To our Friends…and my Blossum…

Blossie, you have my heart. The only thing that has changed in my life since you landed in my arms five and a half years ago is…everything! Your presence is a gift of profound proportions. The sharing of our journey and priceless discoveries brings a joy and satisfaction I have never known. A deep woof to my precious girl. Words could never express my love for you.

To our friends and followers…

We are so very grateful to have you with us on this voyage. As Blossie and I trot along on this new adventure of ours, we are blessed to be joined by an ever-growing legion of supporters and fans. By the way, I am under no illusion the fandom is geared in my direction. I bow to the inimitable Blossie, who is just as irresistible to me as she is to you. And I happily embrace that daily!

Thank you friends. We cherish you.

Ilene Starr

Ilene Starr was born in Los Angeles, California, escaped to the Pacific Northwest in 2012 and has never looked back.

At the tender age of 61-3/4 years, after dreaming about having her own dog for decades, Ilene finally got her first dog when Blossum, basset hound, landed in her life and changed everything.

Ilene and Blossum’s first collaboration was a blog called Blossum the Divine Dog, a travelogue of profound, hilarious and deeply touching experiences which occurred in Portland, Oregon during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Then the book, Blossum the Divine Dog, took shape.

Blossum The Divine Dog may be summed up like this: “How I survived the Covid-19 pandemic guided by a gifted basset hound who possesses a wacky sense of humor, a reverent spirituality and lots of opinions. “
