dog

It's no coincidence that a dog is a man's best friend; they're more faithful than most other animals, and more faithful than many people.

Passing of a Furry Friend
Well, had to say a painful goodbye to my furry friend Snookie on December 4, 2021. We knew that it was a matter of time when the vet told us. It could be weeks, days, or months for you will pass away.

Black fur collects in every corner of the house. Six brown, stretchy monkey toys sit in a toy box waiting to be whipped around.

Ease My Troubles That's What You Do
"Marissa, Dad died." I didn't recognize my own voice as I said "how?" as an immediate response. I don't remember what my Mom said, but they didn't know the cause at the time. I said I had to go, twice, and hung up.

My Rexy Boy
I got my Rexamus Maxamus (Rex) when he was just a puppy. He was a full blood English Staffordshire (Staffy). When I went to get him, as you do with animals, I sat and waited for him to choose me. There were eight puppies and all, but Rex followed their mother from the back porch to the lawn. Rex, a white Staffy with a brown patch over his eyes, walked over to my feet, climbed on them and, as little fat puppies do, tried to reach for me, but rolled off.

Big Ears Matter!!!
When my daughter messaged me on Facebook and asked, “Do you want a chihuahua?” My first reaction was to type, “Oh hell no!”

Alfie And The Chicken
There once was a dog I owned called Alfie. He was outrageous. He behaved like a rockstar, high on cloud nine most of the time. He was so cheeky, yet so naughty too. Always getting me into all kinds of pickling dramas.

Well That Went Well
I am a Pug lover, and as a pug lover, I have been owned by Pugs since I was Twenty. So, after years of being owned by Pugs, you begin to brag about how wonderful they are and how much fun they can be, as well as how quirky they can be, as well as the energy bursts, the figure-eight poop, the pee trot you see where I'm going with this.

The impossible task of raising a husky
When my my partner and I announced the arrival of our new family member most responses were positive but a few were, well, hesitant. Of all possible dog breeds, why would we choose a husky? They're known for being stubborn, talkative, and very high energy. The easiest answer was "we've both wanted a husky since we were children." My first Nintendog was a husky named Damon, which stood as evidence that our statement was true. The answer people understood less was "all of those things are exactly why we wanted a husky."

The Big Show. First Place in Life Unleashed Challenge.
“You can have the pick of the litter,” they said. “Great,” I replied. “What does that mean?” It meant that my parents had successfully arranged a romantic encounter with our Labrador retriever and their friend’s female Lab. Both dogs had pedigrees and were beautifully black. The reward for this marriage? A five year old, that’s me, got to choose any puppy she wanted. The cutest one would belong to me and no one else. A little girl’s dream come true.
