I’m so heartbroken to announce that our beautiful sire, R***r, crossed the Rainbow Bridge today at 11 years old. Oh R***r, what will we do without you!? He was a crazy, happy, loyal pal for 11 years! He was the best hunting buddy and never heard a gun shot he didn’t love! He loved his rides in the truck with Shaine, his long naps under the covers, and a good cow bone! He was always up for an adventure. He was the happiest dog ever, who always wagged his little nubby tail. We laugh at all his pictures, because his tail was always a blur. He was a dad to 23 pups, and many have become avid hunters! He loved Remi, his sweetheart of 9 years! Have fun in doggie Heaven, retrieving quail for Shaine’s grandpa! Grandpa needs a good bird dog up there! We will miss you, Rugie!!!

Rossi’s pedigree

I can’t believe this handsome boy is 3 months old already! He’s the best behaved puppy ever!!!

Rossi- 12 weeks old! He got more shots today. As you can see he was so worried he passed out on the way home. But not before acting big and bad towards a tiny little terrier at the vet. He had to show off I guess. 🤣🙄He’s sooooo tough!

Rossi is 10 weeks old and has had his second set of vaccines! Soon he will get to discover the big wide world and bird hunting! Here he is with big sister Lily.

8 weeks old! I’m very smart and doing really well with potty training considering I’m still so little!

This old man gave us quite the scare last week when he had a seizure. Not sure if this is his new normal or not, but we sure are thankful he’s still with us and is currently enjoying watching The First 48. We will definitely enjoy however much time left we have with him, and he’s living it up for sure! 💙

Rossi is 6 weeks old and got his first set of shots today. He was a good boy at the vet even though it was a little scary! 🤣

I love this! They love their humans so much!

Judy, a purebred pointer, was the mascot of several ships in the Pacific, and was captured by the Japanese in 1942 and taken to a prison camp. There she met Aircraftsman Frank Williams, who shared his small portion of rice with her.

Judy raised morale in the POW camp, and also barked when poisonous snakes, crocodiles or even tigers approached the prisoners. When the prisoners were shipped back to Singapore, she was smuggled out in a rice sack, never whimpering or betraying her presence to the guards.

The next day, that ship was torpedoed. Williams pushed Judy out of a porthole in an attempt to save her life, even though there was a 15-foot drop to the sea. He made his own escape from the ship, but was then recaptured and sent to a new POW camp.

He didn't know if Judy had survived, but soon he began hearing stories about a dog helping drowning men reach pieces of debris after the shipwreck. And when Williams arrived at the new camp, he said: "I couldn’t believe my eyes! As I walked through the gate, a scraggly dog hit me square between the shoulders and knocked me over. I’d never been so glad to see the old girl!"

They spent a year together at that camp in Sumatra. "Judy saved my life in so many ways," said Williams. "But the greatest of all was giving me a reason to live. All I had to do was look into those weary, bloodshot eyes and ask myself: 'What would happen to her if I died?' I had to keep going."

Once hostilities ceased, Judy was then smuggled aboard a troopship heading back to Liverpool. In England, she was awarded the Dickin Medal (the "Victoria Cross" for animals) in May 1946. Her citation reads: "For magnificent courage and endurance in Japanese prison camps, which helped to maintain morale among her fellow prisoners, and also for saving many lives through her intelligence and watchfulness".

At the same time, Frank Williams was awarded the PDSA's White Cross of St. Giles for his devotion to Judy. Frank and Judy spent a year after the war visiting the relatives of English POWs who had not survived, and Frank said that Judy "always provided a comforting presence to the families."

When Judy finally died at the age of 13, Frank spent two months building a granite and marble memorial in her memory, which included a plaque describing her life story.

Hello! My name is Rossi and I turned one week old this week!

Good morning, world! I’m looking more like a puppy and less like a little fuzzy worm! I have the best puppy breath!

Welcome to the family our newest pup born 1/18/22! Remi had two puppies last night, but unfortunately lost one. We have been praying for one more litter so we could keep a boy. Well, we had hoped for more than 2 pups but at least their bloodline may continue someday. And this little guy is going to be soooo spoiled! Name to come soon.

I don’t know anything about this guy but he’s looking for a home. You’ll have to message the lady that posted. Just wanted to share.

And it’s a pointer!

A UPS delivery driver heard a screaming dog drowning in a pond. He braved the freezing cold waters to save the drowning dog.
