Help Skeletor

Master Teal'c — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:10:25 +0000

We just received a comment from Pibble and when we went to her bloggie to say hello we found Skeletors bloggie. You gotta have a look at this gorgeous dog!!! He has had such a hard time before he found his new home but he looks like a really happy dog that just wants to enjoy his life and play. As most of our totally misunderstood kind!!!!

Skeletor is slowly putting weight on but still needs vet treatment as they have just discovered heartworm

There is a LINK on his page where you can donate money to help him and any excess donations received will go to Pit Bull Rescue Central. (www.pbrc.net) So me and my mom just donated and hope it helps Skeletor or other doggies to get healthy and find new families.

Finally – Mommy home but daddy gone…

Master Teal'c — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:42:22 +0000

Finally! I have her back! My mom arrived yesterday morning and guess what – we had a surprise for her!!! I’m so proud of my self that I didn’t tell her and no one else did either. Daddy picked her up from the airport and she really didn’t expect it because she thought he was already in Singapore. When they came home I was soooooooooooooo happy!!! I finally had both of my hoomans back! Even if it was only for 6 hours, better than nothing I say. So now daddy is gone again and hey, Kasha – I have no bloody idea what could possibly be so exciting about that Singapore-place!
Anyway – time for some quality mom-dog-time!

Me, waiting under the table while my hoomans have breakfast after a long walk- I don't look up begging because it is pointless with my mom

Me cleaning the garden with mom n dad. Something daddy forgot and was forced to fit into the 6 hours.

Me, relaxed!

Me, having a nap at mom's legs.

Ahhhh - mommy back!!!

Me, moody after remembering how long she left me!

If I had 2 hands I would have bought some flowers as well. But I think my mom was happy with the slobbers!

No – I don’t want to talk to you!

My mom still isn’t home and daddy has to leave again. I think my mom wanted to tell me that she will be home soon but I have decided not to talk to her anymore. PAH! And you know what – daddy has started packing again. Stupid, stupid, stupid! They don’t even see each other. While mom is in her flying machine from Singapore to Sydney my day is in his flying machine from Sydney to Singapore – all for my bones which I believe still live in the fridge-thingy… Ok, fine, whatever. I’m moody now. Goodbye. PAH. BÄH!

Dad is home!

Master Teal'c — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:39:48 +0000

Soo happy! Last night my dad appeared out of nowhere. I was so happy to see him I went a bit crazy for a while.

My temp daddy came over and brought Max and Bessie as well! So while we played they sat and drank some of that stuff that smells real good. I think it’s called beer?

After a while I remembered that my daddy had left me for so long so I got in a mood and went to sleep. That’ll teach him!

This morning my daddy was up very early, it was still dark! I don’t think he went to sleep at all. I forgave him this morning after we went for a strange walk in the park where we didn’t actually walk at all but spent all the time running around. Great fun!

My dad said something about getting fit but I think I’m in great shape already??

My friend Max - he's quite big!

Germany vs OZ part 1

Master Teal'c — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 19:38:17 +0000

Hello everyone!!! I know I haven’t been visiting all your bloggies lately but my mom is too far away and my dad is not the blogger kind of hooman and both of them are very protective over their Mac’s. They say my paws are too big to type! PAH.

Anyway – here I am and I just got an e-mail. Again featuring that Vizla girl (I think Dennis thinks she is very hot!) in the forest. My mom keeps telling me how cool German forests are. You can take your dogs there off leash all the time and they are big. Oh how much fun that would be running around the trees and having some fun playing hide and seek with my hoomans. I mean I love the ocean and the doggy beaches in OZ but a big forest sounds rather tempting to me. In Australia they are not so nice to us doggies. We don’t seem as much part of the family as the German dogs. Over there you can take your dog almost everywhere. I mean, how cool would that be? I could even go shopping with my mom (well except from supermarkets of course)… But I’m here and she is over there and I can’t be there because I couldn’t go back so I’ll have to sit and wait and hope that my mom comes home at some point…

So here are a few more pics from my mom being overseas with a strange dog…

Alpha making strange faces!

That is what happens in the snow?!

That looks like fun!

WTF?! BIG BLACK BOAR! WOULD HAVE SCARED ME SHITLESS!

As Mango said - she has springs!!!

CUTE!

Isn't that cold?!

Ok, I’m actually a happy abandoned dog!

Master Teal'c — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 19:54:12 +0000

My mom seems to know what she is doing, for my dad who is from South Africa it was a first and I guess you can leave pawesome pee-mails on this white man! He doesn't look as he could run?!

Hi everyone thanks for all your support!!!! I’m glad that I have so many friends.

I don’t think my hoomans have actually left me, I think they come back and I think they will bring pressies as well!!!! But hey Kasha – if you wanna box some of that white stuff, that would be pawsome!!!! Maybe that will make them come home earlier?! I dunno why they (esp. my mom) like that white stuff so much but I think she put 2 of those wooden things under her feet to go downhill very fast – another thing I don’t get!

But before all my bloggie friends think that they really abandoned me I should probably set it straight – I’m very, very well looked after!!!! Honestly! I mean I miss my hoomans badly but at the moment I get to spend time with my Bull Mastiff girlfriend, Bessie, 24/7!!!! (Remember her?!) That is just incredibly pawesome… And she and her hooman live just across the road so I can keep an eye on my house just in case someone comes home. Carina and Dash came to visit me and the white box in Bessies home seems to produce fresh turkey necks non stop!!!!

Bottom line – I’m a happy abandoned dog !

My hoomans are in Germany by the way. That is where my mom is from and my dad came and visit her on his way around the world. He went to America and to Europe and now he is in Asia and hopefully soon back in Australia. Stupid work! WOOF!

My mom doing strange things...

Me and my temp-daddy...

Me and Bessie having fun!

PS: MOMMY, DADDY I MISS YOU! COME BACK SOON!!!!

My hoomans have deserted me!

Master Teal'c — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 10:49:35 +0000

Hiya – Master Teal’c here!!! My dear blog readers, I guess you have been wondering why I haven’t posted anything lately? I hope you have been wondering because I couldn’t live with the fact that my bloggy friends have deserted me as well… It all started when my mom got her bags out. 2 hours later she was gone My parents usually pack last minute because of me as I get really stressed out when I see bags and I try to sit in them… Anyway – she left and I had a couple of days only with my daddy. That was fun! Sitting on the sofa, begging, sitting in the kitchen etc. My girlfriends came over and we had looooong walkies. But then – MORE BAGS!!!! 2 hours later daddy was gone too. They both said something about working (the earning my bones thing again) but guess what? They are betraying me!!! I looked over Carinas (Dash’s mom) shoulder the other day when she was checking her e-mails and what must I see??? MY HOOMANS WITH ANOTHER DOG IN A FOREST WITH HEAPS OF THE WHITE STUFF I HAVE NEVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! I dunno – they are in far away land now and my mom loves the white stuff… What if they never come back?!?!

Daddy talking to the strange dog!

She sits the same way in the car I do...

And she seems to be a dancer...

SHOCKING!!!!

But cute!

I wanna be there as well!!!

Wordless Wednesday on, ähm – Thursday…

My mom took the picture when she went skydiving – it was the “watch-the-scared-wannabe-skydivers” dog…

Forget flowers this Valentine’s, help the Moon Bears!

Master Teal'c — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 23:03:06 +0000

Hello everyone! It is Valentines Day soon – that is the day when hoomans that love each other give flowers to each other… Well, at least that is how I understand it. Now, I’m a doggy and I do not need no flowers and there are other animals that don’t need flowers either but could do with a bunch of green stuff!
Me and my hoomans support a organization called ANIMALS ASIA FOUNDATION and there we have fallen in love with the Moon Bears. That means I have an adoptive sister called Heather and she and her brothers and sisters need food.
So let’s all convince our hoomans not to buy flowers for Valentines Day but a bunch of browse for the bears – how does that sound? It is a one off thing for AD 25 and will make a bear very happy!!!!!!
What better way to send your love than by helping the bears and spreading the word about their plight?
You can download a gorgeous e-card explaining the gift that you can send on to your loved one or print out and personalise more. So if you still need a last-minute gift, instead of sending flowers or chocolates ……. say it with browse!

Please click here to help the moon bears!

Thanks and lots of slobbers Teal’c

PS: Feel free to post the link on your own doggy-blogs!

E-Mail from Animals Asia Founder and CEO: Jill Robinson

Don’t be left in the doghouse this Valentine’s Day – there’s still time to surprise your loved one with an extra-special gift with meaning. Buy a bunch of browse for the bears and give it on behalf of your loved one! And you can organise it right away, with just a few clicks.

Browse is a big part of the rescued bears’ rehabilitation and ongoing enrichment programme. Bunches of banana leaves, bamboo shoots, slender pine, spruce, fir and willow branches, straw and native grasses are just some of the ever-changing selection of browse we spread around their dens and outdoor enclosures.

Each morning, huge bunches of browse arrive at our sanctuaries in China and Vietnam. The daily browse is like a breath of fresh air, piled high on the back of tricycles peddled in from nearby villages, where locals gather or grow the plants to sell to us. For some, this is their only income.

Sadly the bears rescued from bile farms could never survive in the wild – browse gives them a precious taste of the forests. As soon as their noses start to twitch, it’s easy to see how much they love it…. they chew it, roll in it, and sniff the different aromas. And all this helps to keep their recovering minds and bodies active.

So please, this Valentine’s Day, think of the bears. Your donation of $25 will buy them a BIG Bunch of Browse, or for $50 you can give them an even bigger BEAR-SIZE Bunch of Browse (to them, the equivalent of a dozen red roses!).

You can download a gorgeous e-card explaining the gift that you can send on to your loved one or print out and personalise more. So if you still need a last-minute gift, instead of sending flowers or chocolates ……. say it with browse!

What better way to send your love than by helping the bears and spreading the word about their plight? Thanks as always and Happy Valentine’s!

Bear hugs,

Jill
