Dog Training….Unraveled
I’m not even going to try to catch you up on the happenings of the last, oh however many months it has been. My brain would melt. Instead, I’m going to share Petunia’s story, because I need to.
When Petunia came here, it had only been about a week since we had lost darling Hazel, who [...]

A few months ago, I got this comment in my inbox:
“You know you sound really unpleasant, right?
I typed ‘ irritating dog lady ‘ into Google, and your blog came up. I think you were first. Try it.
Also, you misspelled -assistant- when you described your husband.
That’s all.”
I was kind of entertained and really wanted to address [...]

I’ve been meaning to get here for quite some time, but life, it is just so busy these days. The kid, she is mobile, sort of, and the dogs, they are many. There is so much to catch up on, but it’s late, and I’m tired, so for now – I’ll leave you with this [...]

So, I’m in Wyoming visiting my Mom. Who owns not one, not two, but three pugs. Yes, three. She’s crazier than I am. Of course, I brought my dogs, so that brings the total in the house up to five. Pugs that is. Then add the goofy Labrador and the Border Collie, it’s a bit [...]

My baby and I have had a very busy few weeks. Errands, simple things that take on gargantuan proportions when toting a six month old, activities, and all manner of stuff and things. Our weekends have been packed with baby showers in far flung places, play dates, endless mounds of paperwork and filing, and trying [...]

Really, people need to quit whining about how disappointed they are about the Obama’s new dog. Seriously, with two little girls who have allergies and have never lived with a dog – who really thinks a shelter dog is a great idea?

And can I just add, while I’m on my rant today – I am so thrilled that our neighbors have gotten a new puppy. A poodle puppy that I can pretty much guarantee is not neutered yet, already looking like a matted disaster, and that they let run loose all over the neighborhood. If you [...]

I have to say, some of the warmest, most kind and considerate people I have in my life have come to me through the dog world, my husband included. I also have to say that some of the most obnoxious, inconsiderate, selfish bastards I have ever met are also part of the dog world. I [...]

So, Heather B. Armstrong, aka, Dooce, has been on a book tour for the past couple of weeks promoting her new book – “It Sucked and Then I Cried.” I haven’t read it yet, but since I now own it, I will be soon. I was going to go see her last year at a [...]
