Snickers is definitely LOVING being back in an urban environment. He enjoyed the big yard and the big parks we went to in Indiana, but mostly I think he was almost as bored as I was. When he went outside he would check the fence perimeter and then settle on his park bench and wait [click to continue reading...]
I received this email yesterday from Rick and Colleen, who adopted Kaos/Kayla from me a year and a half ago. I wanted to share it because so many of my blog friends helped with rescuing Kayla from Miami Dade Animal Control and taking care of her for six months until she was adopted. HAPPY BIRTHDAY [click to continue reading...]
At 3:00 AM this morning I put fabulously fresh sheets on my bed. I _love_ fresh sheets. This act is only noteworthy because I had to do it around Snickers. He’d already "gone to bed" in the pile of clean sheets I’d left there after I did laundry. He didn’t want to get off the [click to continue reading...]
I received a welcome and gratifying email today. Kayla (the doggy formerly known as Kaos) has been with Rick and Colleen for over a year now.

I made the mistake of leaving in 1991 and spent the next few years desperately trying to find my way [click to continue reading...]
Almost a year and a half after Kaos landed in the Miami Dade shelter, Benedict finally called. He didn’t call me, so I wasn’t able to ask him what the hell happened to him. He called one of the other people from the neighborhood that helped him and Kaos get to Florida back in Nov [click to continue reading...]
We’ve now been accused of scamming people to make money on their dogs. About a week ago, I received the following email. (Please forgive the horrid spelling and grammar. I’m posting it all as I received it.) I just received a six month old Shiba Ina from a Ohio breeder last Thursday. The dog will [click to continue reading...]
hmmmm… How can there be a show with that name and it not be about Snickers??? And apropos to absolutely nothing, I just had to find an NYPD officer to haul the big, drunk guy off my front step so I could get inside with the dogs at the end of our walk. Best part [click to continue reading...]
