Doggy Adolescence: I'm not such a happy dog owner right now

Doggy Adolescence: I'm not such a happy dog owner right now
The featured photo is a picture of “Queen” Isadora (Izzy) on her throne.  She has recently de-throned Wigglebutt Duncan from his favorite chair.  All this with no bloodshed in the war of chairs that is going on between them.  Dunkie, a more mature 4 year-old, seems resigned.  But this is not why I am not...

Engineer who loves his dog creates ... well, just watch!
I’m not a big fan of videos in general.  Because I have to concentrate so hard at work, I seem to have the attention span of a gnat when I am home or not working.  So it is remarkable that I not only watched this fascinating YouTube once when I came across it on StumbleUpon... Read more »

A Chipped Dog is a Happy Dog
Today we went to the Wauconda Dog Exercise Area in Lake County.  It’s a nice dog park for those times you don’t want to cope with a lot of mud and water, and there are plenty of cut trails to wander along with your dogs.  It was a warm day for January in Chicago, but... Read more »
