Omar Blue and Charlie "The Charmer"

A good friend and pack member forever, Charlie “The Charmer” is here at K-9 Town. My baby brother, Babee Blue, contacted him for me.

Charlie got his name, The Charmer, honestly. You can’t avoid looking into his eyes. When you do, he can tell if you are sincere, or up to no good. What a gift!

He left K-9 Town after meeting up with the Revell family. He saw that it was love at first sight when Tracy Revell looked into his eyes and he’s been living a spoiled, happy life with them since then.

That rascal. Lol.

He never stays away too long. We’re his family too, and this is his home.

There was a time when we watched over The Charmer just like we do Seers Great Dane Granny and Komondor Rasta Mama. The three of them kept us pretty busy but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Here he is, all ready to go, but waiting for a “special” meal his human Ma, Tracy, was fixing for him.



 
 We had a meeting under the Big Oak Tree early this morning. There are some creatures with bad reputations coming our way, that we haven’t met before. They will get here on Halloween night when the puppies are out handling their fears and Babee Blue and the older pups are out being fearless.

We had some planning to do. We did it.

Keeping our youngsters safe is our only concern. By any means necessary.

The inhabitants of this land know that. The meeting wasn’t about them. We all work together when we are being intruded upon.

 

 

Charlie will be staying until after Halloween so he can get in on the happenings and possibly get to use his unique talents.

 

For sure, the night will be full of surprises.

Hope you’ll join us.

Omar Blue and the Puppies' Clubhouse

Omar Blue



I've just been with the puppies for a while. They're really something. My big weakness.

They're already talking about Halloween.

"We're getting rid of all the spooky, scary things in K-9 Town on Halloween night, starting with Monster Ghost. We're bigger than we were before so we ain't gonna be afraid of him again,"  was the boast.

 





 Hilarious!  Can't wait until Halloween.

Reminiscing now, about when me and my pack were on our way to Iron Dog Land to let them meet my kin. You may recall, the mountain lions were following us, but that's a different subject. (Told by Ma in "Led by an Eagle.")

One night, in route, while relaxing and enjoying our trip, we decided the puppies were being too quiet. Here's what was happening.

 

"It’s beautiful,” said cocker puppy Joe

And the other puppies agreed

"It will make a wonderful clubhouse

 Exactly what we need."

 

 

 

Beagle baby Junior spoke up next

“We’re here for a whole day

We’ll fix our clubhouse up real nice

And have a good place to play."

 

Was Poodle puppy Dumplin’s turn to speak

 

“Let’s gather what we need.”

They all ran out together

Each trying to take the lead.

 

Somehow leader Omar had heard all this

No need to ask just how

He loved overseeing the puppies

Especially times like now.

 

They were always planning something new

Always busy having fun

That’s just the way he wanted it

Their lives had just begun.

 

Soon enough through teaching

They’d have to face this land

Strong, proud, and fearless

With the rest of the pack they’d stand.

 

The puppies had gathered their odds and ends

To make their clubhouse great

The Elders weren’t allowed in there

At the door they’d have to wait.

 

 

 As day went on, dusk came along

They went and joined the pack

They ate then told the Elders

"We’re leaving but we’ll be back."

 

They noticed not an Elder budged

Acted like they didn’t care

Couldn’t they see they were leaving

For their clubhouse waaaay over there.

 

They walked off mighty slowly

It was getting pretty dark

They could hardly see their clubhouse now

Should have left some kind of mark.

 They made it to the front door

But didn’t rush to go in

By now they were very tired

Wanting home and their “real” den.

 

The clubhouse was looking different now

Kind of spooky one might say

How could it look like this now

It was beautiful all day!

 

 They looked around at each other

What were they going to do

They didn’t want to go in there

Then they heard Omar Blue.

 

 

“Sooo!

This is the place you talked about

We weren’t to come in here

That’s right this is your clubhouse

I’ll go to sleep elsewhere.”

 

“No, no leader Omar!!!

We’re not gonna make a fuss

You’re tired and you need your rest

So come lay down with us.”

 

Omar smiling to himself

Said “How very nice of you

If it weren’t for your kindness

I don’t know what I’d do.”

 The puppies smiled at their leader

Then they jumped for joy

No longer feeling tired

What a leader, boy oh boy!

 

 Omar sat and watched them

Until their strength was gone

One by one they came to him

For an empty spot to lie on.

 

 He had told the other Elders

About his evening plans

So they could get in on it too

A pack of puppy fans.

 

 In the morning when the pups woke up

Omar Blue had already gone

Their clubhouse was looking pretty again

What do you think went wrong?

 

Gotta love them! 

 

Hope you enjoyed this excerpt, told in Ma's book, "Led By An Eagle."

 

Thanks for dropping by. Come back soon.

Omar Blue - Louis, Jemma and unbroken bonds

Omar Blue

I'm taking a moment to reflect on what me and my pack have created here at K-9 Town. I'm very proud.

A lot has been going on. An old friend and member of my pack had an emergency.
 
While watching over his outer world family, Louis saw that his beautiful sister, Jemma, is not doing well right now.
 

 

 

She needs to come here, to K-9 Town, so the females can make her feel better, Louis came to tell me.

 

He couldn’t go get her. Like me and some of the others, he crossed Rainbow Bridge to get here. But, he knows Ma can make anything happen.

I contacted her right away.

Louis and Jemma were very close. They rode thousands of miles together with their trucker dad, Mr. Hal. They got to travel while forming a brother/sister bond and handling dad and truck security.

 

 

 

Thanks to Ma, I went to see Jemma. We decided she would let Mr. Hal know that she was going to K-9 Town. He agreed that it would do her good to get away for a while.

Jemma knew he wouldn’t be a problem because she wraps her dad around her little paws whenever she feels the need.

 

 

All in K-9 Town were awaiting Jemma’s arrival but instead of the females, the K-9 Town Seers, Great Dane Granny and Komondor Rasta Mama decided Jemma needed their special care.

I had to insist that they not use any of their potions on her. 

 

“Okay,” they promised.

I’d be paying close attention so Jemma wouldn’t be joining those two in one of their exploits. Lol.

When I finally got her here. I made sure Louis was the first one she saw. She didn’t know he had chosen the excitement and adventures of K-9 Town after crossing Rainbow Bridge. She had no idea he was here.

She was totally surprised!

 

The two couldn’t contain themselves. They were so happy to be together again. It seemed Louis was the cure, but she was still going to see the Seers, first thing.

 

 

Members of my pack later told me that it was a scene they would cherish for a long time. We all agreed that this is what K-9 Town is all about. Caring and doing all we can for each other.

Jemma stayed long enough to fully enjoy the abundance of attention being given to her, and to put her loving brother’s mind at ease.

 

When it was time to say goodbye, Jemma’s face said it all. She knew she had a new family that loved and cared about her and a place to come back to, no matter when, no matter why.

 

During the trip home Jemma told me how elated her dad and mom would be to hear how happy Louis is and that he’s still watching over them.

When we arrived I stayed back, but watched as Jemma approached her home. I wasn’t surprised at all to see Hal and Sheila Jeffery at their front door waiting.

Ma has a way of making stuff like that happen.

When they saw Jemma running to them, the joy they felt was evident. Their baby was home. All was well.

 

Love to all, from K-9 Town. Come back soon!

Omar Blue

 Special thanks to Hal and Sheila Jeffery for letting me tell their story my way.

Please join me in sending hugs and prayers to them and their beloved Jemma.

Thank you.

Ma

Babee Blue, Silvio and the K-9 Town Escapade

I was waiting for my friend, Silvio. He went with me to K-9 Town last weekend. I told him to take the shortcut through the lake. Here he is. Right on time.

 

We were surprised when we saw the K-9 Town females. They hadn’t visited Ma in a while, so it was time to check on her.

Poodle Sophie Jean came in to sit awhile.

Silvio, who had been talkative before her arrival, got quiet at the sight of her. He told me later that his heart stopped beating every time he looked at her. Hahahaha.

 

After Ma went out to greet the others, we were on our way. Silvio was so excited that his heart started beating again. Hahahaha.

As usual, we were surrounded by the pack as we traveled. Our safety always comes first. But guess what happened…...

 

We walked and talked, having so much fun
until we happened to see
that big mean grizzly, Dirty Sam
it’s not our way to flee.

Dirty Sam was relaxing
a big smile on his face
said, “I don’t know what you doing here
but I’m glad you found this place.”

 

Each female looked him in his eyes

but it was Wolfhound Winnie who spoke
“Dirty Sam you better clear outta here
or you’ll see we ain’t no joke.”

Dirty Sam knew Omar Blue’s pack
could call each one by name
so as he thought about his attack
he wondered if he were insane.


There was Wolfhound Winnie
Great Dane Jennie
Shepherd Molly too.

There was Pitbull Margie
Polly the Collie
just to name a few.

He wanted to get out of this
but had to keep his pride
he had to tell them something
to get them on his side.

He told them that his cubs were sick

so he couldn’t stick around

and backed out of this incident

no bruises to be found.

That night at the big supper
Omar Blue had something to say
“We saw you females in the woods
with Dirty Sam today.”

We almost started running
thought better of that real quick
we wanted to see how he’d get away
doggone that bear is slick.”

Omar went on to tell me and Silvio how the females hate when the males interfere. They have earned a reputation of being able to handle themselves very well.

The males abide by their wishes….as long as they aren’t in danger.

I nudged my friend, Silvio. He gave me a cool wink. I could tell he was having the time of his life but it was getting late. Omar and some of the other males were headed towards us. I knew what that meant.

We got Salvio home in no time at all. His Ma, Laurel T. Shaw Leslie, was waiting to hear all about his time at K-9 Town.

Unfortunately, Silvio was very tired and ready to call it a night, while his thoughts of the day were still fresh and would continue into his dreams.

She understood, as all Ma’s do. She knew when he woke up he’d be ready to tell all.

As usual, Ma was waiting up for me too.  She says I lasted about 5 minutes, stretched out, then all got quiet.

What a day!

Babee Blue

Omar Blue and the "Babee Blue is all better" celebration

 



I went and got my baby brother, Babee Blue. I was worried. Ma contacted me. Babee woke up and his back legs weren’t working right. He had hurt himself.

He’s okay now. Ma took him to the vet real fast. Sometimes she moves even faster than me, haha.

When the females here at K-9 Town found out about it they came to see me. I expected them, knowing they wouldn’t be satisfied until they examined Babee themselves.

 

Ma likes hearing what they have to say. She says we can’t be too careful.

 

Babee was excited and ready to go, as usual. He realized all the attention he was about to get, and loved the thought of it.

I tried to keep it from my canine Ma and Pa, Saifon and Nitro. I didn’t want to worry them, but they have a way of finding things out. They came with some of my other kin from Iron Dog Land.

 

Once we were all satisfied that Babee was over his injury, we decided that, and the fact that we were all together again, was a good reason to celebrate. (Ma says we’re always looking for a reason.)



Later, Luther the Bloodhound was howling in rare form under the stars. Some of us joined in, others pranced. It’s hard to be still when Luther starts up.

Babee Blue was hanging with his friends under the watchful eyes of Saifon, the females and me of course.
 

During one of my glances I noticed Babee’s  energy waning. It was time to get him back home to Ma. I had promised her I would when he got tired.

 

When I left them, Babee was giving Ma a detailed account of all the fun he had. I like that.

 

We’re lucky. Whenever Ma misses me too much, she writes about me and my pack and I’m right there with her. Not too hard, because there’s always something going on at K-9 Town. And, nobody can tell our “true tales” like Ma can. Nobody.

 

Come back soon. There’s more.
