visit from the fearless five

howdy all doggies and kitties

the brinksey winksey pudding and pie here wiff a most exciteable event to tell......

so we begins wiff the middle of the night okay.....now as many of you may know our mommish does not like this time of the day as she gets the shivery fears wiff the panics.....we try out berry best to soothe her but sometimes its not enough .....goog fing that you guys are out here cause only your most funnish and loveable stories be helping chase away the panic monster......

anywoo, so last night mommish was trying to go nite nite tooty sleep.....after about 30 minutes as she was going to doze off she heard the wee two legger Jr (or as we call me pookie bear) start to move.....he was giggling a bit and squirming but had the biggest smile ever to be!!!!! so my mommish continued to watch as she was enjoying his giggles then all of a sudden he wakes up and start laughing......mommish does not move just watches.......he is staring up at the ceiling and giggling some more.....now he is pawing at the ceiling and moving his head back and forth to the left and giggle.....to the right and giggle.....he was staring at something moving and making him laugh....sometimes he would close his eyes and kind of tuck his neck in as if someone was snuzzling him or tickling behing his ears.....this continued for a good long five minutes....mommish just stared not wanting to move and disrupt the amazing thing that was happening.....mommish especially loves him grabbing and pawing at something in the air with the look of pure joy an happiness as if he could see something most wonderful.....after a while he turned to the side and continued to giggle softly and then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.....now you must know the wee two legger DOES NOT fall asleep on his own EVER....he always has mommish rock him back to sleep in the middle of the night but mommish felt and inmmense sense of calm that she can not describe take over her and for the first time in a long time she fell asleep hugging the two legger and did'nt wake up until morning time with NO PANIC ATTACK.
mommish knows in her heart that what she witnessed was amazing and unbeleiveable as she knows in her heart that the fearless five came to visit us.....she now fully beleives they are okay and will always be with us to love on us, and protect us as they did that terrible night.....so as we all go tooty nite nite tonight we will say goodnite to the fearless five and let them watch over us as we sleep ....our preciuos fearless angels of protection..... we love you .... we feel you.....we hold you close through our pain......

a month later

howdy everyone,

the pibble mommish here with some pictures to share with ya'll. as you may remember this is patty cakes's, another of Shelby's pups who lives with spirit and two other rescues at my mother in laws. i get to see the beautiful face everyday and it chases away the depression clouds right away. especially those pibble sugars.
things are still not progressing with the house they need more and more paperwork from the contractor and every single person who is going to work on the house. we are not able to even start the demolition process until each electrician and plumber and what not has been contacted and has signed certain documents. so ....it has taken some time as we have to research and find out who is best for each job....
i have been getting claustrophobic lately .....it could be just another anxiety symptom to pile on my panic attacks. it could be my job. i work inside a vault(which is underground by the way ) for a bank. or it sleeping in the tiny garage with no windows.....who knows it could just all be the stress of it all. just trying to deal with everything as best as i can and continue to remember that god did not bring "it" to us..it was god who send the fearless five on a mission that night to save the rest of us from that burning inferno. so in their name i try to be brave every night i get anxious or panicky. i spoke with frankie furters mom the other night....it was much needed and im so thankful she took the time to call me. only your own blogville family can listen and UNDERSTAND what it is to lose your furbabies...we came to the realization that i may be using your blogs as my crutch for my panic attacks...i explained how very much helpful it is to read the blogs when i feel the panic attacks coming. now i know that if i get online that i can control myself a little better. .....if anyone is going to help me get through this is going to be you guys so please continue with your wonderful and funny , happy making posts and know that someone out there is feeling a little better and a little less anxious because of your posts.
pibble sugars to all

mr chico is at it again

howdy every woggie and meow meow's
so .. . .let ush tell you about our little "situation" that happened last week
now we know our angel brofer chico had a hand in thish but let ush tell you from the beginning
so . . . . last week sometime we had a weally bad cold front come in
now you guys must understand that the weather here in houston is completely unpredictable around these months
we can be welaxing at the beach in the morning and by sundown it could be in the 30's
so . . . . one night last week as we were deep in our pibble dreams of fields of liver tweats and trees that grow stuffies we kept hearing a whimpering coming from outside our window
now we got up and sniffed around our room and the living room but eventually went back to snuggle with our mommish . well a wittle while later we heard it again.and it sounded weally shad and kinda like whatever it was was scared or in pain or SOMETHING
so mommish got up cause she knew then that she was not imagening thish and she gets her jammy coat on a flashlite and takes the brinkster with her to investigate outside
now mind you thish ish like 3 in the morning and it is freezing doggy bones outside. so here we go to investigate thish wimpering
we come outshide and hear nothing.we start looking around and find nothing
just as we were going to head back inshide we hear it again. its coming from the side of the house where the trash bin ish . so we takes a sniff around and look what we shee

thish little furball was curled up in a wittle ball shivering and shaking trying to hide from the freezing wind between the trash bin and out wall. mommish of course picked him up and took him inside and started to check him out. he was vewy malnourished , you could definately feels his wittle ribs and had several wounds as if he'd had some encounters wiff some woggies in the neighborhood and he had wittle puppy teeth. mommish gave him some food of course and he gobbled it righ up. he had no tags , no collar, no nothing to give ush a clue as to where he came from.so we decided to gives him a nice place to stay during the nitey nite

ash you can see lucky was happy to share her wittle cave wiff him and even was kind enuff to share her favorite toy. she knows whats its like to be hungry , cold and lonely out there on the streets and so she took it upon hersellf to gives him a tour of the pibble kingsdom

so of course we took him to the vet. he was not microshipped , we asked around the neighborhood and no one wanted to claim him or claimed they had seen him or who he belonged too. now as you know we already have 4 pibbles and a lucky chiwi/weeny so its a more than full house. mommish said she sat there and wondered what exactly mr chico was up to. she can just bet her collection of heels on the fact that our angel brofur let this wittle one to our house and told him if he wimpered loud enough he would survive that cold and windy nite.

our pawrents are just softies when it comes to animals.he knew that once found they would'nt turn him away. but what can you do when you have 5 dogs already???

well mr angel chico sir

what mommish says shes' going to have to do ish work a couple of more hours of overtime to pay for more woggie food and extra stuffies and extra boy clothes.

thats what shes going to do

she says that as long as god gives her the strenght to work to provide for homeless woggies then she will do what she has to do.

we decided to name him tiger . cause he looks like a tiger stuffie we had for a long time before

her queen almighty coco chanel decapitated it when she was having one of her "diva moments" i mean really , could you have turned thish face away on a cold and windy night???????????

we'll see how things progess. . . . .

wish ush luck

lots of pibble sugars and wiggle wags

shelby's SPIRIT lives on

shelby: blogvilles personal angel saved by blogville, forever to protect us from above....

hello everyone,

pibble mommish here. this is a very much bittersweet post. as many of you know i am currently living in my mother in laws garage. my mother in law is the one who took in shelby's miracle babies pattycakes and spirit. i use to look at spirit and always imagen that i exactly what shelby would have looked like without all her scars. the scars that came to tell the horrible things she had endured for years. those scars made her to me even more beautiful. they spoke volumes when she licked you gently or snuggled with you at night. they told you that although this beautiful creature had gone through hell and pain that she loved humans so much that she gave us one more chance and we had not failed her. through blogville all of us together we were able to give hope to one hopeless pibble who had given up and wanted to just die without any more pain. instead everyone joined paws and together we showed her what love was. what love is soppose to be for all furry creatures. shelby changed so many of our lives with just her forgiveness alone. her will to keep fighting despite being used in the worst possible way. used for greed and evil. i will never forget the day we took her to the vet and found out that not only had she been used as bait, burned and impregnated countless of times. but her teeth had been pulled out and she had been shot. all this while carrying precious bundles of babies inside. yet she continued to push forward. she is the reason i now continue to push forward. maybe that is the lesson she was soppose to come and teach me in her short life that she had with me. ..... im still trying to understand what i can learn from this horrible tragedy. if she was able to continue to live and live with joy for every minute then i have to continue somehow ... someway .... for shelby .... for what she stood for.....
who would have known when khyra picked the name spirit that it would be so prophetic. shelby's SPIRIT truly lives on in this precious pup. identical to shelby.
when i look at these pictures of the two of them and realize that spirit would not be alive if it was'nt for you guys, for destiny taking me to that parking lot that day and most of all for shelby's strong and courageous and forgiving SPIRIT.
pibble sugars to all

*3 smiles for mommish*

howdy everyone,

momma pittie here with another update...days have been going okay. their is bad days and good days. i try to be positive and try not to relive the memories as much as i use to. unfortunately my body is not cooperating with me as i have started to wake up with panic attacks the last 2 days. its pretty terrifying and i thought i was having a heart attack the first time i woke up sweating buckets and heart beating 100 miles a minute but after a while it calmed down. i think maybe because i was so scared to have another one that i provoked it last night with all my nervousness....

this is a process im working on and until i can fully grieve and go through that process maybe the panic attacks will subside. in the meantime let me share with you that the one thing that has calmed me down both times was to get online and read blogs....im sorry i don't comment alot but please know that i do read your wonderful and funny posts and they help me through the hard sleepless nights. today i had a not so very good day but have decided to turn it into a good thing. i came home and realized it had been two weeks since i bought dog food and knew for certain that we were on the last part of the bag until i came home and realized that since i now have only my two pibbles that the one bag will last me a lot longer than before...... i immediately cried as this realization hit me.....i got online and started reading your blogs and let me share some of the things that made me smile....

this gorgeous quilt is being made by WHATS HER NAME as she is so affectionately called. you MUST go visit her at http://dachsieswithmoxie.blogspot.com/ please and let her know just how kind and thoughtful her gift is....she is making this memory quilt in honor of my angels up in heaven. please go to her bloggy for more information. i would love for you to pawticipate and send in a little small piece of fabric to help with the quilt. thank you dachsies with moxie and especially WHATS HER NAME for taking the time and labor to do this MOST kind thing for our family.....
now these two are two of our most favorite pibbles ever to be!!! miss M and mr B along with their parents A and E of two pitties in the city have been one of our most favorite blogs for a VERY long time. we have followed them as long as i can remember them and admire them so much for all they do to show everyone they possibly can how wonderful pibbles are. both pooches are the very best of ambassadors and gorgeous to boot. today we saw this MOST pawsome article featuring this most wonderful blog in the chicago tribune!!!!! please click on the link above and read the great positive press that the pibbles received. we are beyond proud and beaming with happiness for them. please click on their name above to read their wonderful blog full of gorgeous photography and tour of their city. the handsome mr B even joins in on the photography with his own doggie camera. you definitely don't want to miss that.
now to something that had me worried to bits the last couple of days.......our sweet friends at http://cocos2cute.blogspot.com/ have been having a terrible scared with their beautiful princess lady godiva who has been having seizures and not feeling well. ever since i read about her health scare i have had a candle lit and prayed very hard so that my pibble angels surround lady godiva with healing pibble sugars as she is fighting her battle. today i logged on and read that she was feeling much the betterments and you have no idea what a sigh of relief that was....those news alone should help me sleep a little better tonight and hopefully i wont have any of the yucky panic attacks....please keep lady godiva in your prayers and send her healing sugars to keep the evil seizures away...

i hope you enjoyed my 3 smiles post and hopefully i will have more smiles to share in the coming days and weeks. thanks again to all of those still taking this journey with me.

with love and pibbles sugars

coco chanel:the queen

hello my fellow angel's. i want to take a moment and thank each and everyone of you who is still following along my journey as well as all those kind souls who have so generously donated money and kind words to our little pack...every cent and words mean the world to us...thank you....below is my dedication to my queen...coco chanel
when you look at the picture above i pray and hope with all my heart that this is how coco chanel and my guero are now on the rainbow bridge.....together.....coco chanel was my second rescue.....as soon as they met they were inseperable....destined to be best friends forever and one could never be without the other.......it was just unthinkable to be apart. i often wondered and dreaded how sad it was going to be when one or the other passed first. i imagened it would be so deppresing for one to have to live without the other..they had a special bond guero and coco ...a bond only two such loyal (as only dogs can be) beings can have to each other.....
this is how their bond was above ...guero always giving her kisses to take away the grumpyness and her finally accepting them with that huge gorgeous smile on her face......
coco chanel "THE QUEEN OF ALL THE FURRY UNIVERSE" as she became to be known for really took to her name. you see the reason i started calling her the queen was because she reminded me so much of the queen of hearts ... "off with their heads" is a perfect phrase to describe coco chanel's personality BOL. i have lost count of the number of victims i found not only scattered in the yard ( lizards,birds,tree rats, frogs) but also on top of my bed (rats). all with one distinct characteristic.......ALL WERE MISSING THEIR HEAD....yes sir.... you heard me right....they were all headless and only their body was always found. she would proudly display her work for me by waiting patiently by the foot of the bed next to the body of the headless rat that she so tirelessly hunted to save our household from thei evilness...tail wagging with her huge smile i could not help but to smile and hug her everytime (although i would stay away from her kisses for a while lol ). so thats why she earned her name the queen....OFF WITH THEIR HEADS I SAY !!!!!
below is the comical origin story of coco chanel which i blogged about in only about my second post. their were no comments left back then i just enjoyed being able to chronicle all the fun i had living with my furbabies.....please enjoy the queens take on her rescue.......










The name is Coco Chanel

once upon a time long ago i was living in a bad place filled with ant bites and nightmares. those mongrels did not recognize the blue blood in me and had me living in filth. one day my soon to be mommy came and saw me and rescued me.
obviously she saw the royalty she had in her hands.smart woman that mother of mine ! needless to say i have taken my rightful place as queen and ever since have ruled my kingdom. oh and i have to share it with guero who thinks he is king, and a bratty young ling called brinks who my mom calls her fat little prince.she got the fat part right. he cant be considered a prince in my book because he has absolutely no etiquette. he eats on his stomach for pittie's sake!

anyways so . . . the reason for my writing other than mommy wanting me to properly introduce myself was too state my unhappiness about a certain situation that arose about a year ago.

my mother came home with a PEASANT whom she calls Bella.now I'm all up for mommy helping out the needy people with food and water but she brought her home to LIVE!!!!! i can smell her perfume when we take turns sleeping between my Mommy's room and grammys.
my mommy says that I'm still the queen of the house and gives me lots of treats and kisses but i must say i am not very convinced about this whole situation.
I'm old and grumpy so I'm not allowed to play with her which suits me just fine.
as long as she doesn't start thinking she's princess or anything I'll let her share mommy for now.

more to come in this new development.
i must say I'm not happy mother . . . not happy at all
your highness
THE QUEEN*





!!!!! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN !!!!!!!

Happy new year my angels

Dear guero,shelby,lucky,tiger n coco......I love u so fiercely I don't know how to put it into words but when u see fireworks in the sky don't be scared my angels, please think of them as kisses being sent from ur mommish to u in heaven.....pibble sugars my babies.....

my guero....my angel....

hello everyone

momma pibble here with another post... still trying to use blogging as my source of therapy .....i have returned back to work and that seems to help ease the pain if only for a while....i've had good days and bad....somedays it seems bearable and some days like today im a mess....

today i thought all day about my heart........my guero.........below you can see a picture that truly captures my bond with him.......i would wake up in the morning and this is what i would see.....
the most beautiful face on earth staring back at me with those gentle loving eyes....i stared into those eyes every morning for almost 8 years and waking up and not seeing them is heart wrenching.....my heart is unwilling to understand that i can no longer wake up to this ......my mind refuses to comprehend........today in particular as i was passing the firework stand on my way home i cried and cried thinking of my guero......you see he was fiercely scared of fireworks and would come cuddle under the blankets with me at those times and i would softly talk to him and rub him and comfort him as the night went on......we did this all his time with me....he was my baby......today just thinking that new years is coming up ....he is going to be outside under our tree....in the midst of all the noise and fireworks and i wont be able to comfort him like i always did.......im typing through tears just thinking of that thought.......below for those who dont know his story i have copied and pasted my previous post about my guero......the beginning of my love for this angel of mine......if you have the time please read on .......


hello there every doggie
momma pittie here for the first time i am allowed to post a bloggy of my very own. the most gracious and beautiful queen of all that is furry coco chanel has given me her blessing to make my special post about mr guero's beginnings.thank you, your majesty i will try to do you proud.


ok well where do i begin , , , , i felt that today would be proper to tell the story of guero since yesterday was his 7th birthday and it made me very sad knowing that he is considered a senior now.actually when one of my co workers mentioned that to me i got tears in my eyes just thinking that he is getting old.you see all my fur kids are special tome as you all know but guero . . . . guero is my heart. guero is what started it all for me. guero is the reason i so passionately advocate pibbles.before guero i never had a dog. all my life i grew up with cats. my mother adores cats and we all still do.but guero came into my life and completely changed it in a way that i will never forget.

if you guys will bear with me i shall start at the beginning.

i remember one sunday evening we were on our way to walmart and it was extremely hot as summer evenings tend to be here in houston tx. the type of heat that is humid and blistering if you stand out there too long.well . . . we saw a young couple such as me and my husband were and she shyly came up to me and asked if i would consider taking in a pet. of course we weren't interested . we had just moved into our first house we were renting and had no idea if pets were allowed and hadn't even considered it. i asked what type of pet and she said a 4 month old pitbull. she was almost crying and i asked why she was getting rid of it and she all but broke down right then and there. she said that she had lived in a house not too far away from where walmart is and that her neighbors had bought a pitbull he was just about 7 weeks old when she first saw him and they tied him up outside to a tree and she could hear him crying his little lungs out all day and night. she could also hear them hit him and beat him to be quiet. it was breaking her heart to see this beautiful puppy get so mistreated.well about a week later she overheard through her fence the man talking about the dog and how he'll eventually learn to be quiet with the beatings or else he'd stop feeding him until he learn to shut up. this girl said that she was moving out with her boyfriend that weekend and she could not stop thinking about that puppy. that saturday night as they were packing the truck for the last trip she saw that the puppy was chewing on the leash he was tied to.well her and her boyfriend sat there and waited and within 20 minutes the puppy was loose. they immediately called him over and put him in the truck and left. well needless to say she fell in love with the puppy but she had to find him a home because she was going to college after the summer and couldn't care for him.so . . . me being the sucker for stories that i am agreed to take a look at this puppy i heard so much about. we walked over to her van and she picked up this red little bundle. she handed him to me and i picked him up and looked at his face and then my world just faded away in his eyes. he had the most gorgeous Japanese eyes i had ever seen and he kept giving me his puppy eyes that i just knew were asking me to love him. he gave me a cautious lick on the nose and it was over! i don't think i had ever been that impulsive before. i had never imagined i would love something so fiercely so quick. just thinking that someone had beat this bundle of love made me angry. all these emotions going through me all at once. i asked the girl how much she wanted for him and she said nothing. she just wanted him to go to a good home and if she could please have my address or email . i gave her my address that i had on my id card and my email and cell phone number just in case she wanted to come ck on him. we didn't even make it to walmart. we went straight to petsmart and enrolled him in the vet , got him some toys and all the puppy stuff that comes with getting a pupper. when i took in guero i never even thought about him being a pitbull. i just loved him unconditionally because he was so loving. but i quickly realized that having a pitbull was not like having a regular dog. i remember the second time i took him to petsmart this time on his leash and now 5 pounds heavier. i was so excited to have my puppy with me and he was so loving and just loved on everybody. i started to notice how people would go out of their way to get away from us . we would get nasty looks and they would pick their dogs up if we passed by their isle. guero of course didn't notice any of this he was jolly and happy to be sniffing all the treats and food petsmart has to offer. same thing at the parks . mothers would grab their child and walk the other way, joggers would run on the grass instead of the pavement to get as far away from guero. i realized that people hated my guero just because of how he looked. i would go home crying so many times at the beginning because i didn't understand. why would anyone hate my guero? he was the most precious thing in my life and so loving all he wanted was to give kisses to all humans and dogs alike. until then i was naive about dogs. i started to research about my guero's breed. look up organizations that rescued these breeds and realized all the horrible things they had endured and still endure. i cried many days reading all the cities and states that ban them just because of how they look. i decided that with guero i would make it a point to start changing peoples minds slowly but surely. even if its one person a week , a month , a year . one person can tell one more person and so on. and so my quest began. i started with family and friends. everywhere i went guero went. family reunions . weekend visits.barbq's .i am proud to say that 5 families of mine now have at least two rescue pitbulls living inside their home and they are spoiled rotten. and they tell their friends and i hope the cycle goes on. out of my 3 best friends 2 of them have pibbles as well sleeping in their bed.
my mother in law who was terrified of dogs in general has a pibble who she loves so much he gets homemade meals everyday especially made for him..we still get friends bringing over their friends to see the infamous guero. everyone loves the way he looks and even more the way he acts. he is so loving and everyone you talk to in my circle of friends and family can tell you a story about guero . . i don't want to think about ever having him NOT in my life. just the thought makes my eyes leak as my fur kids say. i know that realistically one day im going to have to live without him that is why when i see our dear bloggin friends going through having to say good bye to their beloved fur kids it breaks my heart and i pray very hard for them because i know how much it would devastate me to have to say good bye to my fur kids. until that time comes i will cherish every moment i have with them. my guero changed me into who i am today. i was never outspoken about issues until i had to defend him. i never had a passion for anything in particular until i had to defend him. and i never knew how one sweet pibble kiss could melt a humans heart until he kissed me that one fateful sunday at walmart.
so on his 7th birthday week
heres to my guero , my heart

bella the nanny

hello everyone and thank you for taking this journey with me.....i cant say its getting better...i still have bouts of crying especially around my mom....you see my mom is also taking this very hard....she was the one who would sleep with shelby most every night and feels horrible that she could'nt get shelby out. shelby was hiding under the bed in the very far corner of it....none of us could fit close enough to get to her and the smoke was overpowering...together and with your kind and loving words we will get through this together......now bella was always fond of our little two legger but ever since the fire happened she has taken on a whole other trait....she is super watchful and super vigilant over him....as soon as she hears him cry or wake up she alerts us and never lets him out of her sight......
i know she sensed that something could have gone worse with our two legger because you see...the fire that destroyed our home started in the baby's room...he's had really bad ear infections the last couple of weeks so he's been sleeping with us....in fact my husband had transferred his crib over from his room to ours TWO days before the fire......i try to look at all these things and see that it could have been much worse .......
for now my new nanny will help me care for OUR baby as she also tries to process what has happened to our pack...
