Happy National Hot Dog Day!



On the picture you saw to get here, Gracie helped celebrate my sister’s birthday with her own real orange cupcake! We’re also celebrating my sister Kathy’s birthday with small box turtles coming up below as well as small hot dogs like the one pictured left!


What does this hot dog have in common with our tortoise, Big Black Bart? For the answer, SCROLL DOWN…

Bart Competed with a Hot Dog!



Well, that little hot dog and Big Black Bart were both entered into the Woofin’ Paws Pet Fashion Show in Ocean City! We’re so proud of Bart: as you can see, he won 2 Blue Ribbons—1 for Most Unusual Pet, and the other for Best Pet Trick (pushing a barbell) (we’re not making any of this up)!


Now for a celebration of box turtles on my sister Kathy's birthday, SCROLL DOWN…

Missouri’s State Reptile: The Three-toed Box Turtle!



We love three-toed box turtles because our own Turtlesinger turtle, Rocky, is a 3-toed box turtle! But we thank Kathy for sending the picture, left, of a Missouri 3-toed box turtle. The 3-toed box turtle looks quite different from our own New Jersey eastern box turtles.

Missourians Care About Turtles, Too!



Kathy sent us this article from the Missouri Conservationist magazine, which is chock full of helpful and fascinating facts about turtles in her state!


Take a couple of minutes to give it a read and learn more about turtles in another state!

Kathy is so lucky to have these turtles in her yard!



As you read in the article above, Missouri also has the ornate box turtle, another Missouri box turtle different from our New Jersey eastern box turtles.


Just like humans, turtles can look quite different from each other sometimes!


We love this turtle photo and all turtles, and we thank Kathy for sending her Missouri box turtle photos to us.


Again: Happy Birthday, sis!!!


Thanks as always for reading!
