September 1, 2008

(www.meowbarkblog.com) — Ty wasn’t even home for 12 hours before we had to rush him to the emergency vet. This dog is terrified of baby gates, so the first night he was home, we put him in my office with his e-collar on and put up a baby gate and figured he’d be just fine [...]

(www.meowbarkblog.com) — The night before his surgery, Ty was very sad, partly because he couldn’t eat after 8 and he looks forward to evening treats, but mostly because he was in a lot of pain. I got it in my head that I needed to take a lot of pictures of him Monday night in [...]

Best “play dead” ever. We have to add this to the list! Every time we try to get Pickles to shake, she just bites us. Sigh. I met a dog at the airport who could sneeze on cue. It was adorable… This is not the same dog. Does she growl at him at the end???

February 15, 2008

Well, if this isn’t irony, I don’t know what is. I came home from being gone maybe an hour, and found the house in utter disarray. Now, before I get into the details, it’s important to point out that with as well as things have been going since Bark Busters came, we’ve started leaving the [...]
