When we lived in Maryland, I thought to myself, “Wow! There are a lot of dogs.” Dogs always put a smile on my face, and when I realized that there seem to be even more dogs in Massachusetts,as you can imagine, I was ecstatic. So, where did we go to see so many dogs, you…

See You Later Maryland
Let me start by saying that writing this post is very difficult for me so please bear with me if I get very sentimental. I have lived in many places throughout the US, but there are two places in this country that really feel like home to me and they are: New York, where I…
Short-Haired Dogs And Coats/Sweaters
The above picture is of Dexter, a very handsome boxer mix, that used to stay with us often. Since Spring is taking its time to arrive, make sure that your canine companion is properly attired when you go out with him. Dogs that have short hair like Dexter need to wear a coat or sweater…
Spring is Coming – 2015
Do you know how Alex is going to welcome Spring? She will start by taking frequent naps specially when we go out sightseeing and/or shopping. She has to have her beauty sleep. Alex’s naps will be followed by walks throughout the day. She is a senior, almost 13 years old, and as such it is…
Freaking Winter Wonderland – 2/21/15
I don’t know how to start this post, so here it goes. I am going to make a list of the things I like and dislike about Winter so this way maybe someone out there will say, “Me too.” Misery does love company. Things I like about Winter: Shoveling snow, but only if I do…
Alex’s ACL Injury – 15 Months Later
In November 2013, Alex injured her ACL and I was beyond scared. So scared that I was ready to put her through surgery, but my better half, Cynthia, talked me out of it, and even today I am glad we made the right decision for Alex. Please, bear in mind that neither Cynthia nor I…
The New England Holocaust Memorial in Boston
While in Boston, I had the opportunity to visit the New England Holocaust Memorial, and to say that I was touched by what I read would be an understatement. What resonated with me most was this: They came first for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came…
Dinner – Chicken, Rice, and Mashed Potatoes
After reading about what goes in the making of kibble, I decided that it’d be best to feed Alex a combination of human food and kibble with the former making up most of her diet. In Ecuador, where I am originally from, when I was a kid our pets were fed scraps and I don’t…
Blizzard 2015 – Really?
Well, I really thought that Maryland was going to get hit pretty bad with this storm, but we dodged the bullet, and I am so glad. I was worried to be quiet honest, but Alex, on the other hand, was cool like a cucumber. When I took her out, I think she was just happy…
Belated Happy New Year 2015
This was the first year we were not home. Instead we went to Boston to visit family and did a little sightseeing while there. As you can see, Alex could care less about the ducks around her. It was funny to see Alex totally uninterested in all the real ducks around her, but once she…
