Hi All - STUFF

I have missed posting, but between the doctors, the hospital, the upper respiratory crap, Dave heading back to Florida, having to get a repair estimate on my car, and sorting through puppy pictures between fevers, I have not been that coherent every day.   Thank you all so much for all of the cards and well wishes.  I really appreciate it. 

Then to top if off, there was a situation that I would love to go into here, but won't.  The other party has already been going around talking bad, so I am taking the high road.  Maybe generically later, but the stress of that hasn't helped me get any better.  And people wonder why I don't go to shows any more.  I have to deal with enough show crap right from here!

Dave is at the Brookville, FL shows.  The first stay was kind of stinky, but it has gotten better.  I will be posting results today.  

We have puppies available:  Some with great show potential, and a couple that are not our style and would be better suited to pet homes.  I will be posting photos, and if you are interested, may email me or contact Dave, or Jeanne Woods.  

Here is a teaser:

Sorry!

Hello everyone.  Sorry that I haven't posted anything for a while.  I had some crud that was going around and then when I felt good enough to do something, I did.  Then I was exhausted for the next 24 hours (about 3 or 4 times in a row).  So I will try to catch up. 

Basically it has been a stinky week at the dog show anyway.

Please Help Our Friends

Our dear friends Dan and Beverly McMullen, from Ferguson, MO need our help.  Their business, while not totally destroyed, needs to be relocated.  There is no assistance available to help them with what they need to do.  

Many of you know Dan and Beverly from the dog show circuit.  They have Giant Schnauzers and a Mini Bull. 

While not in their nature to ask for help, as they are usually the ones helping others, they have posted a request to GoFundMe.com
Please read their appeal and look into your hearts and pocket books to help them. 

Go to this page to donate:  http://www.gofundme.com/huiz2o

One building over. Thoughts and prayers for #Ferguson please.
Solo Insurance Services(TM)
   Hi, I'm Dan, a small busness owner in Ferguson, Missouri.  I started Solo Insurance March 1994 and have leased in the same building since I opened.  Solo is a locally-owned, family-run, small agency.  
   In August 2014 Solo was caught in the crossfire of tensions that put Ferguson on the world map.  Regardless of your thoughts on the situation, it's literally tearing down parts of West Florissant Avenue. It continues today, with our little part of West Florissant looking like a war zone you'd see in the news.  Buildings and businesses on both sides of us have been burned to the ground.  I've vowed to stay here but it's getting harder as it's very bad where I am.
   I have found property, in Ferguson, but need to raise funds to 'put down roots' [downpayment] to purchase the property.  Quite frankly, people are afraid to come to this address from the City and surrounding areas. Help get the good name of Ferguson back by investing in it. Let's start a new trend, revitalizing Ferguson!
  To survive here, I need an influx of money but none of other fund-raising you hear on radio/tv/internet seems to apply to me (I have been offered a few small loans however).  I have nothing to do with this issue, I'm just a guy that's trying to run a small business, who has successfully run it for 20 years.  I serve people who need car insurance, people of diverse racial/ethnic groups/creeds/beliefs.  It's car insurance for goodness sakes...required by law if you own a vehicle (so I shop rates to find the best I can for clients).
   Please support my goal to stay in Ferguson; it and I need help (even though I never thought I'd have to ask).  Thank you for supporting Ferguson and its small businesses.  We're all just folks trying to make an honest living by helping each other.
  
Dan McMullen

COMCAST !!!!

Gee Willickers!!!

For weeks now, heck maybe longer, we have been having internet issues.  Some days I have no interent for longer periods that we have a connection.  The last two weeks, when it does work, it is slower than dial-up used to be.  Finally called and they said "Well, yes it would be intermittent and slow, I see that your modem is outdated.  We recently upgraded in your area and you will need a new modem.  THANKS COMCAST FOR TELLING ME!"  I was thinking it was the computer, or the construction behind us, as that always has an adverse effect on the cable.  It would have been nice to send an email, or a snail mail and let us know that this was coming and we would need to go exchange our modem for a new model. 

Will drive the hour tomorrow, I guess, to do the exchange. 

Hopefully that will work.  Finding cofee shops with WIFI in our little podunk town is not the easiest thing. 

Keep your fingers crossed for me.
