Posted on December 10, 2019 | 2 comments

Abby, “Mom, I am 100% sure that we’re lost. Could we please ask for direction? Please!!!

Yes, we were totally lost when we visited Quebec, but it didn’t matter to us.  How come?  We had a good time exploring this beautiful city, and eating along the way.

Abby, “Moms, do you need help packing? One suitcase = 2 cookies. What do you think?”

We were all ready to go back to Massachusetts after visiting Canada, but I think Abby a bit more because she watched us carefully while we packed our things.

Abby, “Moms, did you remember to pack my food and treats?”

I had to take the above picture.  Abby looked so adorable that it was hard to resist.  Anyway, we were ready to leave Quebec after a nice vacation, and yes, Abby did get treats and food along the way.

A Little R & R For Your Dog

Posted on April 6, 2019 | 2 comments

fb march 20 2019

I know, I know. I am always a big advocate on walking your dog, but you also need to give her enough time to relax and recuperate.  Add to that a nice comfortable bed and a blanket, and your dog will be in doggie heaven.  Enjoy your weekend!

Merry Christmas 2018

fb xmas 2018

Prince, “I am so tired. Please turn off the light for me.  Thanks!”

We waited until after midnight to go to bed in order to wish each other Merry Christmas, but our canine companions were ready to go to bed already so we followed Prince’s example, and it was lights out for my pack.

wp dec 25 2018

Abby, “Moms, could we our breakfast and presents already?  Please!”

This morning, my impatient girl, Abby, was eagerly waiting for breakfast and presents in the form of treats.  Prince, on the other hand, was a lot more casual about it.  We wish you a Merry Christmas to all of you!

Happy Thanksgiving 2018

Abby, “Moms, I will guard our food with my life!”

Abby looked so serious sitting by our table, that I couldn’t resist taking her picture.

Xgiving 20182

Yes, Abby had a nice helping of our food and she inhaled it.  Because most of Abby’s diet is made up of human food, there was not danger of her getting an upset stomach.  Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, your furry kids, and family!

Happy Belated Birthday Abby!

Posted on April 17, 2018 | 4 comments
wp april 15 2018

Abby, “Mom, are you feeding me any time soon?”

My inpatient birthday girl could hardly wait for her breakfast.  That look speaks volumes!

wp april 15 20182

Abby ate her delicious breakfast – finally! – which consisted of a stir fry and some kibble.  She inhaled it.

wp april 15 20183

Abby, “Moms, I am ready.  Let’s go”

Yes, Abby was more than ready to go and get some cookies for her birthday.  I like for her to travel in her crate or wearing a seat belt, specially made for dogs, so she is safe.

wp april 15 20184

Abby, “Moms, I want this one!”

Abby was certainly not shy about letting us know exactly what she wanted.  We took her to Maggie’s Dog House in Hingham, MA.

wp april 15 20185

Abby, “Mom, make sure you hold on tight to my bag full of goodies”

And so after we did some shopping we headed for a little bit of an outing to the city.

wp april 15 20185 (2)

Abby, “Mom, I like everything I am smelling”

And so we ended up going to Back Bay, Boston.  Abby loved it.

 

wp april 15 20186

Abby, ” I am 3 years Old?  No way!  I feel younger than that.

 

After our nice long day, Abby finally got her birthday cake.  Abby’s birthday is at the beginning of April, but we were too busy at that time so we decided to celebrate it a little bit late.  I am not too sure Abby mind that, do you?

Massachusetts And Our Furry Kids Bracing For Another Nor’easter

Posted on March 7, 2018 | 2 comments
wp march 7 2018

Jack, “Keep up with me”.

Since we have a storm coming to MA today, we got our morning walk done, and of course Jack seemed to be in a hurry to do so.

wp march 7 20182

Jack and Louis, “This is how we wait for another Nor’easter”.

Yes, Jack and Louis certainly do not seem worried at all.  If only we could be more like our canine companions, right?  If you need to be outside, be safe.

To Walk Or Not To Walk – Abby’s Dilemma

Posted on January 11, 2018 | 1 comment
fb jan 5 2018

Abby, “Mom, I don’t think we’ll be able to walk today”.

That was Abby looking out the window the day we had a northeastern coming our way.  I did keep her busy, but I am pretty sure she would have preferred to go for a walk.

wp jan 11 2018

Abby, “I need to pee, but I can’t find the smell I am looking for!”

Abby and I love to walk, but please be extra careful when you are out walking because drivers may not be able to see you due to the height of the snow.  It also doesn’t help that Abby and I are both short.

wp jan 11 20182

Abby, “Mom, please stop taking pictures of me already!”

Yes, as you can see in the above picture, Abby was already done being the object of my pictures.  Fine, no more pictures . . . well, for now.

Thanksgiving 2017

Posted on November 28, 2017 | 4 comments

txsg nov 23 2017

And this is how we started our Thanksgiving day, with an uncooled turkey.  Cynthia started to cook right after breakfast.

txsg nov 23 20172

Abby, “Where’s the cooked turkey? I am already hungry”.

We, of course, explained to Abby that the turkey doesn’t magically turn up cooked, but as you can see in the above picture Abby wasn’t buying our story.  Let’s remember she just finished having breakfast.

txsg nov 23 20173

Once everything was cooked, we set up the table and showed it to Abby.  She was very happy, to say the least.  She got a nice helping of turkey, potatoes, and carrots.  It all worked out perfectly.

txsg nov 23 20174

Abby, “Mom, let me kiss you”.

Abby was beyond grateful for the food she inhaled.  Yes, inhaled.  We had a great Thanksgiving day, and at least for me, what I was the most grateful for was having Cynthia and Abby with me.  I hope you had a great Thanksgiving day

Abby Relaxing This Weekend

Posted on October 7, 2017 | 2 comments

MA oct 7 20171

In the majority of pictures I post, you see Abby working, but does she ever take some time off?  Yes, she does and I have plenty of pictures to prove that.

MA oct 7 20172

See what I mean?  My girl works hard, but she also takes plenty of naps in her favorite bed.  Yes, she has a few beds.

MA oct 7 20173

Abby is relaxing this weekend and whenever she has friends over they follow her lead.  Of course, this is after we have taken a nice long walk.  Enjoy your weekend.

Martha’s Vineyard And Abby

Posted on June 5, 2017 | 4 comments

A couple of weeks ago, we took Abby with us to Martha’s Vineyard and as you can see by the above picture, she was more interested in the food she managed to find in my bag than the beautiful scenery around her.

We got lucky because the day turned out to be beautiful and we had a chance to walk around and enjoy the weather.  When we got home, we were all exhausted, but happy.
