Who Does Your Dog Look Like?
Some people look like their dogs. Some dogs look like people. Since Haley started going gray in the face, she reminds me of a certain 70’s rocker. I kind of hate seeing all that gray but she’s got some new character and designs on her face that look pretty cool on a senior lady and she still has the energy … Read More

Do Dogs Get Spring Fever?
How do you know when spring is about to arrive? Here in the Midwest, it’s been a long, cold winter and I’ve been searching for signs of life under all this white stuff covering the ground, but I haven’t seen a Grape Hyacinth or Daffodil bulb spouting through the soil yet. Then it happened! I got the official word yesterday … Read More

Do Dogs Barter? – Trading Toys for Treats
Something odd happened not too long ago that made me feel pretty unobservant as a dog owner and left me intrigued about my dog’s behavior.

That’s a pretty manageable number after all and I’m all for making realistic goals when it comes to New Year’s resolutions. It’s not too late … Read More
