I know, chaos may be an exaggeration, but for most people holidays tend to be pretty busy and somewhat stressful. What I like about holidays, of course, happen to be the food “we” cook, I am using we very loosely since Cynthia is the one that cooks, while Abby and I end up being the…

Whether you are going to explore new places like Abby… Or making new friends, take a moment to remember this special day. Thanks to all those who served and their families.
Walking With Abby
If there’s one thing Abby and I – Ok sometimes some of Abby’s friends as well – do is walk. The above picture was taken in Plymouth, MA. I go through shoes really fast, as you can imagine, but I enjoy walking with dogs. Walking is a great exercise for you, pet parent, and your…

Veterans Day 2016

Look at the attention they are paying Cynthia. Cynthia moved to get something from the fridge,…
Missing Alex – Happy 14th Birthday

Excessive Pacing & Your Canine Companion
I’ve had a few clients ask me, “My dog paces excessively in the house and I don’t know what to do. What would you recommend to get rid of this annoying habit?” The first thing I always tell them is to have their vet check their dog for it may be something related to his…
