TGIF!!!!!
I cannot believe we are already in December; this year has gone too fast I think but praying 2022 will be a good year for all.
Today is National Mutt Day – This special day is celebrated twice a year, Dec. 2, and July 31. The days help to raise awareness of the plight of mixed-breed dogs in shelters. There are millions of smart and healthy mutts in shelters just waiting for someone to give them a forever home.
There are so many sitting in shelters waiting for homes it is heart breaking and instead of buying from a breeder go down to the shelter and rescue one, mutts are the best, the love unconditionally and I personally think they are grateful daily for having that chance of a home.
Layla is a rescued mutt, and I would not change it for anything in this world and will always rescue.
As most of you know the past week has been Hanukkah, the festival of lights, for 8 days we light candles, eat latkes and donuts and oily food to remember the miracle of them thinking the oil would last for one day but it lasted for 8 days. So as we celebrate that miracle, I each night when lighting the Hanukkiah I pray for a miracle for all the homeless dogs and cats sitting in shelters waiting to be rescued and adopted.
They do not have a voice, so we need to speak out for them to save their lives.
So, on this note lets all pray that shelters will empty and 2022 will be a better year for all those mutts in shelters
Have a wonderful week all, be safe and hug your furry babies
With love from
Layla
Happy Hanukkah! And happy December,and Friday too! I didn’t know that today was national mutt day – very cool. Layla is looking adorable, as always.
Thank you Michelle for the compliment and Hanukkah greetings. I love they have a special day for the mutts as it is so important
Layla, I hope you enjoy those special treats and we wish you a most wonderful Hanukkah! Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Hi Brian, thank you so much for the blog hop as always. Layla loved the treats and we had a wonderful Hanukkah, thank you
We say the same about every day should be Love Your Cat Day – But I guess one day reminds those who are busy, or rushed, that the dog in their life really matters enough to treat them!
So true Marjorie plus it brings attention to all the mutts sitting in shelters waiting for homes
What a great day – National Mutt Day! Perfect day for all the best rescue pups, like your Layla and my Henry. Your Latkes for Dogs recipe looks like a recipe I should try for Henry.
Happy Hanukkah and I hope you and Layla had a great time celebrating National Mutt Day!
Terri the latke recipe is awesome and I am sure Henry will love them. I so agree the rescued pups need a special day for them plus remind everyone to adopt not shop as so
many are sitting in shelters waiting for homes
Happy Hanukkah! And happy national mutt day!!!! I agree, mutts are the best dogs ☺️
Thanks Tiffany and yes Mutts rock
Layla is such a cutie! Happy Mutt Day and Happy Hanukah! I’m hoping that 2022 brings a lot of happiness to everyone, especially homeless pets!
Beth thank you and I am hoping the same, that shelters will empty and all pets will have homes
