Mom and Dad left me yesterday BUT they returned with the most wonderful
aroma all over them!!! What is this I'm sniffing you ask? Well it is a
bow made of hair from my absolutely most favorite (oops my heart skipped a beat)
RED Head RAIDER. Raider is the most manly smelling man dog..I do wish this was a scratch and sniff post. I wonder what brand of aftershave Raider uses?
So I bet you are all wondering how Mom got this? A few weeks ago Mom found out that
Raider and his mom and dad would be at a KOA campground about 1 hour from Raleigh on April 30-May 2...so they arranged a meet and greet then they all went to lunch. Raider's Mom
gave him a good grooming yesterday and then made me a bow out of Raider's beautiful red fur.
In case you can't tell...I love it.
Mom bought Raider a doggie toy last week but before she home, she let me rub my face all over it. Below is a picure of Raider enjoying the c(at)mail I sent him. Mom was so happy he liked the toy. It also had a squeak in it.
Here is another picture of my Raider with his mom, Kathy and Dad, Grant.That is what I'm calling him now my Raider
Below is a picture of (l to r)Dad, Mr. Grant and Miss Kathy....Mom said they are absolutely hostesses with the mostest!!
Can you believe they drove all the way to NC from California...with lots of stops along the way.Mom met Miss Kathy on an Alaskan website several years ago and they have been
emailing daily every since!!! Mom said it was so much fun to finally meet Kathy and Grant
Below is a picture of (l to r) Dad, Mom and Kathy!!!!
Thanks for letting us share this very SPECIAL set of pictures.Kathy, Grant and Raider...thank you for a lovely Sunday afternoon,
Safe travels and remember you are sightseeing for all of 'us' (mom) who are stuck in an office.
Big Hug

That Raider bow is great! Maybe we should do that to Monty's furs! The furs on his tail gets 6 inches long! We thinks you were so good to give Raider your smell! And we like the pictures of the humans!!
ReplyDeleteJust a note to say Hi. I've been away from blogging for a while. One of my beloved cats was diagnosed with a tumor back in February. So I got away from blogging in order to spend as much time with him as possible, and to help him thrive for as long as possible. Sadly, we lost him on April 28. I hope you and Madi are doing well. I look forward to getting caught up on your posts in the near future.
ReplyDeleteOh Madi! I need about 1200 of those bows to keep me warm. What a terrific idea from Raider's mom. Girl, you get around! Raider, Riley, Remington...well, I just noticed you have a thing for guys with names beginning with R.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a great time at date night. Mom and I had fun putting it all together. We haven't visited much since then cuz we needed a little break. I miss seeing you and your adventures. And, I haven't told you this but that bonnet on you is absolutely magnificent!
Snuggles,
