Going OVERBOARD for Pets!

3 Sep

Thanks to Overboard creator Chip Dunham for issuing these very important pet care reminders.

I LOVE THIS CARTOON! It’s been on my refrigerator since it ran in my local paper on 07/31/07. Chip Dunham, the artist, periodically issues these reminders to pet owners who travel with their pets. Thanks, Chip!

I encourage you to check out his work… and if you like it, ask your local paper to carry OVERBOARD!

Seeking Cover – Where Does Your Dog Hide?

9 Jul

Hiding out from fireworks

On July 4th, Lula took up defensive positions on the couch plastered against my left hip.  Butters became the best foot warmer ever created.  But when friend, Julia, shared this photo of her basset, Barkley, I almost fell off the couch!  Yep, that’s Barkley hiding out from the fireworks in the dryer.  Where does your dog seek cover?
