It was a random Thursday, 519 days ago

It was a random Thursday, 519 days ago, when I met, Rocky, “My Little Big Guy”

This is the same park I found him in on November 19th, 2015.

He was frail and sick.

Today he is healthy, happy and an integral part of our family.

Him and I are like peas and carrots.

In the time of forever, I will love him.

Happy Thursday friends.

Poppy Rocky Tuesday on April 4th, 2017

Good morning friends.

Happy Poppy Rocky Tuesday. A day filled with Hope and Possibilities. Remember if the Pops and Rocky can make it, anyone can.

Nobody had the decks stacked more against them than the Pops and Rocky. The odds on them having a good life, were zero. But it happened anyway. Because when it comes to love, hope and faith, the odds just fade away.

I feel like Poppy Rocky Tuesdays is becoming everyone’s favorite day of the week. I Guess we can all relate to being the underdog at times.

OK, being it’s the day of Hope and Possibilities, let’s kick this day off with two positive notions.

1. I was a free man the day I stopped relying on what people thought of me in order to be happy. It’s nice to be well liked. But it’s not a prerequisite for me to like myself.

2. I’m going to give “today” my best — from there, the chips will fall where they fall. Trying to control anyone or anything but ourselves, would be like trying to control if sun rises in the morning. Grab a handle of that reality and you’ll be going with the flow rather than swimming upstream.

Day 815 here in Puerto Rico, and day 503 since we rescued Rocky.

Good morning friends.

Happy Poppy Rocky Tuesday. A day filled with Hope and Possibilities. Remember, if the Pops and Rocky can make it, anyone can. Anytime you’re feeling a little defeated, think of the Pops and Rocky and put the wind back into your sails.

You can use me as a resource as well. Today I live in Puerto Rico with my wife and our 6 dogs. The odds of that happening were zero. But it happened anyway. Love, Hope and faith can trounce any odds.

OK, let’s kick this day off with two positive notions.

1. Today is a gift. Good, bad or indifferent, it’s a gift. We know that because many people that were here with us yesterday, are no longer with us.

2. If you want something to change, you have to change something. What will you do differently today so that tomorrow is not like yesterday ??

Day 801 here in Puerto Rico and day 489 since we rescued Rocky.

Kelly

Good morning friends.

Happy Poppy Rocky Tuesday. A day filled with Hope and Possibilities. Remember, if the Pops and Rocky can make it, anyone can.

So today, Kelly decided to lead us out for Poppy Rocky Tuesday. As many of know, Kelly was rescued off the street as well. She was found living near a college close to Vanessa’s house. Anytime we drive past the college we feel very grateful we got the chance to rescue her.

Once again, another display of love, hope and faith defying all of the odds. Anything can happen on any given day. We just need to keep and open mind and open heart.

Time to Rock the Casbah.

Day 780 here in Puerto Rico and day 468 since we rescued. Rocky.

Can a 10 pound Pomeranian become Potus ?

President's Day

Good morning friends.

A few hundred years ago people said there is No chance a 10 pound Pomeranian could ever be President of the United States.

People also said, “Even if a Pomeranian were to become president, which could Never happen, there is Zero chance he would ever be on Mount Rushmore as one of the Top 4 presidents in history

It goes to show you that hope, faith and love can defy all odds.

Happy President’s day friends.

Caricature of Sammy and Me

Caricature of Sammy & I

Good morning friends.

Every now and again life throws us a little surprise. Well this morning, our new friend, Hect Estela, decided to draw this caricature of Sammy and I.

Some people are so talented. How cool and fun is that ? — Thank you Hect. We love it.

Happy Sunday Funday friends.

Sammy Prefers Blonds

Sammy prefers blonds

Good morning friends.

Sundays are such a family kind of day. Sundays are our favorite morning of the week.

It looks like Sammy agrees considering the big smile on his face. Or is that smile because of the ole expression, “Gentlemen prefer blonds ??

Happy Sunday Funday friends.

Good morning friends.

Happy Poppy Rocky Tuesday. A day filled with hope and possibilities. Remember, if the Pops and Rocky can make it, anyone can.

Nobody had the deck stacked against them more than the Pops and Rocky. Love, faith and hope can trounce any odds.

OK, being today is the day of hope, let’s kick it off with two positive notions.

1. It never feels like the right time, but it’s always the right time to pursue what we love.

2. In order for something to change, we have to change something. Osmosis only works in the movies. In real life, we have to take an action.

Day 759 here in Puerto Rico and day 447 since we rescued Rocky.

Have a great Tuesday friends. Scott Smith for Sammy & Family.
