MY THREE GRANDKIDS by SMOKEYDOGSOCKS

THIS MORNING, SEPT 17 2009, WHEN I OPENED UP MY BUBBLE SITE, I NOTICED SOME COMMENTS FROM EDWARD DENYER, AKA TED, ABOUT SEVERAL OF MY IMAGES. WELL, AS ALWAYS, WHENEVER SOMEONE LOOKS INTO MY GALLERY AND ARE NICE ENOUGH TO COMPLIMENT OR COMMENT ON MY IMAGES, I GO TO THEIR SITE AND CHECK OUT THEIR WORKS. SO, AS I WAS STROLING THROUGH TEDS GALLERY, I SAW THIS IMAGE OF THREE VERY CUTE LITTLE CORGI PUPPIES. AS SOON AS I SAW THAT SHOT, I SAID TO MYSELF, I SAID SELF, YOU NEED TO PUT UP THE PHOTO OF MY THREE WOLF HYBRID PUPPIES THAT WERE BORN UNDER MY BED. SINCE I CONSIDER MY FAMILY PETS TO BE MY KIDS, IF ONE OF MY FEMALES HAS PUPS BY ONE OF MY MALES, THEN THAT WOULD MAKE THEIR PUPPIES “MY THREE GRANDKIDS”. THE MIX OF THESE PUPPIES IS 85% ARCTIC/TUNDRA, 7% GERMAN SHEPHERD AND 8% MALAMUTE. WHEN THEY WERE WHELPED FROM THEIR MOTHER, I NEVER HEARD ONE SINGLE SOUND OUT OF MY 75% ARCTIC FEMALE. REMEMBER, I SAID EARLIER, THEY WERE BORN UNDER MY BED AND I WAS LAYING ON THE BED AT THE TIME. IT WAS SO AMAZING TO HOLD IN MY HANDS A 20 MINUTE OLD PUPPY. I ALLOWED DEGOEE TO CLEAN EACH PUP BEFORE I TRIED TO PICK ANY OF THEM UP. THE FIRST BORN MALE, TACOMA, WAS SOLD BEFORE HE WAS EVER CONCEIVED, THE SECOND BORN MALE WAS SOLD TO AN AIRFORCE CAPTAIN. SHE BROUGHT HIM BACK ONE WEEK LATER, SHE HAD BEEN TRANSFERED TO GERMANY AND SHE COULDN’T TAKE HIM WITH HER. SO, I KEPT HIM AND NAMED HIM SMOKEY FOUR SOCKS. I WAS SO GLAD TO SEE HIM WHEN SHE BROUGHT HIM BACK TO ME. HE WAS MY FAVORITE AND I SO WANTED TO KEEP HIM ANYWAY AND NOT SELL HIM. THE THIRD PUP TO BE BORN WAS A LITTLE FEMALE AND SHE HAD A RATHER ROUGH START IN HER HUMANS HOUSEHOLED. SHE WAS STARVED FOR ATTENTION BY HER OWNERS AND WHEN THEY MOVED INTO A HOUSE ON A STREET BEHIND ME, I CAN SEE THEIR DRIVEWAY FROM MY BACKYARD, SUDDENLY I SAW A RATHER BEAUTIFUL WOLF HYBRID WALKING DOWN THE SIDEWALK IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE. I FIGURED IT WAS HER, JUST FROM HER LOOK WHEN I LAST SAW HER AT THE AGE OF 8 MONTHS OLD. WHEN I CALLED TO HER, SHE TUCKED HER TAIL AND KEPT GOING. THE NEXT DAY, I SAW HER AGAIN IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE. BY THIS TIME SHE WAS 1 1/2 YEARS OLD. THIS TIME WHEN I CALLED TO HER, SHE RECOGNIZED MY VOICE AND KIND OF SAID TO HERSELF, I REMEMBER THAT HUMAN FOR SOME REASON, AND THIS TIME SHE CAME TO ME. IT TOOK HER HUMANS 4 1/2 HOURS TO COME AROUND THE BLOCK TO GET THEIR WOLF HYBRID. WELL, THREE TIMES LATER, I ENDED UP CALLING THE ASPCA AND HAVING THEM PICK HER UP AT MY HOUSE IN VACAVILLE CALIFORNIA AND TAKING HER BACK TO HER HOUSE. WHEN THE ASPCA TOOK HER THEIR, THEY TOLD HIM TO KEEP HER. I WANTED TO SHOOT THAT SON OF A BIT#@. IF I HAD KNOWN THEY WERE GOING TO GIVE HER UP, I HAD A HOME ALL PICKED OUT FOR HER. SO, I NEVER KNEW THE LIFE OF SASHA MARIE AFTER THAT. I DID SEE A MAN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN, WALKING A VERY SMALL CHIHUAHUA AND A LARGE WOLF LOOKING DOG THAT COULD HAVE FIT SASH’S DISCRIPTION. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT SHE GOT TO LIVE A LONG AND HAPPY LIFE WITH SOMEONE WHO APPRECIATED AND TOOK CARE OF HER. THE ORDER OF THESE THREE ARE, TACOMA ON THE LEFT, SMOKEY FOUR SOCKS, ON THE RIGHT AND SASHA MARIE IN THE MIDDLE. THEY ARE LOOKING AT THEIR FATHER, WHO IS LAYING ON THE FLOOR IN FRONT OF ME. I PUSHED EVOLUTION THE DAY THOSE PUPS WERE BORN. NORMALLY THE FATHER OF THE PUPS, WON’T SEE THE PUPS FOR ABOUT THREE MONTHS OUT IN THE WILD. FOURS SOCKS, GOT TO SEE HIS NEW OFFSPRING THE NIGHT THEY WERE BORN AND HE GOT TO PLAY WITH THEM ABOUT ONE MONTH LATER. IT TOOK THAT LONG FOR THEM TO REALLY GET MOTIVATED TO DO MORE THAN STAY IN THE PEN WITH MOM. I SURE DO MISS THE SOUND OF TWO ADULT WOLF HYBRIDS AND THREE PUPPY WOLF HYBRIDS, SCAMPERING THROUGH THE HOUSE ON THE WAY OUT TO THE BACK YARD. OUR HOUSE IS UP OFF THE GROUND, SO IT MADE LOTS OF NOISE AS THEY WENT THROUGH FROM MY BEDROOM DOWN THE HALL THROUGH THE DINNING ROOM PAST THE KITCHEN AND THROUGH THE DEN TO THE BACK YARD. ONCE THEY GOT MORE ADJILITY AND COORDINATION, THEY REALLY STARTED PLAYING WITH EACH OTHER AND THEIR PARENTS. I SURE DO MISS THEM. I WISH PUPPIES COULD STAY PUPPY SIZED FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS TO A YEAR. THEY ARE SO CLUMBSEY AND CUTE AT THOSE STAGES OF THEIR LIVES. THESE PUPPIES WERE BORN ON JANUARY 22 1996. THEIR PARENTS ARE GONE NOW AS ARE THEY. TACOMA LIVED THE LONGEST AND PAST LAST APRIL AT THE AGE OF13 YEARS 2 MONTHS. SMOKEY FOUR SOCKS, MY KID, PASSED AT 13 DAYS SHORT OF HIS 8TH BIRTHDAY ON JANUARY 9, 2004. HE HAD A TUMOR ON HIS HEART AND IT BURST HIS AORATA. I WAS SO DISTROUT, I HAD TO GO SEE A MENTAL HEALTH THERAPIST FOR ALMOST A FULL YEAR. LIKE I SAID, I’M NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED TO SASHA MARIE. MY PACK OF 5 WOLF HYBRIDS DIDN’T LAST LONG, AND MY PACK OF THREE DIDN’T LAST AS LONG AS I WAS HOPING FOR, BUT I THANK GOD FOR ALLOWING ME TO SHARE MY LIFE WITH HIS CREATIONS FOR AS LONG AS I HAD WITH THEM. SO, AFTER HAVING 4 DIFFERENT HYBRIDS, INCLUDING MY FIRST ONE IN 1977, I’VE HAD 48 ACCUMULATIVE YEARS EXPERIENCE WITH SUCH LOVING CREATURES. WELL, TODAY IS MY MOM’S 80’TH BIRTHDAY AND I PROMISED HER I WOULD FIX HER STEAK AND KING CRAB LEGS FOR HER DINNER. SHE JUST WALKED IN AND ASKED ME WHEN I WAS GOING TO FIX THE STEAKS, I’M OFF TO THE CHARCOAL GRILL.

Ma New Boy Brody by MarianBendeth

I went to a Breeders and I will be the proud owner of this Wee Little West Highland White Terrier which I have named Brody! He is only one month here so I will have to wait..Don’t know if I can wait that long….. Brody will be my fourth Westie. There is a twist to this story. My second Westie – Terry was born on October 22nd. Just before his death, he fell down the stairs and was paralyzed. The Vet gave him a few days reprieve but we knew the outcome. Terry passed away on his 15th Birthday, October 22nd at 8:00 a.m. The twist? Twenty years later, Brody was born on October 22nd at….8:00 a.m.!!! Methinks it is fate.

JANUARY 22 1996 by SMOKEYDOGSOCKS

NOT EVERY BODY GETS TO SEE AN IMAGE LIKE THIS. I WAS BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO SEE IT MYSELF, SO I HAVE A LOT OF EMOTION ATTACHED WITH THIS SHOT. THE DAY WAS “JANUARY 22 1996”. ON THIS DAY, MY 75% ARCTIC WOLF, DEOGEE SHAWNA WHITE WOLF, THAT WAS HER REGISTERED NAME, GAVE BIRTH, OR WHELPED, THREE GORGEOUS LITTLE PACKETS OF LIFE CALLED,,, PUPPIES! WHEN I TOOK THIS SHOT, TACOMA, THE FIRST BORN MALE WAS ALREADY CUDDLEING UP CLOSE TO MOM. THIS LITTLE BLACK AND WHITE GUY THAT YOU SEE HERE WAS JUST FINISHED GETTING CLEANED UP BY DEOGEE AND HE WAS CRAWLING ACROSS THE FLOOR. AS YOU CAN SEE THE LITTLE BLOOD TRAIL LEFT BEHIND HIM, HIS UMBILLICLE CORD WAS NOT QUITE FINISHED DRAINING. IT WASN’T LONG AFTER I TOOK THIS SHOT AND I HAD LEFT DEOGEE ALONE,,,,THAT SHE SOON WHELPED ANOTHER LITTLE BUNDLE OF LIFE. SHE ENDED UP BEING NAMED, SASHA MARIE, BUT SHE HAD A ROUGH LIFE AS FAR AS I KNEW OF IT, UP UNTIL SHE WAS ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS OLD. AFTER THAT, I’M NOT SURE IF SHE WAS PUT DOWN BY THE ASPCA, FOR BEING A HIGHBRID WOLF-85% ARCTIC/TIMBER, THAT WAS ONLY STARVED FOR ATTENTION,,,,OR IF SOMEONE ADDOPTED HER AND HAD A LOVING LIFE WITH. THIS SHOT WAS TAKEN WITH A CANON EOS 620, 35MM FILM CAMERA AND I DIGITIZED THE 3X5 PHOTO. I USED MY CANON 100-300MM TELEPHOTO TO ZOOM IN AND NOT INVADE DEOGEES SPACE. I FIGURED SHE WAS GOING TO BE A LOT LESS NERVEOUS THIS WAY, OVER ME BEING IN CLOSE WITH MY 35-105MM LENS. I’LL NEVER FORGET THAT DAY FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE. IT HAD SO MUCH EMOTION GOING ON THAT IT IS IMBEDDED IN MY SOUL AND I WILL TAKE IT WITH ME INTO MY NEXT LIFE. NOT REINCARNATED,, MY AFTERLIFE. IT’S THE LOVE THAT YOU TAKE WITH YOU AND THERE WAS DEFFINATELY A LOT OF LOVE GOING AROUND INSIDE ME THAT DAY. IT CARRIED ON FOR MANY MORE YEARS, UNTIL ONE DAY,,,,,ALL MY WOLF HYBRIDS,,,WERE GONE. TACOMA, WAS THE LAST TO PASS,,,,,, OUT OF ALL FIVE OF MY KIDS. HE MADE IT TO 13 YEARS AND TWO MONTHS. SMOKEY FOUR SOCKS,, THE LITTLE GUY IN THE PHOTO ONLY MADE IT TO 13 DAYS SHORT OF HIS 8TH BIRTHDAY. HE DEVELOPED A TUMOR ON HIS HEART AND SPLEEN AND THE ONE ON HIS HEART RUPTURED HIS AORTA. I SPENT THE ENTIRE DAY ON JANUARY 9 2004 TAKING HIM FIRST TO MY LOCAL VETERIANS OFFICE, THEN TO UC DAVIS VERTERIAN SCHOOL IN DAVIS CALIFORNIA. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULDN’T SAVE HIM BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T HAVE A SMALL ANIMAL CARDIOLOGY DEPARTMENT. I COULD HAVE SAVE HIM IF I COULD TAKE HIM TO TEXAS A & M. HE WOULD HAVE NEVER MADE IT BACK TO VACAVILLE LET ALONE TEXAS. SO, I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE HIM PUT DOWN. I CRAWLED INSIDE THE KENNEL THAT THEY HAD HIM IN AND PUT MY ARMS AROUND HIM AND HELD HIM FOR TWO HOURS, WHEN I NEW HE WASN’T FEELING HIMSELF, I HAD THE DOCTOR GIVE HIM THE SHOT. THAT HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE, “THE WORST DAY OF MY LIFE AND THE BEST DAY AT THE SAME TIME”. I KNEW SMOKEY WAS GOING ON TO A BETTER PLACE, BUT I HATED LIKE HELL TO HAVE TO GIVE HIM UP SO SOON IN HIS SHORT LIFE. I GOTTA STOP, HERE, I’M CRYING TO MUCH TO TYPE GOOD. OK, I’M BACK. I JUST NOTICED THAT WHEN THIS SHOT WAS TAKEN, ALL THREE PUPS HAD BEEN WHELPED AND DRIED. HEY, IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO AND I DIDN’T HAVE MY GLASSES ON WHEN I LOOKED AT THE SHOT THE FIRST TIME. LOL OH WELL.
