I sometimes feel guilty not working a normal paid job like a normal person …….

But I do love what I do in rescue and would like to think my life inspires people

Love this photo of Balmain (name will be changed to Jack) and Pike.

Well done Calley

Jack leaves for his forever home tomorrow …… Calley and Brad have done so much for Jack/Balmain…..and to think he was the last pup chosen.

Everyone should have a Tiny in their kitchen

I accidentally dropped an egg whilst making my kids breakfast. Before I could do anything, all cleaned up ( shell and all ) and she wanted more.

So I ‘dropped’ another one to reenact the moment and for the photo

Adoption update: Little gorgeous Mia

Rescued from Hawkesbury pound in 2010. I remember how shy and timid she was back then

Well done Marina for giving her a fantastic life with lots of furry friends to keep her company

Thanks for sharing these photos too

Btw. Mia was a surrender to the pound . Cannot remember the reason but totally their loss

This is the last photo I took of Belle this evening

As it is obvious I cannot sleep and have her on my mind

I pray she pulls through another night

I will be calling first thing in the morning – this waiting game is just horrible.

I look forward to the day I can breath easy knowing she is out of the woods

Another cow story……for anyone interested

I found this on my blog from when we first moved into this house and was my first real love/hate relationship with these bovines.

I hope you can read the text, basically one month into living here…. I had an in invited guest in my yard, just a few meters from my kitchen. Nov2009

My two dogs (Tilby and Murphy, may they RIP) were just as freaked out as I was :0

They were hiding in the laundry with the door wide open

Adoption update: Poppy from Blacktown pound, Jan2010

It’s hard to imagine she was a long termer, but found the best forever home she needed with Mel

Thanks Mel for giving her a good home – I will add her original photos

‘With it being three years next month that you introduced me to the love of my life I thought I’d share some update photos with you! This is the beautiful Poppy now..’

Maybe you will understand why these cows freak me out so much……

This afternoon, I had a very scary cow moment…. Yep that’s right, I was trapped in a dog run to get away from these cows. I could not get back into the house as there were at least 15 cows blocking my way…..

I had gone out to check up on the dogs and noticed Sophia walking calmly between the cows :0….. She had managed to eat through the very thin wooden wall of her enclosure (all fixed up now – these things hardly ever happen here) Lucky for the cows, for her and for me – there was no dramas.

So as I got her away from the cows, I found myself stuck between the house gate and the dog shed for about 10 minutes contemplating how I was going to get past them

I got all my courage together…. Tied a plastic bag onto a broom and flapped it towards them…..started a stamped

Sure got my adrenaline going. Never a dull moment at BDR
