A Mastiff-sized Undertaking

Kim Bloomer
Albuquerque, NM - Sept 2006

What a month September has been! With brand new guests who shared their diverse backgrounds and expertise to a mastiff-sized undertaking with the 1st Annual Online Dog Expo, Animal Talk Naturally has been busy.

We began our month with new guest Penny Leisch, Pets by Penny. Penny is an author, photographer, and a very active rescuer of primarily dogs and cats but she has done some work with horses also. Penny was traveling during the Online Dog Expo so she pre-recorded a session for us to include which was amazing considering she was packing and then moving right afterwards! Just goes to show how dedicated to helping our animals some people are no matter if they receive anything in return or not! We enjoyed having Penny so much she’ll be back in January to share with us again only we’ll be talking with her specifically about cat rescue this time. [Read more →]

All About a Horse

Kim and Shadrach Bloomer

Shadrach and I wanted to share with you the sad news we received this week and it’s all about a horse. Here is what I shared with an online group I belong to today (I don’t have a photo of this special horse scanned in yet so I’ll be using our friend Deirdre’s special horse Noche for illustrative purposes because he reminds me of Rogue):

Noche having his first bath

I got some really sad news yesterday but not unexpected. My best friend here in NM is a country girl, always has several dogs and cats around and of course horses. She is always saving some animal, just like Leigh and many of you on this list.She and I have been best friends since 1979, whew! When I met her, her horse, Rogue, was 7 years old. This last week he was put down at age 34 and he is buried on their property. I am so sad because I didn’t get to say goodbye to him -they live in a city about 3 hours away now. I can’t stop thinking about him and all his antics…he thought he was a big dog LOL! My friend, Connie, owned his mom and foaled him herself. So she had him from the day he was born.

Rob’s vision has surpassed all of my expectations,” states Thomason. [Read more →]

A Heart for Change… Ron Hevener

Ron Hevener

There was something about him that stood out from the time he was born. Experienced breeders know what it is, but they can’t always explain it to those uninitiated in the ways of Nature. Suffice it to say, there was a quality about him that could, if the gods smiled and all went well, make him a star.

Shadrach the Neo Mastiff Top Dog

I’m a Top Dog of America, YIPPEE! Yep, I made it into the American Dogs of Distinction book and I did it fair and square, WOOF! This is a Special Edition show of Animal Talk Naturally! We have Founder of American Dogs of Distinction, Jill Lanese, with us on this show. I think I’m in love with all her girl dogs, hehe, but especially Crystal, WOOF! Jill talked with Mom and Jeannie about DOGS, my favorite subject! They talked about all the good things we dogs do for society -especially since mainstream media only wants to talk about the bad things we do (and they NEVER say how it is YOU humans who make us bad either). ALL dogs are good if given a chance, sigh. Oh this was a positive, fun and upbeat show with LOTS of information. The good news is Jill will be with us during the upcoming Online Dog Expo also, YIPPEE! She’s gonna be hanging out with Jeannie a LOT too but you’ll have to listen to find out ALL the details, hehe. So here is the synopsis for our Special Edition show:
