I will be in Crestview again tomorrow morning, April 22 with the Animal Justice Rally Group (AJRG).

We will be there in support of two victims - both dogs who died as a result of starvation and neglect.

Aeza Magadia will be sentenced by Judge Ward for the death of her dog, Rosco. She kept him locked in the garage, living in his own filth.  Rosco was seized and euthanized by Crestview Animal Control.  Magadia pled no contest.

Jacoby Jackson has entered a motion to dismiss the cruelty charges against him.  His family dog, Smokey, died of starvation in the backyard. 
Judge Stone will be hearing this motion.

AND tomorrow April 22 is Earth Day!  Of course, every day is Earth Day (just like every day is Mother's Day), but it's an opportunity for all of us to really practice ahimsa, non-harming.  Ahimsa applies to everything - ourselves, other people, other creatures, and the Earth upon which which we exist.  Environmental ahimsa is really selfish - no Earth, no us!  Be selfish - be non-harming to your home.

This is not just a post title! 
Tammy Binkley is working hard to raise money for the charity Off the Mat, Into the World.  This yoga-based charity is based on the principle of seva (selfless service).  This year they have chosen to help children in South Africa who have been affected by HIV / AIDS.

On Saturday, Tammy partnered with Amy Likins at All One Yoga to hold a restorative yoga practice and essentials oils workshop.  We worked together to balance our chakras through asana, pranayama, oils, and chakra tuning forks.  We also worked together to raise money and awareness for Tammy's Seva Challenge.

BIG thanks to everyone who came!

On Saturday, we took Bosey, our foster puppy, to the fairgrounds.  PAWS had their 1st Yard Sale & Adoption Fair that day.  Bosey met lots of people and dogs, but no one seemed interested in adopting him.  Therefore he went back to PAWS, where he waits for his furever family to find him.  We miss him already.  Jojo in particular seemed lonely. 
Cade says Bosey is welcome to come visit for play dates once he is adopted.

When Dan and I were discussing Bosey's return to the shelter, I said "I don't know what I'm going to do with myself if I'm not mopping the floors 3 times a day."  Pepper had been struggling with incontinence for well over a year, and then Bosey took up where she left off.

I may not need to worry so much.  After his bath yesterday, Connor kindly peed on the hallway floor.  He must have known Mommy really missed the mop.
