner (we think that Reilly and Denny's Mom made it).  Inside the card was a note from Goose and his Mom explaining what Ruby wanted to do.  AND a gift card to one of our favorite stores - Petco.


(That is Lightning's snooter photo bombing.)

 



With Mom not being so mobile lately, we haven't had a chance to use the card, but we know we will be able to find something we all like.


Phantom wants some yummy treats, and Ciara and Lightning are hoping for a monkey like Goose has.


Speaking of Phantom, he has something wrong with his front right leg/shoulder.  He was at the vet's this morning because he started limping very badly last night.
 
Now he is on some anti-inflammatory meds to see if they help.  The vet thinks he might have a sprain or a soft tissue injury.  He also mentioned another possibility that Mom doesn't even want to think about.  So if you could spare a little bit of the power of the paw for our senior sibe, we would be so grateful to you.




Woos - Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning

  3. We're hoping it's the same problem Bailey had a couple weeks ago. Rest and some Rimadyl for a week took care of it and she's running with the pack again now. We have our paws crossed.

  4. Prayers for Phantom! Sure hope that the Rimadyl and rest will help! That was real nice of Goose to send the gift to you guys!! Hope your mom is feeling better. It sure has been a crazy summer. Mama totally loves that card too! xoxo Chloe and LadyBug

  6. What a sweet thing for Ruby to give you her prize! I do hope it helped cheer y'all up a bit.

    Phantom most definitely has my prayers, and those of my boys too. Phantom is my favorite out of your pack. Hope he gets to feeling better soon.

  7. WE don't know Ruby but it sounds so much like something Goose and his mom would do. What wonderful buddies we all have in blogland. I'm hoping Mom's back is doing better and she is feeling so much better each day-I think and will pray that Phantom just wanted Mom to have some company. Keep me posted-8-)

  15. Hi Op Pack,

    I know Ruby, met her a few months before Suka passed. She is a lovely, beautiful pup! And what a heart! So wonderful of her to forward her prize to you. She is special :->

    Sending healing prayers to your mom that she feels better soon so you can all go to Petco and find some yummy treats and fun toys!

    Lightening, love the snooter photo bomb. You are such a funny pup!

    Phantom, my thoughts and prayers are with you that you heal and have nothing more than a sprain. Stay strong, sweetie! *hugs

    Cheers,

    K

  18. That was so nice of Ruby! She rocks! We're big fans and love to see her in her tunnel!

    Hope Phantom is mending... NO MORE SICK WOOS!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Sending Phantom super power of the paw. Take it easy, Phantom, and hope you feel more sprightly soon. A monkey from Petco would probably help lots.

  20. Phantom, we're sending you lots of POTP and some good vibes from Florida. Feel better soon!

  21. First of all Mommy says "not my Phantom, he will be just fine" "He just needs some rest". I am crossing paws and Mommy is praying. That was so nice of Ruby, she is also not feeling well, I must get a batch of magic bubbles going to all of you.

  23. Oh Woos, we are definitely not around as much as we would like to be to befriend everyone better. We have seen Ruby around (it was through her blog that we discovered Blogville) but never had a chance to go through and say hi yet - maybe now Melon will get a push to do it!
    Anyway, sorry for the rambling, Melon in particular is quite long-winded. (You may have noticed already, haha!) You are well deserving of a gift and we are sending POTP to Phantom. Yes my paws are little but I know they are very strong. And Melon has a soft spot for the senior ones and definitely a soft spot for Phantom.
    Try not to worry too much about possibilities Momster, it won't change the outcome, it will just make you feel worse.

    P.S. Hope your mum's health improves soon too!!

  28. That was so kind and we hope mum gets to go to Pecto to get you a monkey too. Phantom we hope it is just a sports injury and we are pretty sure it is. Rest up pal and take it easy. Pip gave us a scare the other week when her back legs went but she is doodling around like it never happened. We send a big load of the POTP to you.
    Have a fabulous Friday.
    Best wishes Molly
