Astro is now 10 months old!

Hooray!

It has only been a few months since I brought this little fuzzy, hot dog-shaped bundle of joy (and trouble) home and it feels like he's been a part of the family forever already!

While he is well behaved most of the time, he has picked up a few vices (I blame my boyfriend's pit-shepherd mix), and one of them is. . . Dun dun dun! CHEWING. He has already gone through two or three pairs of shoes, a couch cushion, a comforter, a few spots in the rug, and the baseboards… Continue

Happy First Birthday LaVerne!!!

My baby girl is 1 year old today! You know how your mind takes a snapshot when something really important happens in your life? Well I cant remember what I had for breakfast this morning but I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I got the phone call telling me that my pup had been born. I remember the excitement I felt. When the pups turned 6 weeks old I drove 3 1/2 hours to go pick her out. I knew almost instantly which pup would… Continue

Help for Koni

Vaccine time!

Yesterday I brought Callie to the vet to get her vaccines. I decided that we would walk there (it is only 5 blocks away). The walk went fine and Callie really enjoyed it. She wasn't a huge fan of having to sit in the small room and wait for the vet, but she was a brave little girl when she did get her shots. After we got home she rested and was happy to be home.

I had to leave for awhile because I was working, and when I got back Callie had made a mess in the bedroom. Runny poo all over… Continue

B is for Bark

Emma is going through quite the barking phase right now. She will bark for anything and everything. Her bone drops off the couch, she barks. Your attention is not 100% on her, she barks. I hug my husband and leave her out, she barks. She is bored, she barks. We're not certain what started it all because before this point she was a quiet puppy. Emma did start teething 3 weeks ago and that's about the time the barking began. No idea if they are related.

Paul and I plan to sign Emma up… Continue

Proud :)

We got Tucker in March - and he is 15 months old now. He has become a much more confident well-behaved dog over the past 6 months. He used to mark (inside and out), freak out when there were loud noises, make a scene at the vet, not even go outside in the yard without me coming, etc. He definitely wasn't all that confident or independent but yesterday I realized just how much progress he has made.

We started the day at the vet, he got examined, got a shot and got his nails clipped… Continue

First night with new puppy

Didi and little Reagan are already fast on the way to becoming friends.

At first Didi was a little wary, and she's still a cautious. For the most part she gives Reagan a wide berth, but every once in awhile and come up and give him a sharp poke with her nose, do a play bow and then they go on a merry chase, mostly with the puppy chasing her, and her slowing down so he can just catch her and then springing away. It is very cute.

Now, I know that the puppy is 11 weeks old, but I must… Continue

OMG - 2 puppies in the house!

At the end of July we got a 9 month old redheaded tri from the same breeder as Owain. We're still integrating her into a routine; her name is Gemma.

Well last night I got an emergency email from the trainer I work with. There was a corgi up in the Santa Clarita area that needed rescuing. It was being staked out in the backyard and had already been saved once by a neighbor from a coyote (head already in mouth!). Fortunately enough neighbors had made the owner's life miserable with… Continue

Layla FINALLY brought me pups!!!!

After sitting up with her all night anxiously awaiting to see that first push that sends a heatwave of emotions and alertness that the time is near to see our first pup, she finally did so at 9:45 am!!! It was about time, darn it. At 10:28 am a little tri male with a wide white stripe down his face was presented. Layla being the first time mom kinda just sat there for a second bewildered what just happened and how the heck did that get there. LOL As I began to take command of the situation she… Continue
