Lily loves snuggling

I think it's a dachshund thing for sure, and maybe just a dog thing. Lily loves to be as close as possible to anyone she can. She loves to be warm and she will do whatever it takes to get that way. Karim was laying down and Lily used everything she had to wedge her way under his arm. It was pretty adorable, if I do say so myself!

Oh my, the ears!

Longing for Spring

Yep, I've already had enough of winter. It's been really cold for the past few days. Seeing this amazing dress today makes me want Spring to get here even faster (if that's even possible)!
Stay warm!

Lily on the Etsy Veg Blog!

I'm excited to share that Lily is featured as the pet of the week on the Etsy Veg Blog!! A few weeks ago I completed the interview and sent it in. I'm so happy to see it get posted! I'm sure Lily will be very pleased to hear about it too :)

PS moving day is this weekend! I can't believe it snuck up so quickly! Let's see how Lily reacts. It should be interesting to say the least.

Random yet awesome

I don't know that this really even needs a caption :)

This Saturday is Bazzart at the American Visionary Art Museum!! I'm so super excited. Mainly for some of my favorite Etsy sellers and also for Brunie's Bakery!!Clearly vegan baked goods get me every time.

If you live near Baltimore I highly recommend stopping by!

Have a great tofurky day :)

I'm deeply saddened

After reading this news story, it makes me nauseous. To think about people treating animals like they are disposable and cannot feel pain and emotions makes me lose that much more faith in humanity. I am very thankful that there are like minded people out there that can agree that dog fighting, and all animal abuse, is atrocious. What kind of person gets joy out of torturing animals? It's disgusting.

If you are interested in making a donation to the organization that is caring for the pit bulls in this particular dog fighting ring, you can do so on their website. BARCS has unfortunately been in the news a lot recently since there have been numerous animal cruelty cases discovered in Baltimore. I am thankful there are kind people to work and volunteer for shelters like BARCS, so that many more animals can be cared for.

If you know of animal cruelty happening, please report it. That is what saved some of these dogs, although some couldn't be saved and thousands more are out there that need to be saved.

Thank you.
