I have not blogged in so long...Please forgive me!

Hi Everyone;
It has been too long, I am so sorry.  The past two years have been very hard.  Both my parents passed away, after much suffering, within a month of one another.  Bear, my beloved rescued senior Akita, also passed away.  He was so grateful to the vet that gave him the injection he licked her hands until the end.  I was with him, we were in our home and he was surrounded by familiar smells and people and things.  We rescued another Akita shortly there after, from Kentucky.  He was supposed to be about 9 or 10 years old, but turned out to be prematurely grey and in bad shape from being stray for so long.  He was actually 5 years old, heart worm positive and malnourished.  He is now 130 pounds, will flip his food bowl over if he doesn't like what is in there and has actually attacked and bitten the county sheriff.  Yes, I have a felon dog.
In terms of QTTR, we have two new board members, Maureen MacGillavry and Larry Jeffreys, who are great.  We have sent out approximately a dozen quilts per year for the last two years to a variety of both old and new groups.  We are getting ready to send quilts to the South Carolina Cat Rescues, and just sent out quilts to Dachshund Rescue of Florida, and Watermelon Mountain Rescue Ranch in New Mexico.  We also did Ties and Tails of Midland this year, as well as three local events with Bay City No Kill and the Greater Tri Cities Adoption Event.

I hope you are all doing well, and thank you for your support and understanding.
Hugs,
​Roschelle
