Take me out to the ballgame
Take me out with the pack
Buy me some peanuts and liver snaps
I don't want to ever go back (to the shelter) 
For it's woof, woof, woof for the home paw
If they don't win it's okay
For it's one, two, three barks your out
At the old ballgame.
~ Porkchop and Penn ~

Porkchop and Penn are in search of their furever homes.
They had a pawtastic time at Turner Field, but sadly after the ninth inning,
these two pawsome pups had to return to the shelter.
 
Porkchop and Penn are at Dekalb County Animal Control
and would love their own fields of dreams.
Please share far and wide for these two sports paws.

For more information on Porkchop, Penn and other dogs available for adoption,

Before announcing the winner of a Dog Tag Art pet tag -

Angels, Blessed, Family, Fulfilled, Cherished, Loved, Balanced, Complete, Adoration, Indebted, Whole, Prosperous, Adorable, Obsessed, Inside, Trusting, Committed, Beloved, Enamored, Connected, Pure Love, Lucky, Inspired. 

Without further ado, here is the process in which a random entry was selected.

Congratulations Patti who used the word balanced to described dogs.

Divas unite!
This week's Tutu Tuesday is dedicated to to the young and the young at heart. 
Props to Grammaline (DogMa's mom) and Kat (DogMa's niece) for sharing the stage with Piggie.
 And for their pawstanding performance.

Tutu'd 76 year old + 8 year old + 3 year old = 
PRICELESS.

Who strapped the family dog to the car roof while the luggage rode inside?
Mitt Romney, that's who!
That's right paws and peeps - Crate-Gate is the bark heard 'round the country this presidential campaign. 
Romney admits to putting the family pooch on the roof for a 12 hour family road trip 
and his wife says they traveled this way all the time. 
DogMa has no words, well actually she has a mouthful, 
but best to let the photo below do the speaking.

Dogs Against Romney is a grasspaws movement lead by the furtastic Rusty,
who is educating the public about Romney's treatment of his pet.
We applaud Rusty and join his efforts in getting the word out.
It's not about Repawblicans or Dempawcrats.
It's about humanity and compassion.

We are Piggie, Bella and Harriet and we approve this message.

My girl Ellie (divadog on the right) loved to dress up. 
Her pal Gracie, not so much. Gracie tolerated the tutu torture for her mom and Auntie DogMa.
I'm so glad she was a supaw good sport - cause this is one of my favorite photos of the glamourpaws.
Not only did they match in markings and color, they matched in spirit too.
This Tutu Tuesday is dedicated to friends furever in our hearts.
