I know, it’s a bit early to be complaining about the cold weather since we’re still in the fall season, but that is not going to stop me from doing it anyway. I’ve realized that even Abby and Charlie tend to want to sleep longer once it starts getting cold. What changes or activities do…

Do Dogs Need Sweaters And Blankets In Winter?
Yes, dogs need sweaters and blankets once the weather starts turning cold specially if your dog has short hair, she is a puppy or senior, and also if she is recuperating from injury/illness. Abby and Charlie both wear a sweater and sometimes jacket when we go out, they both have short hair, and a sweater…
Dogs And COVID-19: Living One Day At A Time
By the way, One Day At A Time, was one of my favorite shows which also includes the new version of this 1975 TV series. Did I just date myself? Seriously speaking, this is certainly a trying time for all of us, and for some people a pet is the only companion they have, therefore…
Our Unpacking Odyssey In Annapolis, MD
This past weekend our family continued to unpack boxes, and as I was coming up from the basement, this is what I saw. I just couldn’t stop laughing. Abby loves to smell the boxes before and after we open them. Why? That’s something only our girl Abby could answer for you. We hope you enjoyed…
Memorial Day And Moving 2020
Let me start by saying thanks to our military personnel-that includes the canine units- and their family for all the sacrifices they make for us every day. I love living in Crofton, MD but we finally found a house suited to our wants and needs in Annapolis so we’ll be busy this holiday moving our…
Nostalgia And Dogs
Looking at pictures of my Alex and the dogs that we’ve taken care of throughout the years filled me with nostalgia and gratitude. Alex lived 13 years and she was the most amazing dog ever, and although when we lost her we were devastated, I wouldn’t trade the time we had with her for anything…
Getting Settled in Maryland With My Pack
Yes, that’s how tired Abby looked after helping us unpack. By the way, she is lucky since we are not unpacking everything. Remember to provide your canine companion a bed and some blankets. Sorry Abby, but I had to capture that facial expression. We are taking nice walks except when the days don’t permit us…
Abby’s Trip To Canada – Part 2 of 2 (Quebec)
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. We were all ready to go back to Massachusetts after visiting Canada, but I think Abby a bit more because she watched us carefully…
Siesta Time And Dogs
Regardless of the size or breed of dog I’ve taken care of, one thing I’ve realized they all love to do is nap. We, humans, sometimes feel guilty of taking a nap, yours truly is one of those, but as time goes by I am starting to feel less and less guilty. Some dogs like…
Safe Dog Walking Temperatures During Summer Time
Summer time here in Massachusetts is great because there is low humidity, and we don’t get many hot days like in Maryland. But just so you know, I still miss Maryland. Anyway, Abby and I get up early in the morning for our first walk, around 6am, in order to make sure that my girl…
