Dog Training….Unraveled
Miss Karma got her sutures out today! She has to wear the cone for a
few more days (or a pretty sock when mommy is watching her) - but we
got the okay to START EXERCISING AGAIN!!!! Woohoo - yippee - hooray!!
I hugged the tech I was so happy to hear that. So, of course, we
headed straight […]

Yesterday we attended the first Pugtoberfest event put on by Pug Rescue of San Diego. It was a great little event - hosted in a volunteers yard, with home made pug beers, pretzels and other yummies. They had a “pug yard” up for the little beasties to have some off leash play time, but, pugs […]

She’s nuts - truly she is. At five years old, you’d think she would have figured out that the reflection in the stove, TV and windows is a REFLECTION, not another dog. Nope, still startles and barks at them. That perhaps, at five years old, she would have figured out the mommy likes it when […]

If I had a nickel for every time a client has given me a sheepish look and said “I know it’s wrong, but she sleeps in bed with me…” To which I answer, “my dogs sleep with me, I’m not going to be the one to tell you to kick your dog out of bed.”
I’ve […]

Heehee - okay, we love the dog, and feel bad that she’s in pain - but stoned pets are really funny!
Put your tongue back in your mouth Karma - you look pathetic.
Do you know the only reason I own Press N Seal cling wrap is to put on dog bandages so they stay dry while […]

Karma had her surgery today, and is now minus one toe on her front left foot. Poor, poor pet. The surgery went well, and she should recover just fine. So now, we have six weeks of recovery ahead of us, and then hopefully, she’ll be back in the game. We’re greatly looking forward to being […]

At one point or another, pretty much every pet around here has been stuck in a cone for one reason or another. Teak had nose surgery to open her little nares - a common procedure for pugs so that they can, you know, breathe better. She still somehow managed to flip Dyson’s ear over the […]

37 weeks today, officially full term. Baby is settled in nicely and not coming out for the foreseeable future. *Sigh* So, now, we wait. It’s a bit unsettling to be fully on someone else’s schedule. Someone you can’t call and say “Hey, could you make it the 25th? Cause I’ve got the day free.”
On a […]

In the way of blogs, somehow mine attracted the attention of author, Kim Pearson. She asked if she could send me her book, “Dog Park Diary, the social round of Goody Beagle.” Thinking it might be cute, I agreed to review it here.
Weeeelll, the first thing I noticed is that Goody Beagle needs to lose […]

Karma is having to wear a cone on her head, details to follow later, but the amazing thing is that is simply amplifies her already horrific breath. And she is sad about the cone, so wants to cuddle and be close - with the steamy, yucky, smelly dog breath. Fun….
