Upon reflection, food is also the way to Nemo's heart, just like his paw-rents. He loves chicken and beef and he definitely loves peanut butter! Actually, we're fairly confident Nemo would trade us for even the scent of a chicken nugget :P Nemo thanks you tremendously!!

Dani's work from home office is just about complete, but her chair is missing the part where Nemo is supposed to sit so they've been sharing lately. We need to get him his own chair for all his hard work and midday snoozes!

Speranza is a wonderful rescue that was able to care for Nemo getting him life-saving treatment along with lots of love! They help many other dogs (and other animals) on their farm with a team of dedicated volunteers. I will submit your donation with their next fundraiser.

Thank you for the delicious meal! We'll be playing a game of sushi roulette with one of our meals of sushi, where one of the pieces will have wasabi hidden inside! :o

Turns out food is the way to our hearts! Thank you for your gift towards some tasty meals on our trip!

Thank you for spoiling our bestest boy! He will be bounding after new bouncy balls and loves tearing apart any toy with a squeaker :)
