I really can’t believe that Willie celebrated his 6 month old birthday yesterday! It seems crazy to think that we have been together for 4 and a half months now, but at the same time, I can’t imagine not having him in my life. He celebrated his birthday by moving up to adult food and …
I called yesterday to book Willie’s puppy bath only to find out that he was too old for a puppy bath! Now, if I want to take him to a friendly pet store so that they can fight the bath battle, then I have to pay for a bath for an adult German shepherd! Yikes! …
I have to just stop and laugh at Willie sometimes. Like when he falls off the bed because he doesn’t know how close to the edge he is or when he runs into the leg of a chair because he’s so excited about good or when he totally bites it because he’s so excited to …
Since it has been so warm and the change was kinda drastic, I decided to take Willie for a morning hike to see how that would work out. We have season passes to Biltmore, so it provides for the perfect setting close enough to make it to work on time and get a little fix …
I’m a new puppy mom, so there are often times that I wonder if I am teaching Willie what well-trained dogs should know. In this sense, it’s been really helpful to have a group of experienced dog owners to consult at the dog park. So far, Willie knows: Go Potty Sit Wait What’s in your …
There’s nothing like an afternoon at the dog park…that is unless it takes you 45 minutes to get there. There is a park that leads into the dog park park and Willie and I often park at the neighboring park and walk/run to the dog park. It proves to be a good release of energy …
It’s amazing how time flies. I know that we all say this and we are all brought to a standstill at times being reminded of this, but I have to say this afternoon made me rethink how I spend my time. I rush around and worry about getting things done that really could wait for …
So, we’ve kinda developed a routine me and Willie. I try to work through lunch now and then come home in the early afternoon and take him to the dog park. He thinks it’s wonderful! As soon as I put his collar on, he is ready to go. His tail starts wagging and if I …
It was a goner before I even got there. How he got into my work bag and picked my favorite pen, I’ll never know, but the flap laid back and the tops of four of my five pens in the bag stood ready to help me work, but my favorite pen was gone. He hid …
When I think about 2 weeks, half a month, I don’t consider it a long time. Well, I didn’t consider it a long time. Until I got a puppy. This was the first night we brought him home and then had to take a trip to the emergency vet because he jumped off the couch. …
