Global Animal Blogging Event (GABE)

Our friend Twinkie is hosting an event to help us meet other animal bloggers around the world. She does a much better job explaining it that we do - see her explanation here.

We'll be an active participant. We're really looking forward to meeting other bloggers :) We will be doing giveaways. At the end we'll draw randomly and there will be one prize for every 25 comments. In your comments please make sure you let us know what kind of doggies, kitteh, etc you have/are so we can tailor our prizes accordingly. It will likely be a mixture of toys, treats and perhaps some handmade blank cards.Grandpa is already groaning. He says any excuse is good enough for Mom to take off to buy doggie stuff. Mom just sticks her tongue out at him. She believes in spoiling the ones you love (and we agree!).

For those of you who have never met us before, we are an odd collection of humans and dogs and one poor lone kitteh collectively known as the Nuthatch Gang. We can be found participating in goofy activities of all kinds as well as conformation shows, field tests, and rescue events. We are mainly German Shorthaired Pointers (GSPs) but there are also a few Siberian Huskies (Mom used to breed Siberians) and a German Wirehaired Pointer (GWP - Willow) and a single kitteh (Squishington). We live in southern Ontario, Canada but if you look hard enough you can find Nuthatch dogs across the USA as well as in Australia. We're like Lays' potato chips - salty bol

We hope you enjoy your visit with us. Please make sure you tell us a bit about your crew so we can make sure to find the right prize if you win and, most importantly, we can satisfy our ever-demanding curiousity. (Don't tell Squish though - there is only the one cat here and no one wants it to get killed except the Siberians and they're not allowed near her.)
