Pet Airways

I just saw a commercial for Pet Airways.
They only fly pets not humans.
Pups are in the cabin, not cargo.
Checked by attendents every 15 minutes.
They don't fly all over the country but something to check into if you need to fly your pups.
Flights start at $149.00

Small Act of Kindess

This is one of the kindest things you may ever see..

This is not our story. Vera posted it on the Doodle Zoo and was kind enough to allow me to copy and post it here.

I don't know who wrote this nor is it known who replied, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office of the US postal service.

Our 14 year old dog, Abbey, died last month. The day after she died, my 4 year old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed… Continue

Tug Toy and Leash in One

I found a website that sells a tug toy and leash as one. The make the tradional leash or as a Slip Lead (martingale and leash in one).
They have lots of choices or will make yours the colors you want.
I ordered mine but just ordered 'custom' colored one.
I will post pictures when I get them.
A very nice site to work with - my order was ready to be shipped in 2 days of my order.

These dogs are keeping me busy.

Now I was out in the yard trying to fix my plants. When what do I see - Fergie running through the yard with a squirrel in her mouth. OMG! that could be bad I think - squirrels are tough and mean. Fergie is just a sweetie. Thank god for the training I've done with her. I immediately yelled "leave it" and she dropped it immediately and came to me. As the squirrel ran away I could see the tip of its tail hanging by a thread. I think that squirrel won't visit this yard anymore.

The jaws of Death....

A great white shark has nothing on Hershey's chomp. And when he finds something he wants there's no letting go. To him, it's a game, to my daughter and the hem of her skirt, it's not. I have barked loudly "NO" with my super mom-dog bark, and he, "grrrrrs" back at me. I have to laugh at his tenacity, talk about a dog with a bone. I told him is stubbornness will come in handy when he's a lawyer.

Tomorrow we will try dropping a can with coins in it, to distract him, if that doesn't… Continue

To God from the Dog

Dear God: Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember to be a good Dog.

1. I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it or after they throw it up.

2. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell.

3. The Litter Box is not a cookie jar.

4. The sofa is not a 'face towel'.

5. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

6. I will not play tug-of-war… Continue

Max's Birthday Gift to Me

First, I would like to thank everyone who came to my page and wished me well for my birthday. That means a lot and I appreciate it. It also says a lot about this community. I'm now 36 years old and I feel like I just graduated high school! It may be because the only children I have is little furry Max. :)

I got a nice new computer for my birthday and I am now viewing gorgeous doodles on a 23" flat panel wide screen monitor. Yes, they are twice as cute now - haha!

The best… Continue

Naughty Lucy

I've been nursing all these impatients thru all the bad weather this spring. I just went out and Lucy dug up half of them. She's a mess and half the flowers are gone. DAM. I guess it's time to replant. Oh great. Now she wants to come in the house with those dirty feet. That's why they make puppies so cute or you'd kill them.

Slap my face.

Sometimes I really dont understand myself. I would like to be a fly on the wall listening in to the analysis of my psyche by some Dr. Phil type.

We have always had a dog since 1986. We are on our 4th. The first 2 had their time on earth and crossed over.

But I distinctly remember saying, 2 yrs ago or so, that Bailey (then 10) would be our last dog. I obviously wasnt that enthused in dog ownership at that point in my life thinking of the hassles that come along with owning… Continue

New F1B goldendoodle

I finally got a new pup. Zack was born 3/10/09 and we picked him up on 5/30. He is a sweet boy with a great temperment. He already knows sit and down after a couple days work.

He is a very picky eater. He weighted 20.4 pounds. She had him on Eukanuba Large Breed Puppy. The bag says 3.3 cups per day for his age and weight. 1.5 cups is the best he would do and over the first few days he dropped to 19.5 pounds. The vet put him on Nutri-Cal (2 tablespoons per day.) He is now back to 20.3… Continue

Well.....Fenway is home and half the man he was, hehehe

Well, we have made it home from Fenway's exciting day at the vet. He is SOOOO different than Shiloh was. Shiloh was all drugged up after he was neutered and slept for a long time.....Fenway seems almost wound up and happy. He has also already tried the butt rub.....in the grass before we ever left the vet! I had to keep pulling him to a stand on his leash so that he wouldn't hurt the stitches before we even got out of the parking lot. He also went crazy trying to lick it already....so I put the… Continue

Puppydom

I had forgotten what it's like having a brand new puppy in the house.

Hershey is a cross between an adorable stuffed animal, a toddler in the terrible 2s and a defiant teenager. He's so cute and so bad all at once. How often can you bathe a puppy, because he likes to tinkle on the floor and then, somehow get it all over him. He managed to get my grocery list off the fridge and chomp it to pieces. (remember he's a little puppy). I am looking forward to his puppy training classes… Continue

Our First Visit to the Dog Park

Yesterday we made our first visit to the Leita Thompson Dog Park (http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM1EK0). The park is reasonably new. By new I mean it has probably been there a year or two, but we have lived in Roswell since 1983, so new is relative. When we first moved to the Roswell area, what is now the park use to be a very nice horse farm. The family who owned the farm donated it to the city of Roswell. Roswell in turn acquired more land around the farm thus creating the Leita Thompson… Continue

Fenway's at the groomer and tomorrow it's off with the man-parts!

So I have an appointment for Fenway to be neutered tomorrow. He is not really a fan of being brushed....so I thought I would get him a haircut today so that for the next week or two I won't have to bother him with the brush. Poor thing, getting all gussied up.....has NO idea what is in store for him tomorrow! I am a little bit scared about it....mostly because he won't be able to play with Shiloh like he normally does. He'll need to take it easy and I am going to have to do that by keeping them… Continue

Ok, here's my attempt @ a slideshow! It managed to cut some of my photos off, so I'm sorry if they look kind of silly :). Gracie had SO much fun - we loved meeting all of you!…
