If you’ve been around here and read the blog for a while, you know my life is pretty crazy. I’m very flexible and things just fall into my lap. This story is another one of those… Grab a drink, this might be a long story. Last week on Tuesday I look my daughter Kalissa’s boys,… Read More »Meet Sadie…My New Foster Pup
read moreWe have two dogs that have been with our rescue for some time. They are great dogs but need a special home where they can get some TLC to help them feel comfortable. First up we have Brandy. She was released from a breeder back in March. After some checking, we realized she was likely… Read More »Special Dogs at the Rescue
read moreI’ve got some new pups in the house…I guess I should say dogs. There was a note in our group that said they would need fosters for two small golden doodles that would be released from a breeder. We knew nothing about age except that they were adults. No ages…not even if they were male… Read More »New Pups in the House
read moreWell, maybe I shouldn’t say foster pup…maybe more like a foster dog. He’s already four years old. I personally think that is a great time to adopt. Dogs are past the frisky, tear-through-the-house age. They are past the point of chewing on things. They are so much more predictable. Jerry has been a long time… Read More »New Foster Pup: Meet Jerry
read moreI'm late posting because we just had a horrible Ice Storm that knocked out power. More about that next time.
My doggy daycare has been going well. Daughter reports her dogs are tired and put themselves to bed early these days which means they are getting their exercise here. These aren't their real beds...I know one sleeps with Robbie and one with the adults every night. LOL

read moreI may have mentioned before that I knit scrappy wool into table toppers and use them underneath my plant pots. I've learned that wooden tables need protecting from the damp or scrapes that happen (even when sitting on saucers) when used for the plants. Smaller squares knit from prettier wool are good for a coffee coaster too.
To Do This Week...I'm looking after Daughter's dogs, very lovable Abbey and Petey, this week. She is recovering from an exercise injury which seems like such an unfair thing to happen. Ned is in his glee.
I had a few people ask me about my foster pup so I thought would write a blog post and answer some of the questions. I told you that I got a new Cocker Spaniel puppy I’m calling Bianca. Admittedly, it often gets shortened to Bee. So far she has been a harder-to-foster dog. First …
read moreThere was lots of action happening in the dog department last week. First off they had a cancellation at the vet for a dental appointment and I was able to get Susie to the appointment. We were in an ice warning at the time but it was clear here. The vet told me if could …
read moreOn Wednesday of last week, I told you a new foster pup was coming my way. At the time I said I would foster it, I had no information except that it was 10-12 weeks old and some kind of beagle mix. They had included this picture… Since I’ve been fostering, I have… learned to …

It was a bit of a busy, unusual Tuesday for the Kramer crew. Between the kids, grandkids, and dogs, I was hopping. I started my day early. I was scheduled to take care of my grandsons Carver and Anders while daughter Kalissa and husband Craig took Gannon to the genetics appointment for Gannon in Iowa …

read moreI didn’t have a super busy weekend…plenty busy but not super busy. I have my daughter Kelli’s kiddos here on Saturday. I warned her that I had a cold but we both agreed that the kids had remnants of colds as well and we thought we all got if from the same place. From left …

read moreHow can you foster? It’s a question I get all of the time. “How can you let the dogs go? I would get too attached” is another thing I always hear. “I could never let them go” is yet another thing I hear. I’ve been fostering dogs for about six months now. Oh, my word…I …
