Unforgettable 2023 Summer

The temperature yesterday, today and tomorrow will reach 93 degrees in Annapolis, MD. Could you believe that? How are we dealing with the hot temperatures? We go for a nice long walk very early in the morning; in the evening we go to a store that allows dogs so we could walk; and we drink…

Summer, Walks, And Dogs

The above picture was taken years ago in June, and it was surprisingly not too hot for June in Maryland. Yes, unbelievable but true. Anyway, since we moved from Massachusetts I can no longer walk whenever I feel like it. Why? It’s too hot and humid, by the way I am not complaining, so I…

3 Reasons To Crate Train Your Dog

There are many reasons why your dog should be crate trained, but I think these 3 that follow-for me-are the most important: Avril, the cutie pie in the above picture, is learning the ins and outs of crate training and she is doing wonderful. I like to put a comforter to cover the crate to…

BARCS And Avril – Cutie Pie!

All My Canine Companions formed a partnership with BARCS, Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Center, and so we will be fostering dogs from this organization from now and on. Dogs get returned to a shelter because they may have training, but not behavior which includes things such as: no counter surfing, walking properly on leash,…

Dog Friendly Series – Jiffy Lube

Let me start by saying that I do not get any compensation in any way, shape, or form from Jiffy Lube, and that I decided to highlight the places we go to in Maryland, with an emphasis on Anne Arundel County, that are dog friendly in order to encourage other pet parents to take their…

Is It Spring Or Summer?

I am a bit confused with the weather here in Maryland. The last couple of days have been chilly-no, cold is the better word-but a few weeks ago we had temperature that went up to 75 degrees. I was about to put all our winter clothes away, but the cold weather came back, so Abby…
