Well, that is a question that can only be answered once all factors are considered about the dog in question, therefore I’ll use Alex and her canine buddies as examples. Until early last year, I used to get Alex to run once or twice a week, but I stopped because the walks we take every…

Busy Week at Alex’s Place
This week has been pretty busy and we’ve had 2 new furry companions: Bear and Bingo. Our first one is this handsome 2 1/2-year-old boy, Bear. I think he might be the biggest dog we’ve taken care of so far. Because of his size, he is quite impressive, but he is very affectionate and playful….
Introducing Dieter, A Cute Vizsla
This is Dieter, a 2 1/2 year old Vizsla. When he is in his bed, he looks smaller than Alex. He was asleep, but woke up when he saw the flash. I know, I know, I should have let him sleep, but he is too cute not to photograph. Alex is so used to us…
Happy 11th Birthday Our Beautiful Alex
Alex turned 11 on May 5th, but because we had company we had to celebrate it on Monday. In the morning, for breakfast, I made Alex some stir-fry which she inhaled mixed with her kibble. In the afternoon, after she napped, we went to Petco and got some cupcakes, and a Nylabone. Once we got home,…
Saturday Morning After Our Walk
Right after we got back from our walk this morning, Alex, Gir, and Ellie, not featured in the above picture, decided to relax while Cynthia cooked us breakfast. Alex and Gir love to sunbathe as you can see here. Ellie, on the other hand, preferred to be away from the sun since she is a…
Walter Prefers To Hang Out Under The Table Rather Than His Bed
Tomorrow, Wednesday, will be 6 weeks of Alex being on limited walks and a lot of bed rest. Alex seems to be enjoying her bed rest. Walter, on the other hand, decided that the best place for him to hang out and fall asleep is under the table. I guess he does that because in…
A Lazy Sunday Afternoon
Alex, enjoying a well deserved nap. I envy her. I have very sensitive ears and even though I am asleep I can hear almost everything that is going on around me. But look at Alex. She is out like a light. Oliver, a Lhasa Apso, is our guard dog. He is the first one to…
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…

Mandy,http://shoefulofdrool.com/ , was kind enough to nominate All My Canine Companions for the Missy Award. Thanks from my pack to yours.

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…
