Interior Decorating Doggie Style

We really like to hang out in the office, but so far, we’ve been prevented from helping with the remodel.  Today we were able to get in & pick our spots in the office.  We like to have our own spaces to take a nap & stash toys.  Since we have to share a space, […]

Helping with the office

Maezi & I are helping with the office.  At least we’re trying.  Every time we go for the paint, we are shooed away.  The dog gate was put up in the doorway & we were on the wrong side!  How would we explore the paint rollers?  How would we play with the blue masking tape?  […]

15 minutes

If I could write code, it would have been ingeniously brilliant…because  I would have worked it out to cause a cascade of dog toys to be delivered to every household with a dog – or a cat.  It would just annoy a cat to receive a dog toy… What’s up, now with hacking the tweeting? […]

Just another lazy Sunday

Ah…Sunday morning…we’ve had our breakfast, Maezi’s tried to steal some coffee, we patrolled the back yard…we’ve been very busy this morning.

Happy Cousins & the Laughing Jackal

So last night, we were hanging out with Mom, watching “Dogs 101” about very rare breeds.  I liked the New Guinea Singing Dog, & Maezi liked the Thai Ridgeback – until she didn’t – then she started talking back to it.  She didn’t think they were friendly enough, except for Magic, the one that surfed. […]

Happy Barkin’ Birthday!

So…Maezi has just completed her “Terrible Twos”.   Since she’s 3 now, maybe she’ll stop pulling my hair & stealing my toys & ambushing me when I’m napping…oh well, maybe not. The best thing about parties at our house is that everyone gets a toy.  I like the purple – although, I’m not entirely sure what […]

Dog Days of Summer

The insects chirp, the birds twirp & tweet flitting in the sky, the fan whirs in oscillation.  The Refrigerator hums & the local riffraff starts the Bark Fest down the hill. . . . Ah, the sounds of summer.  I was hanging out on the patio, when I was startled by a really BIG bee.  […]

Beat the heat – Tip #3

It was 109 degrees here today.  I didn’t even know there were that many degrees.  But Maezi & I have a sure-fire treat to beat the heat.  Put your nylabones in the refrigerator till cool… then gnaw. Mmmmmm.

Beat the heat – Tip #2 – Ambushed?

So – I’m minding my own business, out in the grass this morning, planning to do some ‘business’ when I’m ambushed by a wiley invisible adversary.  I never know when it will strike, but it is very stealthy.  It gets me at least once a week.  I have no idea why it picks on me… […]

Beat the Heat – Tip #1

Hot dog! Getting hot already?  Me, too.  For some scientifically unexplainable reason, our yard exists in some heat vortex, where it is about 1,000,000 degrees hotter than anywhere else in the valley.  Ok, so maybe I exaggerate.  But only a little bit. This summer is blazingly hot & also cloudily cool…ah…I loooove the overcast days.  […]
