Annie's 4th Gotcha Day


Four years ago after an extensive search Dog Dad and Mom found me and brought me to live with my sister Katy. Mom gets very nostalgic about these days. I like them because we always get more treats.

We haven't been around much. Mom has been doing lots of craft blogging and we've been helping dog Dad work from home. It is lots of work being an office dog. He requires lots of supervision. Katy and I often trade of duties. We can't possibly imagine how he survived when he was away from the house.

We hope all of you are doing well with COVID restrictions.

Happy 12th Birthday Katy



Happy Birthday my sweet girl. It seems impossible to be writing that you are 12 today. I had to check twice to make sure I had the numbers right. How could my sweet baby have grown up so much???

Look Who Learned about the Front Yard


It has bothered Mom for years that bunnies don't seem to learn. There is plentiful clover in the front lawn that they seem to love and the front lawn is not fenced for dogs so we can't play with them. Certainly there are hazards for wild animals everywhere but the front yard offers more hiding places than the back where bunnies seem to see it as some kind of American Ninja Bunny course. You get clover if you win and potential death or bodily harm if you don't make the safe zone with your amazing leap. Some have paid the ultimate price for being too slow, not making the right obstacle choice, etc. This brings us back to why Mom gets so frustrated that they won't stay either in the front yard or in the yards that don't have pets.

So, she happily took this picture to show one with at least a moment of sense. It decided to go for the easy clover. No ninja practice today.

All is Well


Katy here. As you can see from her big smile Annie survived her teeth cleaning yesterday. She was a very good patient. The vet techs told dog Dad she never stopped smiling when she woke up from her cleaning. She was incredibly happy.

We thank you all for you powerful paw prayers.

The Spa has returned


This weekend we happily returned to the spa. Yes, I said happily. We needed it badly and it felt so good to return clean, trimmed, and oh so free of hair. Mom and Dad have been doing there best but there is nothing like a professional to do it up nice.



With social distancing we didn't get to have our normal hang out at the spa. It is good to gossip with the others but it was still good to be back.

As we mentioned Annie is getting her teeth cleaned tomorrow which means anesthesia. So if you'd all keep her in your doggy thoughts we'd be grateful.

Mom's Coach


It's exhausting coaching humans while they work out. You have no idea how hard we have to work to supervise, motivate, and make sure they don't break themselves.

Don't get me started on the noise this thing makes when it turns on that I have to be brave enough to endure. Then I have to make sure it doesn't attack me when Mom is on it making the pedals move. It is a dangerous assignment let me tell you. Katy and I trade off duties. The machine isn't noisy once it is on but it doesn't seem to bother Katy at all. She lays down by the door and leaves Mom to it. Me I know you need to watch this thing. It could turn on us at any moment. Don't any of you watch those machine movies where they suddenly take over.

Peek a Boo


I See You


Hi everyone. Katy and I have been very busy helping Dog Dad as he works from home. You can see us here trying to settle in as Dog Dad has moved where he's working to get better access to AC as the weather has gotten warmer since he came home to work.

We have become very good office dogs providing comfort and advice.

Annie has to have her teeth cleaned next week which requires anesthesia. So please keep her in your thoughts. It should be fine, but anesthesia is always a risk.

Mom is going to try to get back to posting here again.
