Chloe is still having problems with resource guarding. I got tagged the first night trying to break up a fight. Now tonight we had another one over a rawhide that was under my chair that I didn't realize was there. Chloe went for Riley as he tried to go for it after leaving the rawhide she already had. It's the since biggest issue we've had with her. So now everyone in the house has had an injury; Me, Riley, Chloe, and Brandon in that order. I keep trying to make sure there's nothing to fight… Continue

We came back home from our adventure to Minnesota last night around 7:30pm. We had one major tussle in the car as Chloe felt a little cornered by Riley as we took them out to potty at one of the stops on the ride home. It's been 24 hours, and it's been bittersweet.

That's right! On our Las Vegas vacation, Brandon proposed to me on a private gondola ride through the indoor waterways of the Venetian Hotel. We were serenaded by the most beautiful singing I've ever… Continue

This past Saturday, I made a trip to Madison, SD to look at Cricket, a rescue corgi. She was saved from a puppy mill at 4 years old. She sweet, loving, and a little shy. I took Riley and Brandon down to see her at a meet-and-greet at the Pamida. My first reaction of her was she was kind but timid.
