I saw the joy our little donkey Pino Blangiforti brought when I walked him to a neighbor's, carrying a home baked pie.
Making a pie is an act of love. It takes the earth's bounty and mixes it with the baker's heart and soul. So making a pie and giving it to someone is a simple pleasure that all can partake in. And aprons? Well, they are functional, and they make this old muddy farm girl feel...special. And you can carry eggs and feathers in the pockets. We encourage worldwide participation by asking readers to reach out in their own communities, bake one pie and deliver it to a chosen recipient. We welcome your stories.
Another senior dog I sponsored through Old Dog Haven, was this sweet little thing called "Bug". Well, my sponsorship was up this month, and I just can't resist that face, or name. So again, thanks to recent print sales, another small amount will be sent their way.
Bug was basically abandonned at a large shelter, with a dislocated hip, heart murmer, horrible teeth with oronasal fistulas which are being worked on. Still, Bug has a sunny personality, say the family that took him in for his forever home. We are so glad Bug found you!
Please consider donating to Old Dog Haven or other animal rescue organizations in your area.

What a lovely picture of this little guy. Is he smileing?
I would love to think so, bless his little paws.
I can never understand cruelty in any form.
This little fellow is one of the luckier ones. Wish we could save them all. x x x
There are so many. Such respect for the many people who try to help, like Old Dog Haven.
