And it means my adoption anniversary day is near.
New Year's Day
Yay
On January 1, 2008 my pet parents Carol and Paul adopted me from North Shore Animal League. I am what is called a rescue and a mutt-i-gree.
I have lived with them for 8 years.
1-I bet you have viewed the ubiquitous ASPCA video. You know it, the one with the shivering chained dogs beseeching us for help while "Silent Night" echoes in the background.
Happy New Year
Liam

The past week Mom has been receiving donation requests from several of her animal organizations. "Last chance for a donation!" Meaning a tax deductible gift- one may include on your income tax filing for 2015. And save you some money while you are saving the animals. Win, Win...
Here are our organizations

We know when it starts it must be muted. Mom cannot bear it. Daddy Paul reminds us the dogs in the video are actors and are not hungry, cold and abused. If so, they deserve Golden Globes. Mom's opinion is that they are real neglected dogs photographed by animal rights activists to illustrate their situation.

I am featured on the Mutt-i-gree Gallery Wall. Mom wrote about me and it is on the site with my photo. Here is her post.
I retired in December 2007 and visited North Shore on January 1, 2008 with the intention of adopting my first dog. We arrived midday and by that time most puppies were in process of being adopted. I was a bit anxious we would leave empty handed but in the last room there was a puppy not yet claimed. I had my first dog. I named him Liam after the actor Liam Neeson. I was told he had been rescued from Tennessee, was about 5 months old and might be a basset hound/lab mix. Later on DNA testing showed him to be four dogs in one, equal parts beagle, dachshund, dalmatian and Irish setter. Imagine! Liam has enlarged my world and enhanced my life. I had no idea being a pet parent would teach me how to really love.
Adopt.
Rescue.
Save a life.
Liam saved mine.
3-My friend Wrangler's school, GuidingEyes for the Blind. Wrangler is the Today Show Puppy who joined the crew last January and has been in training to be a guide dog. We follow him on Instagram, FB, Twitter. Or every morning on TV.
