After a short leave from my volunteer work with mom I'm back at it again!! Mom had some health issues herself that she had to deal (along with a bunch of other stuff!!) so my job was to take care of her for a few months. She tells me I get an A+++!! :) But now it's time for me to get back to work!
We are back volunteering as a Pet Partner team in hospice and we got our latest 'assignment'. My new friend 'M' has breast cancer and mom says she's getting weaker and weaker so we need to go visit her as soon as possible. She hears that 'M' loves chocolate and pies so guess what ... we're going to bring her some yummy chocolate when we go visit with her. Mom tells me we can go on Saturday so i'm resting up right now for my big day back to work.
Big hugs to all of you from nung-nung.
Ahnung (pronounced ah-NUNG) is a rescue dog from Red Lake reservation. Her name means "star" in ojibway. A survivor of neglect and abuse, she is the north star for many ... teaching compassion, love, forgiveness and resilience. Ahnung is a registered therapy dog through Delta Society and volunteers with at-risk youth, in hospice and with cancer patients.

Happy Valentine's Day!!
Mom tells me it's Valentine's Day today ... I tell mom it should be Valentine's Day every day, why just today? Shouldn't we always love each other? Shouldn't we always be nice to each other? Shouldn't we always give lots of hugs and kisses to each other (and for you humans, yes you can give each other chocolate too!! Hey, I like chocolate too but mom tells me it's not good for me and my tummy or my body so I guess i'll take her word on it) ...
So today, like every other day of the year ..... do what we should be doing every day of the year ...

Unconditional Love ...
Mom and a Pet Haven fellow volunteer/friend have been going to the Pet Haven adoption events and taking photos. This past weekend they got photos of my friends (yes both dogs and cats!!).
Valentine's Day is around the corner and mom wanted to create a video to highlight my sweet friends who are still waiting for that special person(s) who will open up their heart and their home. In case you don't know, we (and I speak on behalf of all dogs and cats .... yes, I have been given the authority to do so!!!) love unconditionally. We love our humans no matter what. We don't care if you've taken a shower, if you stink (if fact, we like that better!), if you haven't brushed your hair or your teeth, if you're feeling sad (in fact, we'll come snuggle up next to you). We can also be your best teachers --- teaching you to live in the moment, to play, to rest and get LOTS of sleep.
If you have a few minutes, watch this video that mom created ... and help us spread the word about all my homeless friends who are still waiting to find a home of their very own ....
oh ... and for Valentine's Day don't forget to give your furkids an extra treat!!! :) But NO chocolate even if we ask for it!!! :)
