Adopt Blizzard a Pit Bull Dog in Missouri | #TuesdaysTails

This adorable pup is Blizzard.  He's an 8 month old Pit Bull Terrier dog who is now at the Humane Society of Missouri.

At only 8 months old, Blizzard is still really a puppy with lots of that fun, playful puppy dog energy.  He'll be a small to medium size dog when full grown. He's looking for a home that can help him with basic training and teach him how to play fetch. 

Blizzard loves people and would love someone of his own to snuggle with.  Take a look at his adoption video, then give the Humane Society of Missouri a call at 314-951-1562.  Blizzard is at their St Louis City animal shelter and his animal ID number is A580967.

An update:  Koda, the dog I featured last week has been adopted!

Since 1870, the Humane Society of Missouri has been dedicated to second chances.  They provide a safe and caring haven to animals - large and small - that have been abused, neglected or abandoned.  Their mission is to end the cycle of abuse and overpopulation, assist in creating lasting relations hips between people and animals, offer world-class veterinary care, plus offer pet obedience and behavior programs.  HSMO operates three animal shelters in the St Louis, Missouri, area, plus Longmeadow Rescue Ranch in Union, Missouri, for abused and neglected horses, cows, goats, chickens and other farm animals.

We are participating in the Tuesday's Tails blog hop hosted by Dogs N Pawz and Talking Dogs.  This is the blog hop that features shelter pets.  Find a pet at your local animal shelter or rescue and join us!  Please help spread the word about these beautiful animals via social media and let's find them forever homes! 

Talking Dogs is the official blog of For Love of a Dog Jewelry.

Random Thoughts and a Puppy Video

Since I'm not in the mood to stick to my list of things I am supposed to blog about...  I thought I'd share some random thoughts.

Our Mr. Chewy order arrived last night.  Such incredibly fast service that I'm really looking forward to writing my review!  Look for it early next week.  Jeffie and Rudy were particularly happy with the delivery because I ordered some new dog treats to try. 

Earlier this week we had another delivery:  our new video camera.  This promises to be fun, though it comes with the challenge of learning to edit video.  (Just what I needed... another challenge.)  At any rate, hopefully, soon we'll give you a laugh with our efforts.  In the meantime...

I was trolling for some new dog songs and dog music videos when I tripped over the video below.  I don't know about you, but some days I just need a "puppy fix" and this one really did the trick for me.  Can your heart resist melting while watching 3 1/2 weeks old Australian Shepherd puppies explore the outdoor world for the first time?  Mine couldn't! 

Dog Song Saturday: More Than a Feeling Video

It's Dog Song Saturday here at Talking Dogs!  Take a moment to relax and unwind from this past week and enjoy a dog song video about dogs.

Today's dog song is not a song originally written about dogs.  However, as a dog lover you already know that many love songs could easily be talking about our best friends.  This is definitely true of More Than A Feeling by Boston.  Here this song is a lovely compliment to a tribute video for "everyone who loves dogs."

Get your puppy fix and enjoy all kinds of dogs in all kinds of situations in this video created by samoyedbg and originally posted on Dogwork.  We love the message to give a dog a second chance and adopt a pet from an animal shelter.

Grab a dog.  Sit. Stay.  Relax and enjoy More Than a Feeling.  If you're in the mood, you can check out more dog songs, many of which are original songs about dogs, at Talking Dogs Dog Songs.   Then be sure to come back and scroll down below today's dog song video to explore some barking good dog blogs because today is a Pet Blogger Hop.

Our Yellow Lab Puppy Dog's First Year Video

I thought you might like to see Rudy's First Year and my first effort with Microsoft Movie Maker.   I should warn you that it is way too long and I need to better learn how to do the audio.  However, since I made this to please myself and share with friends and family...  I'm fairly well proud of it!

Hope you enjoy it!

Pit Bull Puppy Charlene Needs a Forever Home

Okay, I usually don't do two dogs that need adoption in the same day.  What can I tell you...  I'm a sucker for puppies.   Here's a puppy that needs a forever home.

Charlene is a brown and white Pit Bull Terrier.  She's already spayed and about 5 months old.  Affectionate, smart, and cute as she can be.  Charlene's been at the Humane Society of Missouri's St Louis City animal shelter since February 13, 2011 and needs a forever home.

If you have room in your life for a bundle of puppy energy and room in your heart for a bundle of Pit Bull love, then contact the HSMO at 314-951-1562 and ask about Charlene - animal ID # A504635

Fall in Love with a Great Pyrenees Dog
