I got this in an email today and thought I would share - its HILARIOUS!

he following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door.



Dear Dogs and Cats: The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.

April 17th was Callie's "gotcha" day. One one hand, I can't believe it's already been two years. On the other hand, it feels like I've always had her, because she's such a big part of my family and my life. I swear I love that furry little monster more every day! Callie had a lovely doodleversary (borrowing Donna's word) yesterday, romping around with Yankee (foster) Doodle in the house,  playing at the dog park with her friends Louie, Emmett, Boomer, and Yankee, taking a nap on top of me,…

Can you believe it,  Today Shelby met her brother.  It was pure joy to see her and Duffy together again.  I do beleive it has been nearly 3 an a half years ago when they left the other pups to find good loving homes.  Duffy was absolutely gorgeous and I, for sure was impressed with his loving family.  They love him as much as I love Shelby Roo.  Duffy,  you are the greatest and love your mom and dad as…

We had a great time at the IDOG doodle romp on Saturday at Point Isabel.  Here are some of my pictures.  A few more can be found in a Picasa album I uploaded here:…

Hey it's Ellie and Wheezy here..........hope everyone is having a great weekend!!

We are so tired of waiting on some nice weather here in Ohio.......we have had a couple nice days....but they don't last.   It's been chilly, windy and we had rain most of the day yesterday.…

'It's either me or the dog'

When I had my own children naturally I wanted to instill in them a love for nature, animals and of course pets.  We had a gorgeous GS when Jessica was small and then along came Rosie.  Six years later along came Sophie and three years later our first Birman Cat Banjo.  Banjo is now in the latter years of his life and an amazing cat, not like other…

So Harley's daddy came and took him home! I had him all pretty and trimmed. His ears were clean. His nails were done. He was well fed and watered. He actually gained weight while he was here! With all the playing he seemed alot thinner but I think he got taller. We showed off his new tricks. Explained why we had to take him to the vet....and explained why I NOTICED his penis…

Tomorrow marks our two year doodleversary. It's hard to believe it's been two years since Quincydoodle came into our lives, the time has gone by so fast. It took me two years of research and showing DH millions of cute puppy pictures to finally get him to agree to getting a dog. I wanted a big dog that was low shedding and that led me to the goldendoodle. From the day he came home we were hooked, so much so that DH keeps talking about getting another one. Quincy has bought so much joy to our…

The second week was good, and challenging. Bernie's heeling has gotten SO much better. I can't believe it, he never pulls anymore. He's like a different dog. But we can't stop there!

The second week we worked on the 'proper heel' - which means Bernie's snout was in line with our knees, give or take an inch, but not more than that. That part was tougher, partly because we were so thrilled he was heeling in general, but we got ourselves in shape and stuck to it. In addition to the…

We were all so excited and pleased at the Wonderful turnout we had at our Annual Vegas Romp this year.  Prayers were heard for the weather to hold off until the afternoon, and the weather was perfect!  For the last 6 weeks a group of us have been sewing bandanas and blankets and getting raffle baskets together.  It was the…

So poor Lola is home safe. She actually got back several hours ago (was only at the vet's for a couple of hours), but I unfortunately had to work out of town until early afternoon. Hubby was home to get her though....and it's been a rough day since. Lola refused to sleep even though she was really groggy and unbalanced and clumsy (ran into a couple of walls!!!)...so she insisted on pacing around the house whining all day. I cuddled her (and whispered sweet nothings lol), and tried taking her…

Recently, I did a blog on our rescue dog, Honey, but I feel like I have to give equal time to our wonderful dog, Hershey. My oldest daughter came out of the womb chanting the word dog.  We lived in an apartment many years before we could afford our own home and I always told my oldest that as soon as we got our house, she could have a dog. Rule #1: Kids never forget. As soon as we got our house, she started hounding (no pun intended) us for that dog. Of course, she…

So the last few days, I've been pressing the snooze button on days when I have to leave early-I guess I learned my lesson today...Myla sleeps in my bed after DH lets her out before he leaves in the morning, Chloe likes to go to her crate for some extra zz's until I get up. The alarm went off and I place it far away so I have to get up to shut it off or snooze it. Well, I was pretty out of it today and decided I…
