Welcome to Thursday’s Barks and Bytes.
Before I get into what I am thankful for this year, I’d like to let you all know, I am once again participating in the Advent Calendar for Dog Lovers hosted by Kol’s Note and joined by Dogthusiast, NEPA Pets and Wag ‘N Woof Pets. If you haven’t heard of this, it’s a 24 day EXTRAVAGANZA. Check back here beginning Monday where I will have details for each day’s prize.
Some amazing prizes here.
This year I’ve tried to life my life with gratitude. It hasn’t always been easy and there are many days where I don’t think about it until bed time, but when I lay down to sleep, I try to think of 10 things I am grateful for for that particular day.
First and foremost I am thankful for my family. I am also thankful for my dogs and my friends. I have a decent home and a decent job and I’m grateful for those as well.
I’m grateful I live in a country where I have freedom of choice and freedom of speech and I’m truly grateful for the men and women who sacrifice so much to allow me those freedoms.
I’m grateful that Sampson has recovered well from his ACL surgery and I had the opportunity to snap some photos of him and Delilah playing the other day.
I’ve got the toy!
The woof you do!
Hah, I got it back!
Long time readers know that my daughter served in the United States Army following in her father’s footsteps. Both my nephews have served, two of my cousins have children serving now. My father served, two of my uncles served and countless others who I love dearly have made the sacrifice as well. I’d like to thank all who serve(d) and remind YOU
Say a prayer for our service men and women today.
Our wish for you today is really no different than our wish for you every day. That you are surrounded by everything you love, that you are healthy and happy.
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, from all of us at Heart Like a Dog.

In order to be fair to all participants Linda and I ask you to please use the linky list. If your blog does not support a linky list, please link back to either Linda or I.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, too, my friend!! Love the pix of the pups playing! And I, too, am grateful for all those who have served in our nation’s armed services. My Dad served in the Merchant Marine, and my uncle in the Navy, during WWII; my brother served in the Coast Guard for 40 years, and my cousin was an Air Force nurse for several years.
Happy Thanksgiving!!! <3
Happy Thanksgiving! I am grateful for many things in my life, including the service members who give so much of themselves!
Glad to hear Sampson has recovered and is thriving. Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!
What wonderful sentiments, Jodi. You have a family to be proud of! I’d like to thank them all for their service as well, and it’s a good thing to keep all those serving in mind today. We certainly wouldn’t have all that we do without them.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family from all of us!

Wonderful things to be thankful for, especially all those who have served to protect our country. Happy Thanksgiving.
I hope you have a lovely day, filled with fun and friends!!
Your attitude of gratitude has inspired me. So I guess one thing I’m thankful for is your regularly reminding me to be thankful.
Oh, and for some really adorable pictures of Sampson and Delilah playing.
Hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving.
Wow, look at those dogs! I really wanted to have a dog with me, but the building doesn’t accept animals. Too bad 🙁 Btw I accidentally found your blog and I like it! keep it up Jodi 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!
What a great post! I didn’t know your daughter served! Bless her and everyone else. My dad served in the Army too. Can’t wait for the advent calendar, glad you are doing it again.
Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. It is important to thank our service members for their sacrifices.
