Hi Z’sters,
Just a moment to announce that I have adopted a shelter dog to be a brother to my sweet, beautiful Bailey! He comes from the Orange County (NC) shelter, and Bailey was at the Chatham County shelter. I am still working on names, but am leaning toward “Smudge”. He only weighs 25 lbs and is estimated to be 5 years old, though my vet thinks he could be a little younger. He is black with a small white spot on his chest, and he has somewhat wiry hair. Bailey and he are doing very well together. This little terrier mix barks at Bailey which confuses her, I think. Just brought him home yesterday afternoon. He seems to be a quick learner. He feels a bit intimidated by Bailey since she towers over him and weighs 57 lbs, but she is being very good with him.
Lots of Hugs and Love
Max
Nice story. Best wishes with the new family member. This dog lucked out.
Judy Berube from Rhode Island
Dear Marshall:
Good luck with your new Sweetie. He is a lucky pup to have found you. Love and Hugs to you, Bailey and Smudge, JB and LM
Rosemary McCauley
Congratulations on your new addition to your family. You have saved two lives and made yours more enjoyable for years to come.

Wonderful, Marshall. Welcome home, Smudge, lucky pup.
Wiggle, wags, slobbery kisses to all.
Bless you my sweet neighbor.
Mary Margaret in Georgia
Congrats to you, Bailey, and Smudge.

Congratulations on your new family member, Marshall & Bailey. He sounds like a real cutie! Thank you for choosing a shelter dog. May you have many happy years together! love, Donna, Amy & Cappy

Sheena and lovers of older horses. Bashboy with shorty aboard won the Australian Grand National in good form. Bash is 12 years old, a beautiful looking horse, and tough as they come. He was very proud of his victory. He looked like he was smiling. This is a magnificent win.
Judy Berube from Rhode Island
Congrats Bashboy. Way to go. Love and Hugs, JB
Ann NC
Congrats to Bashboy. Showing those young uns how it’s done! Smart boy!
Marshall (NC Broad)
Way to go, Bashboy! 12 years old and still going strong; what a wonderful horse.
Big congratulations!
Hugs

Dear Max.You rise far earlier than me,I have just found out about the short guy and Bashboy!!Australia’s answer to Red Rum.A fabulous win for Shortie!Between the Ashes yesterday and Ruby there must be some woeful faces in Australia today.Very excited for all.Sheena
Tizgood
Dear Sheena
Just read Ruby is going to the Australian Grand National to ride a horse
they were going to send to jump in the UK. They want Ruby’s opinion and
they may send him. All are excited to have such a prestigious jumps jockey
come there.
Love and hugs
sheena.davies(wales)
Dear Max.I have just watched the replay What a horse!Such testing ground.I had heard the connections had once thought of sending him over for our Grand National remember Crisp in 73′.He was a huge chaser and jumped the fences as if they were hurdles.There’s been a huge buzz about Shortie’s visit to Australia! congratulations to Bashboy and Shortie.Sheena.
Max
It was a fabulous race. Bashboy was sailing over those fences. He might do well in the UK because he jumps to the right. Ruby said that the regular jockey gave him a full briefing on what to do. Bash gave his all. Very courageous racer. Love some of the names of the other horses. King of Dirt is a good one.

Conversation does not reflect the grand training our mothers and grammar teachers hoped we would remember. But we are aware that when we say “ain’t,” it ain’t right. Frequently, those little words express what we want to say better than what is considered correct.
Why is it that we notice these things when dozens of vulgar and offensive words are used without anyone showing surprise. Maybe people are not aware that words are creative and shape who we are-coarse and without polish or gentle and caring. We have a responsibility to keep ourselves clean and it begins with our words.
The mental capacity of the Indian is of superior order.

After seeing Honor Code who is one of my favorite horses win the Whitney and the Met mile I am thinking that American Pharoah should not be complacent coming home in the last furling of the Classic.
What a race that is going to be if all is well with both horses.
Honor Code reminds me of Zenny coming from the clouds so far back and eating up the ground.
He would be a good match for her in the future, I hope being a ridgling does not affect his ability to breed.
Donna
Tizgood
Dear Donna
What a great race the Whitney was, Honor Code came barelling down with
fast fractions to over come Liam’s Way, who set fractions consistently of 22 and
change. Not sure AP has consistently run that fast and LW ran that fast the whole
way with out giving an inch. Maybe the older guys are pretty good. Will have to see.
Love and hugs
Mary Margaret in Georgia
Donna, If I remember correctly Honor Code’s daddy was a ridgling and look what AP Indy has done for TB’s. Take care, Mary Margaret.
Sue Fredrick Happy as a lark
Hi all Zsters,
Just saw this new post and had to drop in and see the boys. Handsome devils they are. I wish JS would get those stall balls especially for CoZ he just loved his as LE when he was younger. They both look awesome.
Donna, I had the same thought about Zenny and HC having a future date. Daddy Indy is a ridgling and it never stopped him from producing many babies. Dottie had originally wanted Indy for Zenny so this might be a possibility. What an amazing race he ran, I couldn’t believe he could make up all that ground and win. One has to wonder if he had been able to race in any of the TC races if history would have been different.
I’m also very happy for Cavorting and Stonestreet and Bernie. His babies have been doing well lately.
Love to mama Zen, CoZ, Zi and angel Princess, and congrats and kisses to proud papa Indy.

Dear Donna, Sweet Sue and Z Fans:
Fabulous win by HC yesterday; in Z Style. Love and Hugs, JB
Ann NC
Great win by HC and making up 18 plus furlongs! Wow, Zenny style for sure!
Congrats to him and Liam’s Way, great racing!
Ann NC
Hahaha, that is lengths, hahaha. Now that would be a race! Oh brother.
Anyway, what a race, HC, congrats and thanks for the thrilling win.

Dear Sheena,
All were excited to have Ruby in Australia, so glad they won. Wonder what
Ruby thought of Bashboy?
Love and hugs

Dear Tizgood.Ruby was more than happy with Bashboy.A historic win for them.Ruby has,of course, won all the Grand Nationals over here.The English,Scottish, Welsh, Irish now he has the Australian to add to his CV.Hugs Sheena.
Tizgood
Dear Sheena,
Just read the article in the post, what a great win, love the photo of him almost falling
off. Those guys have such great balance and coordination, don’t know how he stayed
on. He has won so many GN. What a great horse, will he come to the UK?
Love and hugs
Tizgood
Dear Sheena,
Just saw the video of the AGN, Bashboy is one tough horse just like all great
jumps horse and a gorgeous light bay my favorite color. What a great GN. What
a great ride by Ruby, weaving in and out, such great balance, so envious of their
riding skill, just top notch riders.
Love and hugs
Donna

I have heard one of Cecil’s cubs has been killed by a Lion trying to mate with it’s mother.It seems Jericho has deserted the pride now and they are all in danger.There are new lions on the prowl now. Hope Walter Palmer IS HAPPY!!!!Sheena.
