<DIV>Good morning--just wanted to thank you all for your votes over this busy
weekend. Carolina Basset Hound Rescue has made a miraculous jump from 12th
to 9th place in just two days---the power of the DROOL--thanks to all and keep
on voting. Our Waddle is next weekend so we're excited about that and marching
in the Charleston SC Christmas Parade--last year we were 175 Bassets
strong. And we had 10 adoptions in the last ten days. Life is very
good--Jean</DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
