Poor Abby - she isn't a fan of being brushed so I had a tendency to let her have her way and left the brush in the cupboard. Well, I went to TRY to brush her out and found that she was nothing but mats!! I'm so bad!!! So I had to take the clippers to her. Grabbing one blade, it wouldn't go thru her coat. So I grab a larger number and that wouldn't go thru either. By the time I found a blade that would go thru her, she was naked!! PINK naked!! I did what I could with her face so she didn't look… Continue

I read this poem at another site I belong to and got permission to repost it here. I hope you enjoy it. :-)



Here in this house



Here in this house... I will never know the loneliness I hear in the barks of the other dogs 'out there'.



I can sleep soundly, assured that when I wake, my world will not have changed.

I will never know hunger, or the fear of not knowing if I'll eat. I will not shiver in the cold,

or grow weary from the heat. I will feel the sun's… Continue

Well, I had to do it. I had to shave her down to nothing. I'm hoping this was from losing her puppy coat, and won't happen again! Abby is absolutely loving this new look - she is full of zoomies, and is happy as a little lark, and I just have to laugh. She is so sweet, and was so patient with me while I was doing all this. My hubby is hunting this week and will be home Sunday - he is going to totally flip when he sees his girl! She went from calendar girl one day to this the next day!! LOLOL I… Continue

We had a beautiful day for a romp, and it was great meeting other doodles and their people. A day for making new friends... ;-)

There are more pictures on my… Continue

Abby just turned 6 months on the 14th of March. She has lived such a sheltered life - poor thing. She had never been out of our yard with the exception of the car. She was a fraidy cat of a lot of things outside. Well, Elizabeth, (Sophies Mom) and I were talking here in DK one evening and decided to meet at an area dog park. The dogs had a blast. Abby was sopping wet and dirty and loved every minute of it. She is a social butterfly - and maybe too much so when it came to the people. She… Continue

What is your dogs favorite little treat?? Crazy as it may sound, Abby's is CRAISINS. She just loves them. That's what I have been using lately while training her. She will do anything for a craisin! LOL She must have a sweet tooth - and aren't they good for the urinary tract?
