Thursday, May 16 we drove about 90 miles each way to visit our friend Gail Carden who has a very special business in Fort Payne Alabama called Challenges Met Therapeutic Riding School.  Kids with special needs get great therapy by riding on horses. We got to see some of the clients during their session, it was truly inspiring.  We also had fun checking out the…

Back in February when Ellie got spayed, the vet found a spot on her tummy when he shaved her. It looked like a really angry bug bite. They told me to use Benadryl and Neosporin and keep an eye on it. Over the last couple months, the spot got better slowly. It turned the color of her skin and got smaller. Then this week it quadrupled in size (dime-sized to quarter-sized), turned angry red again, and started swelling.

I took Ellie in today to have the vet take a look. She diagnosed it…

Ellie is just about 8.5 months now and so well-behaved that I've started giving her free run of the apartment when I go to work.  She's been a marvelous little angel, but she always has been. 

The first week she was home, she tried to chew on the entertainment center and desk, but a firm "no" put a stop to that right away and she hasn't touched the furniture since.  Then she tried to chew on cords, but again a "no" nipped it in the bud.  She was housebroken in a week (at four months)…

When we got our Abbigail, I posted a series of Abbi meets.. pictures and video. Abbi is still meeting things and situations, but our youngest, Zooey, has really never "met " anything or anyone. she beats, eats, defeats... but on a relatively quiet moment (for her) I caught the picture below and thought I would share it. She was out in the back yard on a spring day and hanging out by Chloe's garden... Chloe is the first lady of our Corgis and will never be forgotten. …

Happy Birthday Mandy!!!  I love you!!  Here is Mandy with her birthday toy. :)

I adopted Pearl from the pound when she was around 6mos old. I'm guessing that she is a Cardigan Corgi / Bull Terrier Mix.  She has the character and looks of both! 

Sidney's therapy dog group had a visit to California State University at San Marcos today as a pre-finals week de-stress event. There were about a dozen pups there today and the college kids loved having us there.

Sidney sat still for petting, at one point flopping over for a belly rub. He did tricks, shook hands and posed for pictures.

We just love our…

One year ago today, the world got a little brighter as this little guy made his debut. 

So it's official! I just found out exactly who my baby is.

On May 25th or 26th I will be bringing home this little lady.

She's a real sweetheart and the breeder says she's basically the "princess".

I'm in love.…
