I was about to post some pictures of me goofing off with the family, when Roo saw this post. DOGGIE HEROES FTW!!!!!!!!!!

Warning: The following story is so heartwarming it may melt your computer or mobile device.

A 10-year-old boy with Down syndrome reported missing in Hackleburg, Ala., on Tuesday was found on Wednesday morning along a creek near his home with a pair of puppies that rescue workers believe kept him warm overnight.

The boy, Kyle Camp, went missing Tuesday afternoon, his family said. Police, firefighters and as many as 150 volunteers launched an air-and-ground search that lasted well into the night, covering several square miles, Marion County Sheriff's Dept. officials said, and resumed early Wednesday morning.

Jamie Swinney, one of the volunteers, told WAFF-TV that he followed the Camp family's dog along the creek and discovered the boy in thick with the dog's two puppies at about 9:30 a.m. Wednesday.

"I heard the dogs barking again and followed him down there and started hollering for the puppies and I hollered for him and he hollered back," Swinney said. "He was in the creek about a half a mile over the ridge."

According to WAFF, the boy was found wet and without shoes, and officials "think the puppies kept him warm overnight."

The boy was treated for minor injuries at a local hospital and was released.

Baby and Mr. and Miss Celery

I just got this picture of my favorite nephew with Mr. Celery. Clearly, he's already a dedicated Rocks fan. With this newest generation, world domination is within our grasp. muwahahahahahahahahaha

Well, that accounts for the baby and Mr. Celery in the post title, but WHO is this Miss Celery?!! Oh, Roo says it's "miscellany" not "miss celery".

Anyway, I'm feeling much better, thanks to my medicines. Just to clarify, since one or two of you were confused about this, I do get full meals with my medicine. I'm not trying to survive off of cheeseblocks. :)

Grams, I hope your cold gets better! Thanks for hanging out with us yesterday!

Love and wags,

Rosie<3

MORE cheeseblocks

So, yesterday I seemed a lot better than I had been Friday and Saturday.  This morning, however, I relapsed. So Owl took me to the vet. The vet decided that either I have a messed up spinal disk, or have inflamation, or an infectious inflamation, so they put me on pain medicine, anti-inflammatory, and a N-SAID.
Are you ready for my new medicine and food schedule. I like the fact that I get 3 meals a day now.
6AM- Acidophilus for my tummy, so I hopefully won't get an upset stomach.
7AM- BREAKFAST! antibiotic, muscle relaxant, pain medicine
2PM- Acidophilus
3PM- DINNER!! anti-biotic, muscle relaxant, pain medicine, N-SAID
11PM- snack, anti-inflammatory

My three o'clock meds (note the pills in cheese)

Don't I look pathetic?

Love and (sickly) wags to all,

Rosie <3

Do you have any of these symptoms?

Do you or someone you love suffer from Lymes disease, ear infections, or any other disease treatable by antibiotics? If the answer to this question is yes, then you might be a candidate for cheeseblocks. Cheeseblocks is a new medicine scientifically proven to cure all these illnesses and more. Ask your doctor if cheeseblocks are right for you. Talk to your doctor about other medications you maybe taking.  Do not stop taking cheeseblocks without talking to your doctor.
Cheeseblocks are not for everyone. If you are allergic to dairy, you should not take cheeseblocks. Side effects include: nausea, vomiting, headaches, insomnia, weight gain and death. Some users reported increased susceptibility to bubonic plague.

(PLEASE note that this is a spoof. Cheese is not a replacement for antibiotics or other medicines. None of these side effects are actually known to be caused by cheese. PLEASE remember that your source for pet health information should be your vet, not a random, largely humorous blog written by a Bernese Mtn. Dog. ~Ed.)
LOVE,
ROSIE <3

Cheeseblocks!!!!!!!!!!

WooHoo! The vet said that I need cheeseblocks!!!!!! My Lyme's appears to be acting up again and that means cheeseblocks! 4 times a day! Because the funny little crunchy things inside the magic cheeseblocks upset my tummy I have to take tummy medicine, which is another set of cheese blocks, (Ed.'s note: She just takes a normal OTC human acid controller.) an hour before my meal and magic cheeseblocks. Since I eat twice a day and get the magic cheese blocks twice a day, this means I get 4 cheeseblocks a day!!!!! Yipppeeeeee!!!!!!! It's going to be a great month!!!!!!!!

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX,
WWFN!!!!!!
Rosie the Cheeseblock Eater

Sick:(

I'm not feeling well today. The family isn't sure what's up, but I'm very draggy and mopey, and I haven't been begging. Those of you who have ever eaten here know what that means. :) Roo's thinking maybe it's my lymes acting up, because I'm kinda stiff and limpy.  On the bright side, I'm not sick enough to refuse treats.:)

WWFN,

Rosie the sickly puppy who needs treats to get better.

The pigs are our brothers

Once again, the family had pork for dinner. I was, naturally, greatly distressed by this, because, as the founder of the The Pigs Are Our Brothers foundation, I abhor the consumption of these animals*. Once again, I am going to share my protest song. Please sing it wherever pork is sold.
The pigs are our brothers. We should not eat them.
Los cerdos son nosotros hermanos. No deberíamos comerlos.
Les porcs sont nos frères. Il ne faut pas les manger.
Mae'r moch yn ein brodyr. Ni ddylem eu bwyta.
Grisarna är våra bröder. Vi bör inte äta dem.
Svínin eru bræður okkar. Við ættum ekki að borða þá.
Porci, fratres nostri sunt. Non debemus comedunt eas.
And, of course, in the great language of all pigs, Pig Latin
E thay igs pay are ay e our ay others bray. E way ould shay ot nay eat ay em thay.

Ou thay alt shay ot nay eat ay e thay igs pay, or fay e thay are ay our ay others bray. (Thou shalt not eat the pigs, for they are our brothers.)

*Of course, I probably wouldn't care if I weren't allergic to them. BUT WE CAN FORGET ABOUT THAT LITTLE DETAIL.

PS- Pooh, why doesn't Google Translate have an Elvish option? Since it doesn't, would you mind translating this into either sort of Elvish. *ducks* Please, forgive me for using Google Translate. I wouldn't use it if I had to translate anything important. I totally understand that nothing can replace a thinking human being manually translating something. :)
PPS- does this post feel like a Paschal church bulletin to anyone else? :)
