For her birthday, Alex got an off white Nylabone. Walter’s parents brought a brand new white Nylabone. I gave Alex her off white Nylabone and the white one to Walter, but they both looked at their respective bones, and then went for the one that did not belong to them. Go figure! Walter seemed delighted…

Walking In Annapolis, Maryland
On Saturday, we, Cynthia and I, Alex is still on bed rest, met Ann Greene, dog trainer, pet parents, and their fury kids in Annapolis, MD. I was quite shocked because Cynthia is not a morning person, but she was more than willing to go with me and walk for an hour with these beautiful…
Missy Award Nominated
Mandy,http://shoefulofdrool.com/ , was kind enough to nominate All My Canine Companions for the Missy Award. Thanks from my pack to yours. Three things are required of me, and that is to answer two questions and to link back to http://ivonnemontijo.wordpress.com/2013/02/23/the-missy-award/ The questions are: What inspires me to write? I write anytime I feel passionate about…
Do Dogs Watch TV?
Yes, some dogs do watch tv. Today, Sunday, we were watching tv, The Little Rascals, and I could not believe that Walter was also watching tv with us. He’d follow their movements and would bark when he saw something that, in my opinion, excited him. Alex usually just sleeps and does not care for what’s…
Big Dogs And Little Dogs
I always thought that Roxy would always be the smallest dog I’d ever have the opportunity to pet sit, but boy was I wrong. The new title goes to Gir, a min pin. By the way, the reason why they are both sitting on that particular spot is because there is a vent to the…
Walking Your Dog In Cold Weather
It was supposed to be 20 degrees today here in Maryland, but when we went out to walk with Alex it felt more like -5. If you are planning to walk your dog in cold weather, please make sure you bundle her up, you too of course, and make the walk a little shorter than…
A Love Affair Between A Human And A Canine
Time really goes fast for me when we have dogs staying with us. Why? Who knows. Anyway, Jupiter will be going back home tomorrow and to say that we’ll miss him would be an understatement. He is an excellent dog. Docile, friendly, and very loving. Now, what I was unaware of, of course, was that…
Alex Sprained Her Leg
This week I went to run some errands and when I came back, Alex greeted me with so much enthusiasm that she ended up hurting her front right leg. We usually walk for about 40-60 minutes twice a day, but since Thursday she is on bed rest. Alex’s favorite pastime is sleeping, but I don’t…
Yes, Dogs Also Get Cold
My girl, Alex, and Sienna, both seem to get cold very easy. Whenever they are cold, they look directly at me or Cynthia as if to say, “I am cold”, and this is our cue for us to bundle up both of them. Sienna loves when we wrap her in a blanket. If you decide…
Nylabones For Dogs
My girl, Alex, loves to chew on nylabones. I usually buy nylabones of different sizes and flavors and leave them all over the house so she and the dogs that stay with us can enjoy them. Alex is a chewer and she’ll probably be like that for the rest of her life since she is…
