So proud of my baby brother, Babee Blue, Esq. - Attorney with Paws

Omar Blue, Esq. - Attorney with Paws

I've told you about me representing mistreated and misjudged dogs when I lived at home with Ma.

My baby brother Babee Blue, has taken up where I left off by aiding those who need our help. I trained him well, hoping we'd get to work together. This is just as good. We keep close eyes on him and will be right beside him if he needs us. We can do that.

Ma won't tell us how we can do what we do. That's her secret so don't ask.

Babee Blue, Esq. - Attorney with Paws

There was a time, when we settled things differently. But Ma convinced me to control myself better because I have to set a good example for my pack.

She made me promise, after we did a pretty wild rescue of some of the puppies that were being mistreated at the time. She witnessed it, unfortunately.

This is how Ma tells what happened that day.....

Omar was complaining because I wouldn't let him out until he put his bones away. I caught him trying to sneak out the back door. I could tell by the way he was dressed in his cap and bling, he was on his way to the hood to see some of his buddies.

"Oh no you don't!" I told him. Bones away first."


Off he went into his room to hide more bones.

I was silently laughing as he walked away. Then it came! One of those sounds that always sends mixed feelings through me. A low bark.


Omar had dashed from his room before I even heard it. "Ma, I'll be right back," he said as he ran by me.


Of course, I ran straight for the window.

 

Oh no! It was Freedom, from K-9 Town, and he was pacing.

 

I love Freedom but he never comes unless there is a big problem. I could tell this was the case from their body language.

 

 

When Omar came back in, he was moving fast. He was no longer my baby boy, he was Omar Blue, pack leader.

 

"I gotta go, Ma," he said. "They got The Dog Called Horse."

 

"Oh no!" was all I could get out.

 

"The Dog Called Horse" was the nicest super large dog you'd ever want to meet. We call him Horse for short.



 

Omar said, "He found a place where little puppies were being abused; instead of waiting for Freedom as they had planned, he went by himself. He got caught and they took the puppies back too.

 

I told Freedom to take some of the K-9 Town pack with him. They'll get the puppies.

 

I'm taking some of the others. We're going after Horse. Don't worry Ma, I'll be back as soon as we get him."

 

Oh my gosh! I had to go too. Maybe I could help. I grabbed my camera (habit) as I called upon my Mojo to work. Thank goodness it did.

 

When I came out of my trance, I was in an unfamiliar place, on a street I'd never seen before. I don't know how much time had passed and I have to admit I was a little afraid that getting home wouldn't be as easy.

 

There were other people on the street, all looking in one direction.

 

It didn't take long to see why!

 

I started hearing dog noises and from around the corner they came! I recognized my K-9 Town pooches instantly, running fast, with The Dog Called Horse in the lead.

 

They had got him! Thank goodness. Like Omar said they would. But now they were being chased.

 

 

I didn't like the fact that Omar was in the very back, knowing what a fast runner he is. But he had told me, that's how he makes sure none of his pack are left behind.

 

Though the rider after them was fast, somehow Omar and his pack out-distanced him. I'd never seen anything like it. Their feet were barely touching the ground as they ran by.

 

After Omar Blue and his pack had passed, I waited until I saw their chaser return without them to call on my Mojo to get me back home. I was trying to be cool but was very relieved when I got back.

 

It was only then that I could look back on what had happened.

 

Wow! What an adventure.

 

Omar came home a little later. His friends dropped him off with his assurance that he would be following shortly.

 

 

When he came in, I asked about "The Dog Called Horse" and the puppies. He said Horse was fine and he had promised he would never do anything like that again. "His heart is always in the right place, Ma, but he's a little hard-headed sometimes."

 

At that, I said to myself, "Look who is talking." 

 

He said the puppies were safe and already enjoying the loving care of the K-9 Town females. We both knew, Freedom and the others would leave no stone unturned until they found the puppies and got them to K-9 Town.

 

As Omar started to leave to catch up with his pack, I jokingly asked, "Weren't you supposed to be putting your bones away?"

  

 

We both laughed out loud, as he broke into a run.

 

I watched, as I always do, as he caught up with the others, on that path behind my house that somehow leads to K-9 Town. They were whooping it up, talking about what they had just done, then they were gone....

Omar Blue and the Misjudged Females

Welcome back, everyone.

 

 

I brought my baby brother Babee Blue back to K-9 Town so we could celebrate his birthday. He’s two years old now. Time sure goes fast. Handsome little devil, isn’t he.

We partied until sundown. I could see Babee was getting tired so I asked him what he’d like to do next. He surprised me.

He said no one had told him how we protected the females from the timber wolves when they came to start trouble.

Protect the females!

We all exploded with laughter at the thought. When we settled down we knew what was next. Our favorite pastime.

It was story time.

I realized I hadn’t given Babee the full picture of K-9 Town living. He told us what he knew about the timber wolf invasion. I continued from there, starting with the first interaction between the K-9 Town females and the timber wolf females…. 

After the K-9 Town females discovered they were being watched by the timber wolf females, Pitt Bull Margie took on the task of finding out how many female wolves there were. Knowing the land made this easy and she was back in no time at all. Once she returned with the count, they decided how they would handle the intruders, and went back to planning the celebration of Wolf Bennie Ba and Wolfhound Winnie’s future togetherness, while taking turns as lookouts.

The K-9 Town females have been in their fair share of battles, with and without the males. They’ve achieved the respect of the wilderness animals on their own through courage and loyalty to each other.

If the wolves only knew these dogs had been waiting for something like this to happen since they left Omar’s kin at Iron Dog Land. Omar’s Ma, Saifon and some of his female kin had taught them new battle strategies. They were dying to test them, though they might use a little more restraint than the Iron Dogs would. Maybe.

Other animals would call them prima donnas, if they knew the words, but only until they saw the beasts surface from within. They were a vicious bunch, but only when made to be. Other than that, they were as loving and carefree as could be. They loved the lives they were living and knew there was no place else like K-9 Town, their home.

Unfortunately, female timber wolf leader Hanna, and the females with her, knew nothing of this. So, like Shocka Din and the males, they walked into more than they bargained for.

They walked boldly towards the K-9 Town females. No plan, just intending to start trouble.

The dogs went silent as they entered, looking at them but not one of them made a sound.

Easy prey, the wolves thought.

But when they were about 10 feet from face to face, it happened. Up jumped every one of the K-9 Town females. With the quickest moves they had ever seen, Hanna and the others were surrounded. Not as a group but each of them encircled by at least three savage dogs, before they could protest in any way.

Since it was Wolfhound Winnie’s attention getting that they were interrupting, she felt it only right that she should be spokes-dog.

It was obvious that Hanna was leading the group. She was the only one still standing proudly, whereas the others were rightfully showing fear. Winnie directed her hot temper and cold words at her.

“What was your plan,” she asked. “Besides thinking you would come into our home, disrespect us and possibly even do physical harm!”

Hanna said nothing but could feel the tension rising in the dogs surrounding them. She knew she had to do or say something before they became the victims of this suddenly unrecognizable group.

“Do you think it is fair to surround us three and four to one, no matter what our intentions. One on one would prove you are brave and fearless females,” said Hanna.

“We’ve already proven that and we don’t need to repeat ourselves,” said Winnie. I’ll tell you up front, we are no longer fair to our enemies or others who wish to do us harm. We outnumber you so we can make small work of you in the least amount of time. We’re busy and don’t want to be bothered by you!”

Hanna’s thinking was exactly as Shocka Dins when facing Omar Blue and the males. This was so unexpected. Now, she just wanted to get her and the others away from these dogs.

Luckily, one of the others gave them an out.

It was Afghan Bee Bee who spoke. “Come you all, leave them here. They’re no threat to us. Let’s get back to our planning.”

The K-9 Town females looked at each other in agreement and to Hanna’s amazement dismissed them like they were nothing, without another word, turning their backs to them and walking away.

The timber wolves walked a few yards, then turned and looked back. They saw the K-9 Town females were back where they had begun; looking like the prima donnas they had wrongly thought them to be. It was as though they had never been interrupted. They knew Hanna and the others were watching them, but they didn’t care.

Given the signal, the puppies ran out from their coveted hiding place to their mommies. If those bad timber wolves had hurt their mommies they were going to go catch them and make them so sorry by killing them or something. Then they would take them to their papas so they could bite them up.

Fortunate for those wolves, the puppies didn’t find a scratch anywhere so without second thoughts, off they went to continue playing the day away.

At this point, Babee Blue was stretched out, eyelids heavy, being cuddled by a few of the females.

His last words before dropping off to sleep were, “Just think, I would have been with the puppies. I’m two years old now. Don’t worry, I’ll protect you from now on.”

That being said, he closed his eyes and travelled to dreamland with a big smile on that handsome little face.

My baby brother.
