Oh Our Dogness
So Much has been happening.
We've had a GREAT Response
in preparation for the Worldwide Moment
This coming Sunday

As we count down the Days and Hours and Minutes Here
We've stayed busy
Moma came Home one Day
with a new (very old) copper Tub
and
We thought she bought it just for Us
to use for bobbing for Apples
LOTS and LOTS of Fun
Even if we did have to work very hard to get those Apples
We each had very different Styles.
I nudged them around
and
Fergi eventually stuck her whole Snout in the Water.
And then
This past Saturday Night
We got to meet our VerySpecialFriends
The White Dogs' Family
Siku Marie (The White Dog)
The Mighty Quinn (The Other White Dog)
and their People

for Miss Fergi
Who cuddled and connected
for a long long Time
with White Dog's Moma

In the meantime
Our Moma got to bury her Hands
in the billowy VerySoftCloud
of Siku Marie and Quinn's amazingly soft Furs
So did NinaGirl
It was Amazing!
The White Dog Family
Was on their way from Albuquerque, New Mexico
to Ft. Collins, Colorado
for the Inaugural 2 Million Dogs Puppy Up! Walk
a two mile walk to increase Awareness about and gather Funds for
Canine Cancer Research and a Cure
on Sunday
You can read all about it
(it was a powerful experience, in more ways than one!)
and see some great photos Here
and see some videos Here!
Meeting them was Another Example
of how Very Special
and Exceptionally Wonderful
the Friends are that we've met through our Blog
This Family shared true and free Love with Us
through their Kind Words
Gentle Voices
Tender Hugs and Scritchies
Patient Approaches
Tasty Dinner
(Hey! we didn't get any Tidbits or Tasties!)
and Generous Gifts
(ahem ... some of which ... Moma ... are on the TooHighCounter)
(When ... just WHEN are they coming down?)
It was ... simply ... Wonderful
and
We really look forward to seeing Them again.
In the Meantime
Like we said Up Above
We are counting the Days and Hours and Minutes
until the Second Annual Worldwide Moment
We are so happy
That so many Bloggers have been spreading the Word
(Thank You!)
and
Will be Joining Hundreds around the World
to simultaneously share Pawsitive Energies
and broadcast them across the Universe
to Anyone and Everbuddy that they (we) wish
It's gonna be Amazing
and we hope we hear some Stories of the Moment
from some of your own Personal Experiences.
So
Once again

"Chaucer has been quietly dispensing instructions to us (such as how to announce his "retirement" publicly, if at all) and tidbits of wisdom to (his WFT sister and his lab sister) since I wrote to you last. He is back snoozing in his window spot this morning, but has actually been spending much time awake and looking around at us, eyebrows wriggling. Rather unusual for him. He is surely soaking in the sights of our beautiful World, and probably of the Bridge beckoning to him. We thought he might be waiting for the special International Moment on the 14th before making his journey, or to see a friend arriving on the 19th for Thanksgiving... but no, he will surely be scampering about and running running running well before then ..."

I will keep your friend, Chaucer and his family in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for posting this.xxoo Deborah
We can't wait for the worldwide moment! Thanks for organizing this event.
You both look very snazzy with your red bandanas! I like apples, too!
Your pal, Pip
I am very sorry about Chaucer ...his family his in our thoughts. Run free dear Chaucer.
We know that Chaucer was well prepared for and at peace with his Crossing over the Bridge. We will light a candle to shine the way. To those of his still on this side we extend paws and arms in love and consolation.
Of course, we will be here with our Community for the Very Special Moment even though we will be on the road returning from a very important mission. We have already made plans to stop and add our focus and strength at that precise moment.
Finally, thank you so much for the wonderful pictorial of our time together. Truly, we could have hugged and cuddled and shared well into the next day...and we SO look forward to picking up where we left off...although cozy and inside and filled with puppy treats!
What a simply lovely post. I tink you were so lucky to have met Siku, Quinn and family and they equally lucky to have met yourselves. What a treat. I think it just highlights so much how much love we have going on around the blogasphere Sorry news though that another lovely has crossed the bridge. I am sending love vibes to his family. I will be here at the time to shout out my message of love after the silence. Hugs GJ xx
So sorry to read about Chaucer - we will pop over and visit.
Loved your post as always - you know we are with you in the WW moment!
Much love
Martha and Bailey xxx
We were just looking for the link and realised we had read the post wrong!!!
Too many words for our dumb human!

WE are looking forward to sharing a special moment with our worldwide friends this weekend.
So very sad that Chaucer couldn't stay a little longer and join us but we will light a candle for him. Run free Chaucer and we send Terrier kisses to his hoomans.
Molly, Taffy and Monty
We are sooooo sorry about Chaucer, but we are soooooo glad that the two of you are able to experience the joys of just being dogs! Jake, we really enjoyed watching your brain work out ways to get the apple! And Fergi, we are happy to see White Dog's people loving on you! BTW, our mom has a copper tub like that! She loves it 'cause our dad gave it to her as a birthday present!
Aire-hugs,
Penny & Patches
Mitch would have loved to help you guys bob for apples! What fun!
Chaucer's hoomans are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love ya lots
Maggie and Mitch
Please give Chaucer's family our love and sincere condolances; we are very sad for them. We will join you in the WW movement.
We love the apple bobbing video and the pic collage.
You guys HAVE been busy. And still, you get your Moma to post for you.
We do not have your skill. But she has promised us she will make the post about our special time happen TODAY>
So be expecting panicked phone calls.
kisses
Gussie

Hi Sally,
I was there last year and I will be there on the 14th this year!! I don't have a clock or much of anything on my blog's side bar, b/c
of being on dial up there are so many blogs I can't get on!!! Yours has taken me over 3 hours to load.
I feel the saddness of those family's who have lost one of their babies!!! I will be one who has lost one probably soon. Having two very old animals!!!
But for now Bambi is doing good. She is trying to itch a lot more each day! So I have my work cut out for me! She gos to the vets tomorrow.
XXOO, Bambi & Fern
We are looking forward to sharing the worldwide moment on the 14th.
So very sorry to hear the sad news about Chaucer...our thoughts are with his family at this dreadfully sad time.

Oh Jake and Fergi...we just read of Chaucer going to the Bridge...we can almost hear him barking with joy to be able to run and jump with the exhuberance of puppyhood...
And we so feel for his family...dear boy, he was a one in a million...
We have our candle ready for the worldwide moment...
And we're sendin' Mumsie out for apples tomorrow...
We are most excited about that...
Kisses, kids,
The PA terrier Pack....
PS...hey, Mumsie showered yesterday and only when she was done washin' did she realized she'd done her entire ablutions with my dog shampoo...the bottle has a huge Sibe on in...
I think she's a bit addled in the head...
XXOO Lac
Sending lots of licks, kisses, and love to Chaucer's family.
The critters and myself are very much looking forward to the Worldwide Moment.
The Paws will spread energies the University can't contain!
Woofs,

I'd just love to do that bobbing for apples thing. Only problem is, Gail would eat them all first (you wouldn't believe how many apples she gets through). At least I get given the cores -yum yum!
Oh and you look so smart in your bandanas.
No wonder white dog Moma gave you lots of cuddles.
Toodle pip!
Bertie.
Hi, Fergi and Jake -
We are so sorry to read about Chaucer. Hopefully he has already met my (Herhsey's) older sister, Bosco.
We are also ready for the Second Annual Worldwide Moment.
Do you live near Fort Collins? Mama has a brother who lives in Fort Collins.
Have a good weekend.
Love -
Hershey and Kaci
Chaucer was so tired. He is young and running free now and that is OK. It's how things work.
The bobbing for apples sure looked like hard work. I don't think Fergi much liked it, did she? But you persisted!
Slobbers,
mango
