<div>A belated happy birthday to Countess Penny, Jack, and Stanley. Hope it was happy and you got lots of belly rubs and treats to celebrate your special day.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Drool for Elmo -- we're so sorry he was attacked, and hope he's on the mend soon.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Heart healing drool to Mike and Hanni on Cameo's trip to the bridge. Dub-Dub, my "basset cat" will be there to welcome him and show him around.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Karen Johnson is very much in my prayers. I hope she finds a good home for her babies so she can spend her final days knowing they will be well cared for. I got my Molly that way; my petsitter knew a lady who did rescue whose sister was in hospice and wanted to know that her dogs had good homes. Molly was her only basset, and I'm so glad she joined our family and just as glad that we were able to give her former person peace of mind.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Drool for Dulcie, and for Liz. Dulcie is Liz's heart dog, and we all know the pain of having a baby come close to the end of their time on earth. I hope what time you have left is good time.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Drool for Cassie -- how is she doing?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Drool for Harry and Kroozer. I'm sorry Harry's lump was cancer and not a cyst, but the prognosis sounds good.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Welcome Annabelle and Dottie, and congratulations Laurie, Jeff, and Max on your new additions!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We're sending "settling in" drool for Boscoe, and "sorry it is cancer" drool for Louie.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Congratulations to Synthia on adding Dickens to her family -- that boy is lucky to have you.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Drool for Buford -- I'm so sorry Heidi, I know you've been struggling with his stomach issues terribly. I have no experience or advice with it, and can only send good wishes.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Drool for Boss and his bloat, and for Brudder Elwood and his irritable bowel. Brudder, I've never been able to do the holiday card exchange because my work is busy around the holidays, and this year we don't even have a Christmas twig! With the move we're not putting up a tree this year (but do have Auntie Cookie and the Tana girl's beautimous wreath on our front door).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Welcome to Lola, and congratulations Sherrilyn on your new family member.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hearthealing drool to Melissa and Brian on the loss of your beloved Basil -- you are in my thoughts.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And finally we were thrilled to see King Bob's posting today -- he sounds like he's doing much better, and I bet you will surprise your Mom and walk by Christmas! Laura (Geoffrey, Molly, Henry, Rosebud, Lisa (ATB), Dub-Dub (ATB))</div>
