Dog Training….Unraveled
This is where we have spent most of our vacation – in front of the fire! Warm and toasty! I would have to say, the best part of winter is having a good excuse to stay in and lounge by the fire, cause it’s too darn cold to go out and do anything else! Once [...]

We decided to visit my parents in Wyoming for the holidays. Of course we brought the dogs, and the cats. You know, when people hear you are traveling with four dogs and three cats, they often look at you like you’ve just suggested that they join you in snorting a line of grape Kool Aid. [...]

Ok, I’m going to date myself a little here, so bear with me. When we were kids, we played this dumb game trying to make each other hurl, come up with something nasty, and your pals top it with something even blechier. (Like that? I made it up myself, right now!!) So here was our experience [...]

We went to a lovely little place called the Schoolhouse Creek Inn for our honeymoon earlier this year. I had dreamed of a place where we could take the dogs, someplace near the woods, like a little cabin by the lake where it would be just us. When I saw the ad for this place [...]
