We took Livvy and the Yorkies to a public rabies clinic last week. There were literally hundreds of animals there. We saw a ferret, some cats and a billion dogs. As a matter of fact, cats were outnumbered by dogs probably 150 to 1. Dogs, dogs, dogs… yelping, sniffing, pooping, urinating, barking, barking and did [...]

We’ve heard it a million times: You can’t teach an old dog new tricks. It’s a proverb that I think I have always believed, literally. I mean, with old dogs. Every dog we’ve had, once it hits a certain age, FORGET IT. Maybe it’s just that I am no good with dogs. (I do actually [...]

He is a mailman, and he has had his share of close encounters with monster dogs. He could tell you some stories, Cujo-style, I tell ya. He’s worn [...]

Ugh, summer. The humidity is cranked up SO high here in Upstate New York. Rarely do I feel sick, but today the humidity gave me a stomachache. And the bugs this year are big suckers. Literally. With one or two slurps, they can drain a cat of half his bodily fluids. My poor Fuzzy must [...]
