Satellite Adoption Center

Posted on July 28, 2011 by BrassyDel

No, not that kind! Yes, I’d love to adopt a geosynchronous satellite, too, but I don’t think you can. Yet. While we’re waiting, though, you can totes adopt a dog or a cat from the Humane Society of Boulder Valley at their new satellite adoption center in Westminster! The local Petsmart, which is actually where my former roommate adopted her…

Dulce Means Sweet

Posted on July 6, 2011 by BrassyDel

Dulce is a sweet black lab and sheperd mix, rescued from a hoarding case in Arizona. 9 years old, she is calm, gentle, and a bit of a heart-stealer. Dulce is in a foster home right now and can be adopted through the Humane Society of Boulder Valley – the same place our lovely Tank and Matti came from! This…

Baby Steps

Posted on June 20, 2011 by BrassyDel

This clip is from March or so, shortly after Pixie finally started letting go of her physical supports and toddling around on her own. Someday she’ll walk like a big girl, and she walks straighter and more balanced every day, but for now I am enjoying that silly little toddle. I’m trying to teach her to remark, “Doot, doot! I’m…

Both Tank and Matti were adopted from the Humane Society of Boulder Valley, which is an awesome local shelter. I even volunteered there for a few months after adopting Matti while I was pregnant with Pixie. I love, love, LOVE these guys! The behaviourist we are working with for Tank is also from HSBV, and she’s great. Anyway, one of…

Tank’s Very Best Play Date EVAR

Posted on March 22, 2010 by BrassyDel

The Hubbles was out of town earlier this month, so Tank and Matti were invited up for a playdate with their Golden Retriever pal, Loki. I packed up the baby and both dogs, and off we went! My brother-in-law recently received a second hand playset and is in the process of putting it up. Currently, the slide is resting on…

Damien: the Feline Retrospective

Posted on January 12, 2010 by BrassyDel

August 9th, 2001: My boyfriend and I walked into the Human Society of Boulder Valley. Shortly thereafter, we left with a cardboard box containing what we would soon learn was the Best Cat Ever. Sure, he had a tooth rotting in his mouth and was unable to eat dry food, but that was quickly remedied at the Vet’s. When we…

My Little Miracle is Sitting on My Bladder

Posted on March 29, 2009 by BrassyDel

Being pregnant means a lot of changes and new experiences. At 7 months now, I’m feeling rather… ungainly. For example, walking both dogs at once is certainly not as easy as it used to be. Tank weighs about 75 pounds and is a certified Muscle-Butt. Matti is pushing 80 pounds these days, and he’s not as strong as Tank but…

Blizzard ’09

Posted on March 26, 2009 by BrassyDel

Today we’re having a blizzard. And why not? It was in the 70’s last week and it was 55 F yesterday. There was apparently a light dusting at around 7am when the hubby went in to work, and by 10am they were sending everyone home. It took him 4 hours to make what is normally a 25 minute commute. The…
