Sorry but this may cause some of you to have um, an allergy flair up or find there is a lot of dust in the air. :



"It came to me that every time I lose a dog, they take a piece of my heart with them.

And every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart.

If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and maybe

I will become as generous and loving as they are."

It is part of being their chosen human. It is like thermodynamics, all the energy is conserved; they give us the intense love and devotion during their lives, but our grieving is giving it back, too equilibrium. IMHO the beauty of it is that we get to have all that love and devotion for quite some time (usually). And our grieving is very intense, but for a relatively short period of time; and then, there is only the comfort and peace of heart for having known them, forever.

Daisy has been gone going on seven months. It is a process a key part of our relationship with them.

I had one young Shih Tzu boy (Oscar, the darker one) that wasn't liked by the older males, so a breeder recommended a standard poodle. So Zora got added to the herd, and she's been awesome. Full of joy, not demanding of anything (except some occasional attention), and very sweet and gentle. Zora's 4 yrs old now and these little ones are 7 yrs old. They have some good fun together.

Adorable!!!!!! Talk about a pocket pup.

I keep waiting for the day I get home to find either a schnauzer pup or an Aussie/Cattle Dog pup. I showed the wifey Pickles and then thought..... now Pickle’s is in the running.

Speaking of mini Australians, archer turned six months yesterday. He weighs all of 32lbs. We think that’s behind the growth curve. Does anyone know?

The DOG thread

Rutt-Rrow!!!
The wife is starting to send me videos like this....... can you say, puppy breath and little teeth going, “nomnomnomnomnim” might be in the future?!?!? Only time will tell. She does love those little schnauzers and I find it funny that when she send these to me, she includes possible names.

When I ask her, “So, when are you getting one?” It’s all about denying the possibility.
Rrrrrrriiiiigggghhhhttttt.......

The wee baby jumped out of my wife’s car doing 30 and shattered his femur. He’s doped up right now. Surgery in anchorage tomorrow morning. In case you’re wondering estimates start at $4000.

Poor little guy...... with those ears, I would have figured there would have been more lift than drag, thus lifting him aloft.

Keep us updated and nothing it well wishes to a non eventful-routine surgery. Give him some ear scratches from all of us.
