In Wednesday’s blog post I hinted that during an “on-sight” product review a few weeks ago, Leo tested a treat and gave it a standing ovation. But I didn’t tell you:

• What it was
• Where it was
• Or how in the Doodle we got there….

STANDING OVATION | WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Who knew I could run a business in my home with two furry four legged creatures as my employed staff?

Who knew I had the pawfect childcare providers already in place?

Well I sure didn’t – at least not until Saturday.

I told The Boys three very special “little people” were coming over and they seemed beside themselves with anticipation. When their guests arrived, it was difficult to determine who was more excited…

We all know “The Fifth Amendment” protects one from being forced to incriminate themselves. Incriminating oneself is defined as exposing oneself (or another) to “an accusation or charge of a crime.”

That seemed to be Harley’s story…

This is his famous “it wasn’t me”…

I’ve decided rather than continue to whine, cuss, and fuss about this roller coaster weather ride we’re on, I’m just going to accept it – embrace it – and “go with it.” 

Why fret about those things I cannot change.

When you think about it, Mother Nature is a powerful force. I now have renewed respect for her. I no longer try to “will” her to listen to me.  I no longer have a “religious-like” attachment to media weather coverage.

I now have a…

Hello everybody – allow me to introduce you to a very special lady…

I’ve talked about her here, here, and here! She’s my “mommy!” and the “other” furrvorite lady in Harley’s life……

I loved it at first, it was white, it was cold…

We had fun till week twelve, then it quickly got old….

I did what you asked, now please let me back in…

On early morning walks when that cold wind would blow,

I’d shudder, move faster and think “Oh my Doodle – oh no”….…

Dog Land App is our new social media furrend.

Free, easy to navigate, and a pawsome tool for you to share your life with your dog.

Dog Land App is new – it’s fun and ideal for dog lovers!

Here’s why I like this so much…

“I” am the family member who created and therefore am ultimately responsible for the “traveling doodle monsters” living in our home! Harley &…

Our family gatherings are “chaotic”, and rarely go as planned, yet they’re so much fun, and create a preponderance of memories. That is why I absodoodletutely adore “Sunday Brunch.”

Our daughter Tiffany, decided to host one yesterday. Her choice of words on the invite (yes, she sent out invites!) was pawdorable:

“Everyone is invited to my house for Sunday Brunch – two and four legs”…

I was so excited to see Kate…

Everybody with a dog does it. Whether it’s multiple times a day or just once because you’ve hired a dog walking service while you’re at work. If you have a dog, more than likely you will be out there walking the dog!…

Not until recently did I realize even though Harley and Leo have many similarities:

• same breed
• same family
• same home
• same…

“Oodles and Doodles” of  love to everyone for your kind words of encouragement during our massive search and rescue mission.

Today, I’m joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop sponsored byBlogPaws today! Don’t forget to stop by and visit some new blogs for fun!…

Last Wednesday we were told to “brace ourselves” for snow accumulations ranging anywhere from 12-15 inches. I tried to resist, but finally succumbed to the grocery store madness, and ran out that afternoon to grab a few items “just in case.”

As I hung up my coat and unpacked my “goodies” I went through a mental check list to ensure I hadn’t forgotten anything I needed to do. Nope! Couldn’t think of a thing.

In my mind, everything was “good to…

Dee and I met in church. Over the years we’ve had occasional telephone calls, stolen moments between services, and random infrequent emails.

When I started blogging Dee was one of our first subscribers outside of my immediate family. She is a very busy lady; Minister, Grad Student, Professional Career, etc… To know that she was actively engaged in my blog posts humbled me. She took the time to keep up with our stories!

I was without words a few weeks ago when Dee informed me…

Our evening at the 2014 Sugar & Champagne Affair hosted by the Washington Humane Society was more spectacular than I dared to ever dream of.

This Annual event honors local crusaders against animal cruelty. In addition to honoring their own, the Washington Humane Society (WHS)…

The other day I wrote on my FB page: “I love God, my husband, my family (two and four legs), and Charleston, SC.” I am obsessed with that place, can’t get enough, have always wanted to live there, and for many reasons:

• DH was born and raised there
• His family still resides there
• DD went to college there
• I love the climate, it’s people, cuisine, culture, and rich heritage….

If you’ve never been, please place it on…

While the rest of the world prepared for the “most watched” sports event on television, DH, The Boys, and I were headed to warmer weather. I was so ready for a break from the snow.

As soon as we reached our destination and got out of the car, Harley pranced around like he owned the neighborhood……

Today I want to tell you a story. A story about a soldier and his dog. A story about Henry, his puppy Maximus, and of course The Boys.

Meet Henry. An Army Non-Commissioned Officer assigned to an EOD (Explosive Ordinance Disposal) Unit, and his (then) 6 or 8 week old partner in crime “Max” or as Henry insists I use his full name: Maximus! A Brindle Pit/Lab rescue mix……

I explained to Harley that the Valentine Treats from The Honest Kitchen were for Valentine’s Day! He of course won me over with “the look” and he’s been enjoying them for the past three days…. The teeny tiny little heart shaped treats are made with just 1 ingredient, “Dehydrated Haddock” -…

Again, I’ve had very little to do with Harley’s follow up story, short of lending my keyboard to a doodle…

Meet Ashley – one of my favorite humans, and my FIRST day camp counselor…

A “Woofy Welcome” to Harley’s blog post today.  This was NOT my idea….
