I just thought I’d post a follow up on our new morning routine, which isn’t so new anymore, after two months. The jogging I was talking about hasn’t happened, though not, for once, because of my laziness. Junebug decided she wanted to get up and go on the walk with …
This past weekend, we had a chance to check out Marymoor dog park. We met up with some other friends and their dogs, and took a stroll around the 44 acre park. The walk along the river is lovely, and if you have a dog that like to get wet, …
Last year, my critique group gave me a gift of two nice pens that had pictures of dogs on them. One pen had all pits and the other had a cap of beagles and a base of Aussies. Junebug likes to chew pens, so I’ve tried very hard to keep …
Three times in a row, we went to the dog park and Larry had issues. All three times, I would argue it wasn’t his fault, but there was a pattern there, and it was starting to worry me. It helped when the third time he had an issue, another (uninvolved) …
I have written here before about the problems with the English Bulldog breed. They have a great temperament, but so many health issues (including the fact that they all have to be born via c-section), that I find it irresponsible to continue the breed. Well, the other day at the …

We currently have all the bedrooms in our house filled with people, so bins of laundry that are usually kept in another room are in our room for a few days. I am terrible at putting clothes (especially off season clothes) away, so there is currently a bin filled mostly …
I’ll be the first to admit that Larry was not on his best behavior for this incident, but it still made me mad. We entered the dog park, and sitting right next to the entrance was a man there with 2 dogs and 2 kids. We met the first dog …
Junebug is the least discriminatory dog I have ever owned. Moree was very much only cared for his people. Smokey was friendly to everyone, but was very definitely our dog. Larry takes his time getting used to everyone. Junebug, however, loves everyone, and will go anywhere to get the attention …
A death in the family caused me to be away for a few days (and is why I missed posting on Monday). Apparently, the dogs, especially Larry, got a little neurotic while I was gone. One night, he just stood in the hallway barking at our roommate. And its not …
