As promised

Hi everyone.  Two things to say

Well, Three Things to say.

No wait, maybe just two.

Oh, lets just see.

 

First.....We are going to a new

Internet service soon.....if we

can get it in our area,

 

That is so exciting for us because

it promised faster Internet service.

 

Dial up is just a think of the past.....

Second:

WE promised to tell you more

about the cool vests that we tried on

last week.  So here is a link to

Canine Country Clubs Blog site

and it will tell you more about them. 
Plus there is a cool give-away prize.

Third

Well, I forgot number three

I mean, My Vickie forgot what

number three was. 

Anyway, hopefully we will

soon be able to get back up to speed

and read and comment on your

blogs, before you forget who we are.

 

Love

Bert

 

Oh Man, My Vickie....

What was number three?

 



A little fun about Bert

Bert got his picture in the Paper

 Hope you could download the article

Bert just loves the kids and I think he

is really enjoying the reading.

He especially enjoys the cuddles

each child gives him during and

after each session

 

FYI:  We are reading everyones

blog posts but it takes about

five minutes to download

the comment pages.

 

We don't know what is wrong

but just know, we are keeping up

 

Love

Bert and My Vickie

Oh Yes.  One more thing.  Thanks
to all of you who responded
to World Guys Dog "Nice"
and their financial needs due
to Nice's degenerative knee disease.

The surgery was successful and
in a few months the two
will be able to continue on their
Nationwide Diabetes Awareness Walk.

This One's For You

Perfection

Today was Perfect

Perfect in so many ways

For instance:

 

My Vickie learned today a

friends mother had passed away.

As she headed to the car

and got in, she noticed

something on the dash.

 The "Perfect" Cupcake

Gooses mom had left it for her

as a surprise and it couldn't have

come at a better time.

 Chocolate Cake

mint filling inside the cupcake

with a hard chocolate top

with more mint filling.

I heard her arteries screaming

but there was a smile on

her face when she ate it.

 I found the "Perfect" look

for me.  A nice red cap.

I had to take it off Pastor

Michelle's head, but

I think it looks better on me.

What do you think?

I mean, she looks OK

but I think I look better.

 And then when we was doing our

daily walk through at My Vickies

second job.  I found the "Perfect"

toy.  A purple pig.  "Perfect"

 Now you may think the above

"Perfect" is about Goose, who is

the "Perfect" friend, but it is also

about the picture in the background

of our mountain goats on the

top of the mountain on a

beautiful day.

"Perfection"

 For sweet Tanner who

is three days out from some

pretty hairy surgery

"Perfection" is a comfy bed

and My Vickies woolen robe

as a blanket.

 Today while the kids were

practicing their reading with me

at the school, this one

little fella held my paw in

his hand all the time he read.

"Perfection" again.  There is nothing

in the world that us dogs

want more than the loving

touch of a human.

And finally, as you can

see it was the "Perfect" blue

sky, dark and warm, bearing the

hope of warmer days to come.

 

Today was truly

"Perfect"

Today I got to go and see

some of my and My Vickie's

friends up in the little town

of Heber Utah.

 I have missed them so much

so it was great fun to go and spend the

day with them.  I was able to

run free on the ranch the whole day

except when they went to see

the baby foals.  Now I am not afraid of

horses at all, but they were afraid I might

make the babies nervous.

I didnt' mind.  I spent the time

with Erianne. 

This baby is about three weeks

old and My Vickie fell in love.

I thought we were going to have

to bring her home with us.

A new baby is expected soon

and we are hoping to be up there

shortly after.  The momma horse

was incredibly loving and sweet.

My Vickie really misses having horses

but we turned the pasture

into a play area for the pups that

come and stay with us so

horses are a thing of the past.

The family live at the base of

one of our favorite mountain ranges

That is Timpanogos in the back ground

boy wouldn't you love to wake up

to that view every morning.

Here I am getting to know momma horse.

She sniffs butts just like us dogs do

when we greet.  IT made me a little bit

nervous though.  I mean, look at her

if she decided to give me a love nip

she could break me in half.

 

My Vickie got bit in the butt once by a

horse.  It wasn't a pretty sight.

WE got on a four wheeler

machine and road around the ranch.

Did you know, if My Vickie

should die, I get to come and live

here.  Yep, I could be a ranch dog

how cool would that be.

(But that isn't going to happen)

Right?

Goose and I have been modeling

a new kind of vest that is going

to be a new sensation.  It is made especially

for dogs to help with muscle and health

issues and a lot of other things.

I am not completely sure what

it all does, but My Vickie is going

to find more out about it

and let you all know.

So it has been a long couple

of days so I am off to sleep

Tomorrow I get to go visit my

friend Ryan who is in the

hospital.  I'll let him know

how all of you are wishing him

well.  Have a happy

and beautiful Sunday my friends

 

Bert



The joy of children

 I love kids.  Just love them.

And this week I have been

blessed to be with Many Children

 It makes me jump for joy. 

This week I visited my new

friend who is staying at the Hospital

after being burned over 33 percent of his

little body.  He had been told I was coming

so when I got there he greeted me with

his first smile of the day.

 

He has a long recoup period

so if you are prayin folks,

would you send a prayer up

for my Boy Ryan.

 We also got to hike up to

my favorite place in the world

to do demonstrations.

It is a place where school kids

get to go to spend the day

learning about the wilderness.

 

I come up and teach them how to stay

Safe if they are in the wilderness.

 Miss Sophie came with me this

time and we had about 150

kids to play with for the day.

Now how cool is that?

 Some of the best times we have

on these demos is the hike up to where

we do the demo and the hike back

down after we are through

I was excited to show Miss Sophie

all the fun we can have when she

comes with me. 

 

Today I went and played with more

kids and adults at the hospital

and now, I am very tired 

 My buddy Goose gave me this

cool stuffed doggy (this is his head)

and I now have a great place

to lay my head at the end of a big

fun week.

 

So below, for those of you whol like to

watch video's is a short film

on Sophie and my trip hiking

up to the Center where the kids are

and playing our way back home.

 

Plus a bunch of kids.

I love kids.

Wordless Wednesday

Feel Good Friday

It is Feel Good Sunday

for us.  And after a great

day like yesterday, then to

have a beautiful blue sky

today....how could you ask for more

 

We hope you enjoy the video

and if you'll note, even our

little buddy Tanner, (our foster child)

came out and wandered around

with all of us.

Allred just had to get himself in this post

 

We took him to the doctor after

his jaunt in the sun and we will

tell you about that on our next post.

Willa and Josie are getting to be friends

 

Have an Awesome day my friends

It is Sunday....A day for love and

worship and sharing. 
What do you do on Sunday. 

(We are going to the big
hospital in Salt Lake

to visit a little boy in the burn unit

from our class of students that I

go to, where they read to me.

 

I am so lucky

See Beautiful Friday

 

See Beautiful is a once a month Blog Hop,

every 2nd Friday of the month.
Simply create a blog post

that made your day,

week, and/or month …
inspiring you in Seeing Beauty.
Blog Hop inspired by

http://www.seebeautiful.com

 

Our See Beautiful Friday is a focus

on our Sweet Bessie, a foster sister

to the famous James Dean

 

Bessie, came to their family

after facing "the last days"

Her previous family no

longer wanted her and had turned

her over to the shelter for euthanize.

 She could barely walk

 as her legs and feet

are so deformed and arthritic.

 

With lots of love, some incredible

veterinary care and a fuller lifestyle

Miss Bessie is moving around on her

little crippled legs with much less pain

and more joy than she has known

for years.  Seeing her sweet spirit

enjoying her last years in more

happiness than she has ever known

is a "See Beautiful" moment

for us 6 days a week.

 

Those little crooked legs,

that one blue eye,

the chubby little basset body.

 

BEAUTIFUL

 

Three Things

First:

Apparently changing my blog name

has not helped with our ending up in Spam.

 

So I guess we are just gonna have

to be the "Nasty" blog.

But we hope you will still

check your spam for comments.

 

Second:

We just couldn't help ourselves

at work today.  When My

Vickie was shopping

last week, she saw this headgear

that screamed out

GOOSE.

 

So she bought it and

today we made Goose Wear it.

Check this out for a Grin time.

 

Pretty Funny, isn't he.

 

And Third:

 

We have been following

the coolest Guy and his dog

named Nice, as they walk

across the country

to bring attention

to the fight against diabetes.

CLICK HERE

 

Nice is in trouble and they

can use our help.

Check out their blog if you

get a minute.  Be sure to

read the side bar to

get a better idea of his efforts

in awareness.

World Guy and Nice

 

From here, I leave it to you.

 

Love

Bert

Introductions

Hey Everyone, so glad you found me. 

This will be my first post on the new site. 

If you came over from fourleggedviews.blogspot.com

you know that I had to start a new

blog because Blogger thinks "Fourleggedviews"

sounds like a porn site.

 

Can you believe it.   Me... Bert.... Porn.

 

IT took a while but thanks to Allreds love

Miss Nellie, we figured out why

we end up in so many Spam folders.



Next picture is Abby.  My Vickie found

her running up the freeway in rush hour

traffic.  IT took some doing but with the

help of the highway patrol My Vickie

roped her like a run-a-way calf,

brought her home

and she has been ruling the roost ever since.

 Believe it or not, besides Allred, we have

a little kitty who also learned how to use the

doggy door and moved into our attic.

She never comes down and this was

one of few sightings.

 Of course we have Willa (little one on the left)

she was found by Goose's mom, locked

in a crate sitting out in the hot sun in front of

our place.   With out Michelle noticing her

she might have died from exposure.

 

And Scrappy, my best buddy, also found

wandering the streets

There is little Taz. (short for Tazmanian

devil) (and with good reason) 

who visits us a few times a week

Sure is a cute sleeper isn't he.

 Trever came to stay with us

while his human gets better after

she broke her femur and was hospitalized

for a really long time.

Trever is very old, has trouble holding

his plumbing but, we have a tile floor

so we mop a lot now.

 Of course you all know my buddy

Goose  who is like the coolest buddy

ever, well except for Murphy.  They both

are like my best ever friends.

This is Carley, she comes

a few times a week to play

at our place too.

And James Dean who is like

the most famous dog I know.  He is

just about everybody's favorite friend

And that is Josie next to James Dean

She was found on the 24th of July

sitting on a boat dock, looking like she was

thinking about giving up and jumping in

She was so scared.

 Some more of my friends who

come and play at the kennel, like

the beautiful Lillie

The shy but handsome Harley

 The strong and silent Gus

 And then there are my walking

buddies.  Little Miss Sophie and Gigi

Back at the kennel our overnight

guests like Marilyn

 And doesn't this one look like

My Vickie's moms dog KC?

 Bonnie, who is James Deans sister

 Marilyn's sis Monroe

 well, we wont always have this many

pictures, you can thank your

lucky stars for that

but we are glad you have found us

and hope you will come back

 

Love

Bert
