Kiera, Graidy, Wink and Me
Riley is a picky eater. A very picky eater. I didn’t even know it was possible to have a dog that’s not totally food driven. Over the course of my life, I’ve lived with 20 dogs and this is a first for me.

1. Shoes put up high off the floor, out of reach of teething creatures.
2. Baby gates everywhere and there is no baby.
3. Dog toys and dog beds strewn about with reckless abandon.

I really really tried to wait a year. Best laid plans… The cycle of life begins again.

…Two dogs ago.
When I saw that tagline, I laughed and thought, yep, that was me. I used to be normal. Before I started adding more dogs and a cat to our animal family. My life used to be sane back then.
But life often has other plans for me. You can read about a couple of those plans here and here.
You see, as I have often written about, two dogs are the perfect number. For so … Read More
A big box from Amazon addressed to me showed up today. This deluxe dog bed was inside.
I did not order it.
Amazon has no record of sending it.
No one I know thinks it’s a good idea for me to get another dog so soon. And so no one I can think of who might have sent it, admits to it.
A sign from the universe that somewhere there’s a dog being that wants to come share its life … Read More
