Bill Arnold's Daily Straydog Log

SUNDAY JUNE 27 2004

NOON UPDATE

June newsletter is at the printer

and not a moment too soon!

We've got only enough cash

in the bank for another week,

and our only Straydog credit card

is almost maxed out!

Our June 2004 Straydog Newsletter is finally at the printer

     Most of this June 2004 Newsletter comes from the June 1, 2004 Straydog Update, concerning the first anniversary of Pat Arnold's death, and that's why it took so long to prepare and release to print. Every time I tried to work on the newsletter, I would have to stop after a short while and go work on something else. I finally got it finished and to the printer, my former employer of 25 years, who graciously contributes to Straydog all our printing needs.

     If you get a chance before you receive your black and white copy in the mail, please read our online color version via the following links:

(1) June Newsletter, First 4-Pager

(2) June Newsletter, Second 4-Pager

(3) June Newsletter, a Front & Back, 2-Page Letter

     We will be very grateful for any early contributions! Please send checks to:

Straydog Inc., P.O. Box 1465, Gun Barrel City, Texas 75147

     Thanks so much to all of you supporters who continue to make it possible for Straydog to stay alive and keep going!

 

Update on Blackie

     Randy Hopkins, our overnight man, reported this morning that Blackie coughed much less during the night and had some appetite this morning, finishing half of his breakfast. His meds must be kicking in.

Update on Parvo Puppy Summer

     This little girl is still holding her own. You can tell by looking at her that she's sick, but we keep forcing down plenty of liquids (with an oral syringe), and she has a small appetite and wags her tail a little. Her last bowel movement early this morning was between runny and firm. Please keep praying for Puppy Summer's full recovery. Summer's three sisters are no longer showing any Parvo symptoms.

Report on yesterday's Adoption Day

     No adoptions but lots of photos:

Smoky, one of Angie's dogs who join our group for Adoption Day, stands up for a visitor.

The PetsMart manager asked us to keep to one side of our aisle today, and Pat Seward is our "hall monitor."
