When Cynthia is able to help me, I walk 2 dogs and she walks the other 2. Those with higher energy level are walked longer by yours truly. But, when Cynthia is unable to help me this is what I do: I walk Alex, my slow walker, and Bella together for about 15 to 20…

Foster Failure – Bella, Our Girl
A little over 3 months ago, Cynthia and I went to BARCS to pick up a foster dog, and I truly wanted to train her and work on her behavior so she could go to her forever home, but that was never meant to be. As time went by, I realized that Bella was a…
Human Food For Alex And Bella
Let me start by saying that I started to feed Alex and Bella human food, at the beginning, always in small quantities, Also, neither one is allergic to any of the ingredients I use, and if you are planning to start feeding your dog human food and have any questions about it, please talk to…
TGIF – Siesta Time
Around 1pm, I took Alex and her canine companions out for a short walk around the neighborhood. When we were a couple of minutes away from home, it started to rain so we had to hurry up since I did not want them to get wet. After I dried them, they had a nice snack…
My Journey Through Life With Alex
I recently read one of my favorite blogs, Marking Our Territory by Will and Eko, and although I’ve never met them, I felt a sense of fellowship with Will. Why? He wrote that Eko, Will’s dog, is his anchor. Alex, my pit bull mix girl, teaches me every day to appreciate the little things that…

Basic Training Part II
Bella completed her Basic Training/Good Manners class on Saturday, 3/01/14 and to say that we are proud of her would be an understatement. With Casey, my first dog, I took Obedience I, Obedience II, and Canine Good Citizen. With Alex, my current furry kid, I took Obedience I. Why do I do this? What’s the…
Alex, My Almost 12-Year-Old Canine Companion
Alex is our second dog and she’ll be turning 12 on May 5th. We got her when she was a little over 3 months old. At that time, I never knew nor imaged how much she would change my life, but she did and I am glad and grateful for that. Here are just a…
Grey Muzzle? I Don’t Think So
The cute lab in the above picture is Bingo. Would you believe me if I told you that he is 14 years old? Probably not. Usually dogs with dark hair show very easy, as they age, grey muzzles, but Bingo is one of those rare exceptions because most of his hair is black and shiny….
