Everyone knows this dog luvs Adopt-a-thons!  So no big surprise that Travelin' Jack showed up at New Mexico's Big Daddy of them all----
!
It's just the BIGGEST and BESTEST Adopt-a-thon of the year in New Mexico!

Over 40 shelters from around the state showed up...with lots of critters....ready to head to their new FURever homes!  LOTS of 2-footed folks came to the event too!  And I, Travelin' Jack was there to give a dogs-eye view to the whole shebang AND raise some bucks for the pups (and kitties too!).  

 I was strollin' around the site...takin' in all the sites and sounds (talk about a barking good time! WOOF!) when when what do I dog-spy... 

                                                        
.....but some very crazy looking creatures.....Blue Mew and Red Ruff!  But don't dog-spair..they're OK guys....just the mascots for Petco...the Dog-Dandy Sponsor of Fetch-a-palooza! These two giant sized critters were makin' the rounds Meetin' & Greetin' peoples and dogs and just everybody 2 & 4-footed!  Good job guys!  You are A-OK in my dog-journal! 


But continuin' my moseying...who else did I run across?  None other than the BIG Boss of the Albuquerque City Shelter....Director Barbara Bruin!  She's one of my all-time favorite peeples because she helped me adopt Oscar my cat-brother!  Luv Oscar....and Luv you, Miss Barbara for hookin' me up with my feline bestest buddy!
Yep..there were many grand things to check out....like this sweet little Bully Gal here!  Howdee-doo,  Sweety Pie...I do dog-think I'm in LUV!
There were dogs everywhere! Even Volunteers walking dogs awaitin' their families comin' to adopt them.  This little guy was being walked by one of the HUNDREDS of oh-so-grand volunteers who give from their heart and donate their time to the animals.  A DOG-ZILLION THANKS to each and every one of you good folks! 
                                             
What kinds of adoptable pets were at Fetch-a-palooza, you ask?  Well there were cute dogs of all sizes, shapes and colors...like this little American Bulldog beauty..... 
                                    and kitty kats of all colors too...like these sweet balls of fluff! 

                                                         
Yup-pup...It was one DOGGONE grand AFFAIR of the FUR!  Not only was it fun but there were OVER 500 animals adopted out to their new wonderful FURR-ever Families! In just 2 days!  YAHOO!  That is one dog-dandy big deal!

Flicks...'N.......Tricks....'N.....Books.....'N.....Other Good Things!

Travelin' Jack here......and I've got some doggone grand things to bark about today!  Never a dull moment in this dog's life...and here are a few things that are comin' down in the world of Travelin' Jack.....

                                                                                FLICKS

 We all know I am one bully of a TV hound, right!?!  And also....that my FAV TV star gal is none other than Nikki Stanzione!    Easy to see why I'm in dog-love with her, eh? 
Here we are on the set of " New Mexico Style" TV show on KASA Fox 2, talkin' about dog-portant Easter happenings.  And of course...I gotta get some licks in too!  MWAH!  Here's one for you too Jill!
Now...CLICK this
for my dog-personal interview!
I just LUV this TV show!  And stay tuned...more fun planned for the near future with the good folks at "New Mexico Style" too!


                                                                        TRICKS
                                             
                                                                             VOILA! 
                                                   From bulldog to Bunny  Rabbit! 
Easter time is time to head out to Hinkles Family Fun Center for their annual EASTER EGGstravaganza!  And that is Just what this dog did!  I dog-magically transformed into a 'bully-bunny' to greet...and of course kiss...and hand out lollipops to the kids!  WoW!  Lots o fun! Of dog-course this pup was workin' the crowd for the 'bucks for bones' program (my little name for fundraising for our animal shelters).  This event we raised $$ s  for Luvin' Labs Rescue organization. 

....AND if you check out the Hinkle Family Fun Center website....you'll see some photos of me at the event! 
 Check out this sweetie...who gave me a smile and a pat on the back.  RUFF job bein' a celebrity dawg...but some pup's gotta do it right?  And that would be li'l ol' me....Travelin' Jack!  I'm one Lucky Dog!

                                                             BOOKS
Well, we all know that I am one scribblin' pup...and that I am New Mexico's ONLY award winning Dog-Author!...and we also know that I am very photogenic!  Now here's two of my favorite things combined...makin' for one dog-fabulous HOT-OFF-THE-PAWS-PRESS news tidbit from this bulldog reporter!

There's a brand new (not even off the printin' press yet!) PUP-LITICAL book by the humorist author, Charles Sambuchino! 

Mr. Sambuchino's latest book, named pup-propriately RED DOG/BLUE DOG, will be in the stores and on the book shelves this July...and (drum roll here)

Yours truly is INcluded in this book! 
It's a fun look at politics incorporating cute dogs into the picture (dog-literally!)....and we all know how doggone cute Travelin' Jack is!  And dog-evidently Mr. Sambuchino thunk so too..'cause he included ME in his book!   MWAAAAHHHH!  There's a JACK-SMACK for you,  Mr. S. from li'l ol' me! 

Can't wait to get my paws on the book.  July just won't come soon enough, I'm dog-fraid!

                                                           OTHER GOOD THINGS! 

Well, my dog-schedule just keeps on keepin' me busy!  (and my chauffeur's too....Jill made me add that!).  A couple of our next stops will be:

FETCH-apalooza.  Why this is ONLY the Biggest Adopt-a-thon of the Year in New Mexico!  And of dog-course...Travelin' Jack would not skip a beat in gettin' to this event.  But NO-NO-NO, don't get your pup-panties in a wad...I am NOT being adopted!  Dog-Forbid! 

But pup-rather, I'll be raisin' funds for the 4-footed kids at the Albuquerque City Shelter....and tellin' everyone to adopt their NEXT BEST FRIEND from a Shelter!  You know...save a life...gain a friend.....all those good things!  Mark your calendar for it now--April 21-22nd!

New Mexico Children's Fair. I've got LOTS of dog-fabulous things up my paw for this event.  And I'm not gonna spill the bones yet...but let me just bark about this....SAVE THE DATE!  May 5-6 at the Albuquerque Balloon Museum.  It's gonna be a REALLY big deal....I dog-guarantee it!  More about this later.......!

Yup Pup... nothin' borin' goin' on here.  Travelin' Jack is always makin' tracks for the NEXT BIG EVENT!  Not leavin' this dawg outta the fun...no-way!

Easter EGGstravaganza! Travelin' Jack spills the (JELLY) Beans on this HOPPening Event!

                                      
I was dreamin' about the Easter Bunny the other day...just imaginin' all the goodies I'd find in my own personal doggie basket........thinkin' about what kinda Easter Bonnet I might like to don for the big day

When  what happened but I woke up....and Lo And Doghold.......
 There I was all decked out in my sunflower bonnet...and a very dog-tantalizing basket right before my very bulldog eyes!....So what should I do?

 
Why what any dawg with jelly beans for brains would do!  Check it OUT! 

There was a little purple Easter bunny just for me....I'm a-thinkin'
 Lottsa plastic eggs.....hmmmm with doggie treats inside! Now THAT's what I'm a-talkin' about!  I think I hit the jackpot....but WAIT...there is more...of dog-course!  NO CHOCOLATE...but that's just fine by me...because chocolate is NOT good for dogs....Let the kids have the brown melty stuff.  Now for me.....I, Travelin' Jack dogfer to the squeaky toys that I can tear up!  That's what I call a dog-dandy Easter Basket!

But HEY....it's NOT all about me! What would any good holiday be without sumthin' special for my 4-footed cousins in the shelters?  They need some EGGstravagant doings too!  And...this pup has just the thing up his furry paw!  Let's combine Easter eggs....candy.......a Pet Adopt-a-thon....well....there's bound to be FURRY FUN GALORE!

SO.....................Let's head to Hinkle Family Fun Center for their Easter EGGstravaganza!


              

 OKAY....Yup-Pup  That's what I'm barking about................................................
I'll be there fur sure!  Hope you will too!  Come by and see me....and I'll have a special Easter treat JUST for you....because I wanna be your bully bunny buddy this Easter!

SEE YA THERE!

Trifecta Trek to Silver City

Heading to one of my favorite New Mexico gems......Silver City on a 3-Pawed Trip. 
Lots to do on this 'working trip '
1. Touring
2. Takin' Pics
3. TV Time
Whew....busy schedule for this travelin' dawg...but I'm up for the challenge.  Let's hit the road already! 

Now here's my first dog-vice tip.  If you're comin' to Silver City, make sure to make a side trip enroute to New Mexico's CITY OF ROCKS STATE PARK. 
 
Formed of volcanic ash 30 million years ago and sculpted by wind and water into rows of monolithic blocks, City of Rocks State Park takes its name from these incredible rock formations.This pet-friendly park is a GRE-A-T place to explore....
 
take a look at this dandy setting wouldja'?  Fun for Pups and People. Those rocks are GI-normous!
It's been a long drive today, so I sure am glad to check back in to the Holiday Inn Express Silver City...3rd time in this pet-friendly hotel. 
 Holiday Inn Express Silver City
They get my paw-dorsement for a nice, clean, friendly lodging option. 
See how they advertise Pet Friendly..right at the front desk! Good job HIESC!
.
Checkin' in...need to get some TV time to get ready for my big TV debut tomorrow morning.  I'm gonna be on CATS TV here in Silver City on the Morning Show. But before we talk about TV..here are a few pet travel tips for the hotel room---
I always carry my foldable portable crate on my trips....but sometimes I like to splurge and really relax....so I have a doggone good plan for that! 
Don't want to take advantage of any hotel that allows pets...dog-bless them!...so I bring my favorite blanket and spread it on the bed..that way, no fuss, no muss..and I am one happy, comfy pooch! 

While we're on the subject of Holiday Inn Express Silver City....let me dog-lighten you as to HOW comfy and cozy this hotel is!  They have all types of bed pillows for the people to choose their favorite....FIRM, MEDIUM or SOFT!  Since I am such a softie.....I choose SOFT!  Thanks HISC.....you are top dawg!

Friday morning. BREAKFAST TIME!  Look at this doglicious-yummy breakfast that Jill brought back to the room for us to share!  They do a dog-dandy job of offering up a tasty & COMPLIMENTARY hot breakfast...
TODAY'S MENU 
Cheese Omelet
Crispy Fried Bacon (just the way I like it!) 
Biscuits & Sausage Gravy
Bagels, Sweet Rolls
Fruit, and of course Fruit Juice too (gotta get those Vitamins)...and much more..something for everyone's taste buds!
 DOUBLE DOG YUM! 
If this doesn't get a person going on the right track nothin' will! Thanks HIESC for this grand slam start to my busy day here in Silver City! 

 
Tummy's full...time to roll.  Here we are in downtown historic Silver City at Bullard & Broadway!   http://www.townofsilvercity.org/


 
We mosey on down Bullard past the BUFFALO BAR (note to dog-self...check out this scene later!) on to the CATS Studio.
I'm on the Morning Show LIVE with Gwyn & Lori! Can't wait to chat with these two Silver City dames! We're gonna talk about ME, my book and paw-digraph event, and the Literacy Alive Centennial program here in Silver City!  That's a lot to BARK about, but this TV canine is UP for the task.

(Later that morning)


DONE with my TV interview.  That was just a dog-dandy interview if I do bark so myself!  Lori and Gwyn and Troy....you were SOOOO very dogspitable!  I just love Silver City!  I even got to say BARK to Mari, the in-house pooch at CATS
....hmmmm wonder why they don't have a CAT at CATS!?   
 
First stop following my TV time!  Silver City Visitor Center--- of dog course!  Just the place to get all the scoop on things to do...places to go dog-cetera.  Here I am posing with one of the friendly VC staff...and we're outside in front of the Billy The Kid Cabin.  This cabin from the movie set of “The Missing” was donated by the movie’s director Ron Howard and sits at the Murray Ryan Visitor Center near the site where Billy (a.k.a. Henry) and his mother lived. Pretty doggone KOOL if ya ask this pooch! 

But now it's time to take a little tour of Historic Silver City.  Here I am in front of the Silver City Museum.  Got to visit with some nice folks while sunning on the park bench. One gentleman...another blogger....is a real travel hero in my doggie eyes.  He travels ALL THE TIME...in his RV...just tootles around the country and visits all sorts of interesting places.  Glad to make your acquaintance Mr. Travelin' Man!  Thanks for visiting New Mexico!

                                            

 There's lots of history...and neat architecture (as seen by this old-tymie theatre) here in Silver City...some dating back to the days when it was founded as a mining town...... NOW HERE"S YOUR TRIVIA QUESTION OF THE DAY.........

                                                             What did they mine in Silver City?
                                                                          A. Dog Bones
                                                                          B. Water
                                                                          C. Silver
Of course this is a rhetorical question. If ya can't figure this one out...then you better do some doggone serious research...or better yet, head your car to Silver City directly to check it out in person.

 

But I dogress....back to my tour of historic downtown...trekking on down the street and what do I come across...but the Silver City Sun newspaper headquarters...and what do they have in their Window?  
Well, I'll be Doggoned!  It's a POSTER about my book...and me! 
Now THAT's what I call Dog-spitality Big Time!   

 Lunchtime with a friend at an outdoor patio restaurant in downtown, then the afternoon is off for some more pics and explorations of the area.
 First Stop:  FORT BAYARD. National Historic Landmark. Established 1866. 
Here I am at the National Cemetary.  Pretty nice tribute to all those military folks who protected us over the hundreds of years! Thanks.  My salute to each and every one of you brave soldiers.  

You can take a walking tour (pets included) of the entire fort's grounds. They have an historic Theatre... 

 Beautiful old plantation style housing.....and more.  Fort Bayard Dog-definitely a great place to visit!

Now on to some other old sites in the area. As you meander down Highway 15 (theTrail of the Mountain Spirits Scenic Byway)...you come across the ghost town of Pinos Altos (in dog-english that means Tall Pines!...didn't know I was multi-lingual did ya!? HA!)  
 
All sorts of Old West characters hung out here.....I'm no dawg to drop names but here are a few of the old west characters who meandered the dusty roads and back rooms (hidden message there!) of Pinos Altos:  Billy The Kid, Madame Millie and many many more!
 
Why Even Judge Roy Bean's store was right here in Pinos Altos!

The Main Street of this charming old gold-mining town is like an old western movie set. Many of the old buildings date back to the 1800's and have been restored.  This here is the current Post Office AND (this is the SWEET part!) a local Ice cream parlor! YUMMEEE! Nothin' better than a cold cone to cool a quenched dog's throat on a warm spring afternoon.  I choose VANILLA BEAN...to honor the Judge Bean!

This has been one doggone busy day.  Back at the HIESC hotel room for some TV relax time and a good night's sleep.  Tomorrow is my Paw-digraph event! catcthin' a few zzzzzs..............

Saturday morning...sunshiny beautiful day in Silver City.  After another tasty breakfast at the hotel, we check out and head downtown to the historic Silco Theatre

A really Neat old theatre where we are holding our Literacy Alive Event.  Now this all came about because of special lady by the name of Sharleen Dougherty...who thunk up the idea of honoring our Centennial birthday...a special book called "Voices of New Mexico" and a contest for teens to create art or essays about our state. 

They then invited ME along for some STAR POWER....you know, the in-demand Dog-Author that I am!

 So...I meet up with the good folks at the event...and specially with Heidi..the President of the High Desert Humane Society...so's we could sell folks my 'paw-digraphed' book and raise some bones for the kids in the shelter.  Ya know they really want a FOREVER family just like me!  So here's to the 4-footed kids in Silver City...let's help them out!  (Hint..check out their website link...they even are talkin' about li'l ol' me! I'm dog-honored HDHS!)

I was just visitin' nice as can be with Miss Heidi...and of dog-course posing for pics from the adoring crowd....when what appears before my eyes than..........................
                                     

 A whole platter of dog-licious cookies for the PEOPLE!   There were Jack dog cookies, Jack Dog-House (not that I would know what a dog-house is...dog forbid!) and a Woof Cookie.  Pretty DOGGONE cool don't you agree?  Thanks to Miss Paula and her talented friend in the kitchen for making these special cookies in my honor.

But now here I have to dog-diss a bit.

 

 They decide to SHOW them to me...and then  tell me they are for PEOPLE only!
WHAT????? You MUST be dog-kidding!  But don't dog-spair....
..............................I got the LAST LICK in............................
I told them to hold the cookies down so's I could see them up close......and AHA! one of the cookies slid right off the platter...and wouldn't ya know it....landed right in my mouth! 
                                     GULP!
Gone in one bite!  But this was important because I could now REALLY give my 5-PAWS up rating to the cookies!  You know...every cookie needs a Taste-Tester, right?  Yup..that would be Travelin' Jack, thank you VERY much! 

We had a great event...donated some $$s to the shelter, dog-gratulated the Teen winners of the Literacy Alive contest...and off we go, back in the saddle (so to speak...not really a saddle in our comfy Ford Flex)...and homeward bound we go.
 
 Down the scenic Highway 152 we drove, over the mountains and through the forest...to a gurgling little creek.  Roadside stop for a Saturday afternoon picnic....
 and exploration.....now WHAT have I dog-scovered here?  Fun..this is one cool stop for me and my Chauffeur!  Gotta take time to smell the roses...the pine trees and such ya know!


One final quick stop for that LAST photo op in the old mining town of Hillsboro!
(If ya haven't figured it out...New Mexico has LOTS of old mining towns...now ghost towns...doggone fun to explore too!)
    Found just the right place too!  The crumbling old Hillsboro Jail.....hmmm...after a pic and a little
dog-splore of the interior...I sure am glad I wasn't a BAD DAWG back in the days of the OLD WEST...this just isn't my idea of comfy quarters!

Back home just in time for a nighttime of dreams about my wonderful trip to Silver City New Mexico!  We dog-complished our mission.  We raced across the finish line and grabbed the Trifecta  
1. Toured 2. Took Pics 3. TV Time. 
Thanks Silver City....Luv ya!

Time to call it a day...I'm dog tired! 
ZZZZZZZZ...........................................

Doggie Hugs and Slurpy Kisses!
