Stories from Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

 Hi everyone, It's me Mia.

Sorry we haven't been here in a couple of weeks.  Ms. Charlene is still trying to find a job and things are pretty hectic around here.
Ms. Charlene says it is by the grace of God that we are all still doing well and have food on the table. She says we all must have a guardian angel watching out for us.





We all don't really know what that means, but it must
mean something special because we are all pretty
happy and healthy critters here at Black Dog Rescue
Ranch.


Some really nice people are going to help us help Smokey get treatments for his sore leg and Ms. Charlene says that is a miracle all on its own right there! We are very grateful to those who reach out to help us give others a second chance at happiness!

Well I better go for now, don't forget to order a copy of our book, "Stories from Black Dog Ranch".  All proceeds go to support our rescue ranch! http://www.blackdogrescueranch.com/

Talk more soon,
Mia

Stories from Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang


Hi everyone. It's me Mia.

 The weather's finally cooled off around here and we have been enjoying just laying around in the yard.
Teddie thinks he is as pretty as this flower bush so he picked that spot for Ms. Charlene to take his picture! We all think Teddie is just a silly boy!
Ms. Charlene has been enjoying the weather too because she has got to go on a few trail rides lately and that always makes her happy.
We really don't see what the big deal is about those horses, but if it makes Ms. Charlene happy then we're happy.

Stories From Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hey everyone, It's me Mia. 

Sorry it's been a couple of weeks since I've been here, but Ms. Charlene has been busy looking for work and I can't type with my big fuzzy paws!

Things are about the same. It's still really hot here at the ranch and we are all trying to take it easy and stay cool. 
Teddie and Mickey take it easy everyday so I guess it's not really anything new for them. Ms. Charlene has been looking for a job since she got laid off so if anyone needs a good book, please order one because it's the only way to support the ranch right now. 
We are keeping the faith though and looking for better times ahead for us here at Black Dog Rescue Ranch.
Please remember to order a book, http://www.blackdogrescueranch.com/

Stories From Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang


Hi everyone. It's me Mia.
Sorry I haven't been here in a week or two. We have been busy here at the ranch and Ms. Charlene has been going to the city to work a little.
It is still really hot down here on the farm, but Teddie and Mickey don't seem to mind to much.  All they want to do is play play play. Silly boys!

Ms. Charlene said that the Central States Horseman Magazine did an article on us and our book so if you get the chance, pick up a copy and check out the story they did on us. She said they put a lot of really good pictures of us in there too!
The hores have been getting sprayed off with the garden hose each evening.  Ms. Charlene says it's a good way of cooling them down and they don't seem to mind it at all. They stand in line waiting for their turn to get sprinkled.  It's funny to watch them close their eyes and turn their ears sideways!  I guess horses are silly too.

Stories From Black Dog Rescue Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi everyone. It's me Mia.

Well it is still really hot, but we have been getting some storms down here at the ranch.

Mickey is afraid of storms so when it thunders he runs and hides under his special hiding place in the garage.  Ms. Charlene told us not to make fun of him because we all have little things about ourselves that make us different and it's a much more interesting world to have some differences.
The heat and the storms
don't seem to affect Betty too much.
As long as she has her chew bones she's happy. This one is so big she had to take a break and rest after dragging it all over the farm trying to make sure nobody else got it.
Ms. Charlene says she will be glad when it does cool off so she can get back to riding the horses. She says that Fall is just around the corner and she is looking forward to going on some great trail rides with great scenery like the one here!

Well I better go for now, don't forget to stop by our website and pick up a copy of our book, "Stories from Black Dog Ranch".  Proceeds from book sales go to support our Rescue Ranch and we donate to Children's Reading Programs too!

Stories from Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi everyone.  It's me Mia.

Things are going great here at the ranch.  Lot's of new people coming out to visit and some old friends too! 

Ms. Charlene tried some new food out on us and I have to say it was pretty tasty!


FRIED GREEN TOMATOES!  She said there is a movie named that too and it is her all time favorite movie ever!
It is all about real love and friendship and she says that is the most important thing in life!
Most people don't seem to think that nowadays and they're more worried about what others think or what they don't have.  Ms. Charlene says everything but true love and friendship turns to dust anyway. 
Seems to me that most folks are letting the best things in life pass them by.......

Like a good game of "get my belly" with your brothers and sisters in the green grass of our yard, or the sound of Ms. Charlene calling us up to the front porch for suppertime, the view we have from our front porch at the end of a summer's day.
Ms. Charlene says sitting on the tailgate of the farm's pick-up truck eating a candy bar with your best friend too. Those are just a few of the things that really matter in life.
Oh, and the smell of Fried Green Tomatoes.....

Well better go for now. Talk more soon,
Mia

Stories From Black Dog Ranch - Mia and the Gang

Hi everyone, it's me Mia.

Another hot week here at the ranch.  We have been keeping cool by digging up Ms. Charlene's Flower bed and laying in the cool dirt. She doesn't seem to be really happy about it though.


Betty and Teddie got in trouble for digging the biggest holes and they felt really bad about it too!
They laid down by the fence way away from the flowerbed and watched Ms. Charlene fill in all the holes with dirt again.
Not much else has been going on around here, Ms. Charlene said it is way to hot to do much horseback riding and I think all the horses are glad about that.
She says there will be plenty of time this fall to catch up on riding and camping once the weather cools down and her schedule is back to normal.
