What does this mean for orders?

I will be open but with limited quantity of products between now and August 31.  If I sell out of a product I will not be making additional items till September.  If the website inventory is not correct (meaning it still says I have it in stock), I will send you an email to find out it you would like a full refund or if you would like me to send what items in your order I have in stock.

Also, please allow additional time to process your order.  Normal turn around time is 5-7 business days.  Please allow up to 10 business days for your order to process.  Most likely it will not take that long, but just in case!

I am a one women show, so the best way to contact me in via the contact form so I can write back at strange and odd hours.

Looks like in the Richmond Area you can pick the product up at Walmart.

I haven’t tried this product yet, but am looking forward to giving it a try.  With 7 animals and a baby on the way, products like this get frequent, if not daily, use.   Have I mention my love affair with the Spot Bot!?!

Thanks @Frugal Coupon Living for sharing this great deal!

My baby Gatsby is 1 year old — well about 1 year old.  Since he is comes from da’ streets we don’t know his exact date but it would be around now.  I can’t believe he is already one year.

You can read a few posts about this little guy that I have written over the past year on my personal blog here.

Sometimes it hard to write when you lose someone, not because you don’t miss them, but because you are relieved from the pain and suffering.  Brice had been sick for a year.  He hadn’t been himself.  I guess the life of a dog should be measured in something so simple- walks.  It had been a year since he could go for a walk.  It had been a year since he enjoyed chasing rocks at the river.  So sadly, not too many tears passed when it was time to say good-bye.

But then the relief subsides, and the house seems quite.  And then you realize that you no longer will share time with a good friend, even if it has been a long time since you really were able to share time together.

He was Scott’s dog, originally.  But he, and Eva, are the reason we are together.  He had an Aussie, and so did I.  I liked that he was an Aussie person.

Brice spent his time always at my feet.  If I was at my desk, he was right there.  If we were watching TV he was right there.  Eating dinner, right there under the table.

I always said he would give his life for me if someone broke in to our home.  He took his role as protector very seriously.

He wasn’t an obedient dog, and I think he concept of listening was limited, maybe like Buttercup he spoke Spanish.  But what he lacked in obedience he made up for in his desire to be with his humans.

I will miss going to the river with him.  He loved to stand in the water and chase rocks Scott would throw.  He has no desire to actually get the rock but just to run after where it hit the water.

I will miss his huffs and puffs when he would lean into you to be loved.

You were a good ol’ dog.  Thanks for sharing the journey with me.
