    Is that a lid on your water bowl?
    I’m going to vote for SPCA of York County PA because even though my mom complained during the full 2 years that she lived in York PA, it’s still a wholesome place to raise a family and they need the help.

    Jericho came to live with “the puddle” when someone threw him out of a car near a friend’s house. We have come to love the only dog we know who sheds more than the puddle bassets. Since we don’t know the particulars about Husky rescue, we nominate Carolina Basset Hound Rescue.

    Keep Tails of the Tundra Siberian Husky Rescue in the game for the drawing.

    Keep cool, Kodiak! Only 5 more posts to go, wow! 1,000! That’s awesome – let’s see, I did TOTTSHR, Florida Husky Resuce, so here is my vote for today – The Husky House in NY (http://www.huskyhouse.org/adopt/)!

    Cool drinks of water are great! But, since you all get lots of snow, you should try more swimming in the non-snow months to stay cool year round! That is our Texas husky trick.
    Happy posting!

    looks like nobody better miss with Kodiak’s water!

    We love all the rescues but sending some help to Joplin Humane society seems very timely, indeed!

    Happy, Waggin’ Tails, FUREVER!

    Thanks so much for sharing your contest! Love your husky pics – we have a video on our blog of our husky basking in his kiddie pool – I really didn’t know how much huskies like water!

    Good to meet you – I’m stopping by on the blog hop this morning. Stop by Pet-Peeves.org because you might enjoy my video – “The Bad Dog Blues.”

    You bet! Water is the best. And lots of it on hot days.

    After the disaster in Joplin, I’m sure the Joplin Humane Society could use all the help they can get. Put my vote on them!!

    Kodi found the watering hole! I don’t think he feels like sharing!

    There’s a Winnipeg Human Society? I wonder what you have to do to adopt from them? :P

    We vote for Quad Cities again!

    A nice drink of water is the best especially when you have your very own bowl. :)

    I have to agree with the Kodiak, but I’m not so flexible in my drinking habits. You see… I have OCD, and it takes me an eternity to drink anyway, but it MUST be from a FULL and FRESHLY FILLED stainless steel bowl… Otherwise, I will die of thirst.

    So happy to see the Herd has no problem will mobile drink!

    with love from the Bleu
