We’ve had different dogs for the past 5 weeks stay with us without a break, and during that time Alex had to share her two moms with all of them. Something very funny, ok., I found it funny you probably will not, was that once Walter left, she right away came to me and looked…

Josie Is Going Home Today
Josie is usually very energetic, loves, loves our walks and to say that she is a bundle of energy certainly does not do her justice, but that is all that comes to mind now. When I walk with her is usually for an hour or longer and she enjoys our walks, but this time that…
Josie Is Back!
Josie, a cute Weimaraner, is back, and she’ll be staying for a couple of days with us. Now Josie can be my walking partner. When we go out for a walk, Josie gets distracted very easy, therefore what I do is tap my leg to get back her attention. She is interested in everything,…
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…
Nap Time For My Canine Companions – Alex, Walter And Roxy
After our walk and breakfast, I did dishes and I asked Cynthia to hang out in the living room with Alex, Walter and Roxy until I was done. Once I was finished, I went to see what these kids were doing, and here they all are: Roxy asleep on one of her favorite spots. Every…
Sunday Morning – Alex And Walter
Well, Alex will be taking a long break from walking, running, and playing for about 2 months or longer. It depends on how well her front right paw heals. The vet advised me not to rush it, but rather let it heal with time and minimal activity. These 10 days, vet recommended for Alex to only get…
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…
BBQing In January
Yes, I know. You are probably thinking, “Why would anybody be bbqing in January?” Specially when we live on the east coast, but on my defense I’d like to say and point out that Cynthia offered to bbq, and I accepted her offer. The day was very sunny, but cold and there were two sous chefs on…
Walking Around Our Neighborhood
Today, Saturday, is a beautiful and sunny day so rather than taking a long walk in the evening like I usually do, I decided to walk in the early afternoon with Alex and Marka and enjoy the weather. This is right before I cleaned them a little bit: hair brushing and paw cleaning with wipes. …
Fatty Tissue Tumors on Older Dogs – Part II
I cannot complain about this week, well maybe I could, but I am not going to because I got a call from Alex’s vet with great news: Her two little lumps are nothing more than fatty tissue tumors, which according to her vet are quite common in senior dogs. What a relief! She did tell…
