For the last couple of months I’ve been planning a trip up north with my dogs. I even had the cities I wanted to go to in a chronological order, could you believe that? By the way, I love to plan things, and if they don’t work out, that is just another opportunity for me…

My Canine Entourage: Alex, Kingston, and Roxy.
I always thought that an entourage, as defined by Webster’s New World College Dictionary as a group of accompanying attendants or associates, was only for movie stars, athletes, singers, etc., but I was recently proven wrong by my canine companions. Roxy, a beautiful Pomeranian, stayed with us this weekend and out of all the dogs…
Should I Walk My Dog Every Day?
Yes, you should walk your dog every day. I know, I know, many times we are not in the mood, we don’t have enough time, or we are too tired. These are all good excuses, but you and your dog can greatly benefit from a walk. For your canine companion and you the benefits of…
Alex, My Pit Bull Mix Girl, Is Afraid Of Her Own Farts
My canine daughter, Alex, has a little ritual that she follows most nights, and that is to sit down right next to me while I do dishes. The reason she does this is because, and this is just my theory and wishful thinking, she wants to remind me that I need to brush her teeth…
My Dogs Are Teaching Me About Forgiveness and New Beginnings
Many times when asked who do you admire the most and who can you learn from, many answer, Mother Teresa, Churchill, Charlize Theron, etc., but for me the best teachers I’ve ever had, after my aunt, mi mami Elvirita, who raised me, happen to be the dogs that enter my life. When I was a child…
Please, Put Your Dog on a Leash
Today, as usual, I went out walking with Alex and Kingston, but we stayed close to home, meaning within a good 20 minute walk from home, because it looked as if it was about to rain. Both of them were eager to go for a walk, yes, even my Alex, so we got our gear…
Why Is My Dog Scooting So Much?
Many pet parents at one time or another had to deal with a scooting dog, and usually it is overlooked when this is done only in rare occasions, but if your dog is constantly scooting and he leaves some brown or yellow secretion on your carpet, bed, etc., you need to take him to the…
Alex, The Girl That Finally Tamed Me
I got my first dog in 2001 and up until that time having a good time meant going out and dancing until the club closed and not a minute before that. I really did not want to get a dog, but my girlfriend insisted and pleaded so much that I gave in and we got…
Kingston: Snoring at Its Best:)
I believe I am blessed and cursed all at the same time. I have very sensitive ears, I could be asleep and many times I can still hear everything that is going on around me, and sleeping with dogs that snore is quite a challenge, but I’d hate to be without them. To be quite…
