Move Over Johnny Cash

The Papster has arrived on Music Row!!

(hmmm~the fire hydrant or the Musica Statue???)

Well, the Flat Version of him anyway, and he seems to be having a blast running around Nashville.

(what? another flattie??)

The first stop on Flat Papster's Rescue Fundraising tour was none other than the birthplace of 3D Papster in Ashland City, TN, a little town just outside of Nashville. He must have interrupted his Uncle Traveller's supper, see the cottage cheese on Trav's nose? Just like a Bull TerrOr to arrive when food is being served!

(Traveller, 3D Papster's Uncle)

He arrived just in time to celebrate St. Paddy's Day with everyone too! He had an All Access pass to the 18th Avenue Pub Crawl on Music Row. Hope he didn't drink too much green beer, cause he's too young to drink!

(let's get this party started!)

(3D's other Mama, Janice laughs at Flat Papster on the table)

(maybe HE had too much green beer??)

I'm told he is going to work with his other Mama Vicki, then he will be heading to CT to see what trouble he can get into with Gimli, the stiff necked dwarf and his family.

(Gimli is an example of where the donations go, he is a rescue, the scar on his muzzle is from some jerk who tied his mouth shut to make him quit barking!)

For those reading our blog for the first time, or in case you forgot what this is all about, Flat Papster and his friend Flat BenJammin are traveling the globe raising money for Bull Terrier Rescue. Rescuing and fostering Bull Terriers is very dear to my heart and our rescue is always in need of money to help these poor babies who, out of no fault of their own, have found themselves homeless or abused in someway. My dear friend Paula and I feel it is the responsibility of anyone who spends the money to show this wonderful breed to also give back by helping the rescues who are in need. Here's how it works....

Flat Papster and Flat Benny are in a race to see who can go the most places and who can raise the most money for rescue. The "official" race will end in Oct at Silverwood and our Nationals. Both flat boys will be there to present money to our rescue and with a list of places they have been on this Most Excellent Adventure. (if you click on the link it will take you to our Facebook Fan Page)

If you would like to help we ask that you "buy a ticket" by donating at least $5.00 to our rescue. You can mail a check or use PayPal. Be sure to put the name of the Flat Boy you want to visit in the comment box. (lots of folks are having both flat boys visit!) We will then put your address on the list and have him sent on to you ASAP. We ask that you take pictures of the adventures and email them back to one of us so we can post it on our fan page and also here on the blog.

We have 2 of each Flat Boy, one here in the US and another traveling outside the US. We will try to make sure the Flat Boy of your choosing gets to you as fast as possible. Quite a few tickets have been bought so far and are asking if you have a Flat Boy visiting that you try not to hold on to him for any longer than a week before sending him on to his next destination. Paula and I would be forever grateful to you should you decide to participate in this fun fundraiser, but the Bullies you will be helping will benefit from it the most!

To have Flat Papster come visit email him at FlatPapster@aol.com
To have Flat Benny come visit, email him at FlatBenny@yahoo.com
The PayPal account is PaulaShawBTCARSC@aol.com

(Flat Benny or BenJammin as Pappy calls him)

Paula and I hope you will join us in the fun and help our rescue babies at the same time!

Oh and by the way, Flat Papster might be trying to top Johnny Cash, but he will step aside for this man, DawgMom says so!! (for those that don't listen to country music, that's the one and only Conway Twitty)

Until next time (hint:Flat Papster the globe trotter has made it to the Land of Oz)



Hucklebutts!!

We're Off to See the Wizard!!

Boogity, Boogity, Boogity, they done dropped the green flag!! The race has started!!

Flat Papster is on his way to 3D Papster's birthplace in middle Tennessee! Rumor has it, he is in for an awesome time while he is there! DawgAunt Janice says he might be goin to the Nashville Kennel Club dog show!!

DawgMom took Flat Papster out to the mail dudes on Wed & can you believe that mail dude even let her take pictures? How cool is that? They thought it was such a great idea when she explained what we were doing & asked if she could take pictures he said "Of course" (there's 2 envelopes because one Flat Papster is stayin in the US & one Flat Papster is on his way out of the states)

Flat BenJammin has been havin lamb-u-natin problems, but DawgAunt Paula said he's finally all fixed up & ready to go. So the race is on! I think Ben Jammin is headin to PA first. Both of them are startin the race in their own states, funny, huh?

DawgAunt Sandie buyed tickets AND pass-a-ports to the Land of Oz! Reckon they will get in to see the Wizard while they're there? If they do, they better get pictures to prove it, or no one will ever believe them! And they better watch out for that wicked ol witch, she's got the meanest chip-monkies around! They FLY! I mean, seriously, look how scary they are!!

We're not sure where all Flat Ben Jammin is headin, DawgMom is bein lazy (what's new?) & needs to call DawgAunt Paula to see, but Flat Papster has tickets to TN, PA, CT, IN, CA, Oz & Canada so far!! We're all so jealous!

If any of you want Flat Papster or Flat BenJammin to come visit you, please email DawgMom at FlatPapster@aol.com We sure hope some of you do, we would love to see pictures of him visiting our bloggie friends! Check out our post HERE about how it works. We are asking that you "buy" the Flat Boys a "travel ticket" by donating $5.00 to Bull Terrier Rescue. The PayPal account is PaulaShawBTCARSC@aol.com be sure to note in the comment box if you are requesting Flat Papster or Flat Benny to come visit.

Well, we go thunderstorms here on our ridge & with lots of boom, boomin & rainin & such goin on here, DawgMom says time to close this post.

So y'all clean out the spare room to make room for the Flat Boys & help DawgMom, DawgAunt Paula, FlatPapster & FlatBenJammin help other poor Bull TerrOrs that need help. Check out the FaceBook page for our race updates too~~Flat Papster & Flat Benny's Excellent Adventure~The Race to Silverwood

Later Taters,

Are y'all ready??

Here we go! What every-Bullie has been waiting for.........Our Rescue Fundraiser idea!!
HARROOOOO!!!!! ......sorry, got carried away with myself.

First things first, this is not our idea, we actually *borrowed* it from Brutus the Frenchie & his way cool Mama! DawgMom did pee-mail Brutus' Mama & ask her first, if she minded if we used the same idea for Bull Terriers. Brutus' Mama is such a way cool Mama, she said Of course we could! So DawgMom told us that we are doin this with her blessing.
(Skippy says: "Blessin? Did y'all eat wifout me??)

Well, DawgMom talked to DawgAunt Paula cause DawgAunt Paula has lotsa Bullies in rescue too lookin for forever homes. Some of her Bullie babies don't even have foster hoomans yet! We knew that DawgAunt Paula was lookin for ways to raise money too, so they decided to do this thing together. DawgAunt Paula is in Mars, PA. No, not ON Mars, she's IN Mars. Bet Miss Fluffy Tail knows where that is.

Our *twist* on what Brutus & his Mama are doin, we are gonna make ours a race!!! Between a young whippersnapper Bull TerrOr~The Papster & an older, wiser, been around the block Bull TerrOr~BenJammin (*note from DawgMom: his name is Benny or Ben, but Pappy thinks he's a "jammin Bull TerrOr so he calls him BenJammin) It's gonna be a race to see who can go to the most places before we all go to them Silverwoods in PA this October!! How cool is that?? But.............

Yep, there's more! We hope to be able to keep on visitin places all over the world as long as we have tickets to go!! How do we get our tickets you ask?? Well, we ask the peeples & doggies & kitties & hammies that want us to come visit to *buy* us a ticket by donating $5.00 to Bull Terrier Rescue! DawgAunt Paula has an account already set up for rescue with PayPal. DawgMom & her are workin on makin a button for our bloggie so you can just Click from Here!
All you doggies & kitties & hammies that live outside of the US don't need to feel left out either, we already have our pass-a-ports & we can go anywheres! I heard a rumor that there's a couple of clones out there of Flat Papster & Flat Benny so they can go overseas, while we stay in the states, that way more of y'all can have us visit in less time! I don't think those clones are like Clacie tho, pretty sure they ain't.

So how cool is that!?!?! Brutus' Mama sure had a good idea & like I said, she's way cool for lettin us *borrow* it from her. Then DawgMom & DawgAunt Paula comin up with the idea of racin to the most places! I mean cool beans is all I can say (DawgMom kinda gave me the idea cause we live so close to the NASCAR track, but I'm not tellin her I listened) Now, I'm worn out from all the excitement over this & if I'm gonna be racin' I need to rest, so I'm gonna give DawgMom the pooter back so she can tell y'all the pacifics on how to *buy* our tickets & junk.

Later taters!

That boy wears ME out with all that excitement! We are very excited about this & hope we can really bring some much needed funds in for rescue & foster.

To have Flat Papster come visit you, please email me your snail address to FlatPapster@aol.com

To have Flat BenJammin come visit, please send your address to Paula FlatBenny@yahoo.com

Then go to PayPal & donate $5.00 to the PayPal account PaulaShawBTCARSC@aol.com
be sure to designate whether it's for Flat Papster's ticket or Flat BenJammin's ticket.

As soon as we get the notice from PayPal which *ticket* has been bought, we will email your address to the person ahead of you that already has Flat Papster or Flat BenJammin & they will mail him right out to you. The cost of the mailing should be less than $1.00. All you need is a business envelope to put him in.


Lastly, I ask that you take a picture (or 2 or 3 or however many you want) & write a blog post about the visit, let me know & we can link to one another's blog. We are very excited about this & the boys promise not to eat you out of house & home, they promise not to potty in the house & they even promise not to steal the covers from your bed! Now that's asking ALOT from a Bull TerrOr so that shows how excited they are about thier upcoming adventures.

For those of you on FaceBook, we have a page over there as well to keep track of where the boys have been. Flat Papster & Flat Benny's Excellent Adventures
You can find us there under the search for friends thing they have.
DawgMom (me) is Angie Taylor Crabtree. Look me up. (as soon as I get permission from DawgAunt Paula I'll post her name here too so you can find her)

I hope I haven't left anything out, if you have a question ask here or email me over on the FlatPapster email.

Thanks in advance to those of you that want to host our boys & most especially from the wonderful Bullies in rescue that you will be helping. The pictures I put up in this post are of the rescues/fosters that we have had here as a tribute to them. (1st: LizzaBelle when we first got her, 2nd: LizzaBelle now, 3rd: Chico, 4th: Skippy, 5th: Vinnie who was rescued by firefighters rappeling down a ravine to get him!)

Thanks again & as they say in NASCAR~Boogity, Boogity, Boogity~ LET'S GO RACIN' BOYS!!
