Pixel’s Pitiful Attempts at a Howl

The other day I heard sirens coming in the distance.  I quickly grabbed my camera and got it ready to record Bailey and his howling, just because I think it’s funny.  I was wondering if this would be the time that Pixel finally joins in as up till now she has only barked and given him weird looks when he …

Bailey! Quit Being a Jackass!

That’s me about 100 times a day at the dog park.  Oh, give me strength! For the last week or two we have been trying to socialize our dogs by taking them to a nearby enclosed dog park.  Bailey has become quite anti-social over the years, especially with other male dogs.  He snarls and lunges and gives me a heart …

Do Not Disturb

It’s really difficult to knit with a dog on your lap, especially one who doesn’t like when the yarn touches her nose.  I don’t have the heart to disturb her so I try to knit a little off to the side.  She really does have me trained pretty well. What? I’d like to see you try to resist that face! …

Titan: The Not-So-Hostile Takeover

We’ve now had Titan with us for almost three days, and he’s completely won us all over.  With the exception of bit of night time drama the first night in his crate, he’s been an absolute dream to have around.  Now that he’s sleeping peacefully in his crate through the night, I think I can say he’s the perfect dog.  …
