Thank you Hawk for the shout out on Norman’s 13th Birthday. I had so many wonderful friends stop by and wish him the big 13! This was a very special milestone for Norman, we had a wonderful day packed full of hugs, kisses and many treats.

Don't worry Gman, I took care of it, it won't get you.

Ok, you need to put a disclaimer up when you are posting about the slithery evil ones. You sure gave me my dose of the willies for the week. Ugh. Do you have to worry about any poisonous snakes out there?

Sorry for the willies Amy, you enter my blog at your own risk! LOL We do not have to worry about poisonous snakes here in WI. I think we might have a rattler somewhere’s in the state but not by me. Nellie hates snakes!

Wow – well done! I know how easy it is for weight to just kind of creep up on you…and on your dogs. Keeping to a regular exercise routine is critical and walking is one of the best! Keep up the good work!
Thank you SlimDoggy, with the help of your app and PetsMove along with the other bloggers are my motivation to keep this up. It took over 10 years to pack on those pounds so the next 10 years I’m going to focus on keeping it off. 
Thank you all for your great comment on my weight loss, I am quite proud of it. Once you make up your mind you are going to do something it is easier to stick with it.

Thanks to Pooch Smooches and Peggy’s Pet Place for their new blog hop Give Cancer The Paw. The day that introduced this hop was the day I laid Norman to rest. He lost his battle with osteosarcoma. It was a great battle and he gave cancer the paw for 5 months! We will continue to give cancer the paw in his memory.

This picture was taken on our very first trip to Saskatchewan. It was Norman by my side and Nellie by John’s side. The birds were plentiful and the friendships that were made will never be forgotten.
I thank you all for stopping by and for all your lovely thoughts and prayers. Every word means the world to me and helps me in the healing process. You all have made a difference in the little things you have done and said. I may not have had a chance to respond to each and every one of you but know you have made a difference and one day I will respond and hope that I can be the friend to you all that you have been to me. Peace to all!
Norman will not be forgotten and his memory and pictures will live on in his Nothing But Saturday blog post each week. You not done seeing or hearing about him. He may be gone but he has left me a lifetime of memories!

The Sand Spring gang continues to add paws to their PetsMove diary. We continue to go pheasant hunting on my days off and on the weekends. Last week Gambler was the man and got rewarded for his work by getting a pheasant. The girls are wondering when it is their turn. Hunting is really keeping Gambler and Glory fit and hopefully helping Nellie loose some pounds.

    Great follow-up JoAnn, thank you for joining the hop.

    I’m so glad you are going to continue you’re “Nothing But Norman” posts, he was such a special boy. He will live on in the memories and photos you share.

    Sending you a GIANT CYBER HUG.

    Still so sorry about Norman, we just saw him on PetsMove senior pets, my sister Katie is there too. We think it is awesome that you will keep up his Saturday blog, that is a wonderful thing to do. He will never be forgotten, I know that because I know Mom never forgets her pets that have passed.

    I’m glad to hear that we will still be getting to see and hear about Norman. Tough week for you, and I admire that you’ve still been out here posting. I remember how difficult that was when we lost Moses, but keeping in touch with things and being busy can help too. So take all the time you need in responding to everyone, no one expects anything of you. I think it’s a great thing that you got to celebrate Norman’s 13th birthday too….very special for all of you.
