Recently, while admiring my pups, a woman asked if Mia was mixed with another breed. We don’t know for sure, but we’ve assumed she was a purebred German shepherd. I asked the woman why she asked, and she thought Mia looked part Husky! She wasn’t always this gray. Who knew that as they get older, seniorContinue reading “Little-known fact about senior shepherds”

Our Christmas Tradition
Every year we take the dogs to a tree farm and pose in front of our tree before Rob cuts it down. Following on my earlier post this week, Leo continues to impress me. He sat down, even lay down, while I set up the tripod. People walked by, and I did reward him withContinue reading “Our Christmas Tradition”
Unicorn and Dragonwood
Mia looked especially like a unicorn during her last acupuncture. Or maybe she was a duocorn, since she had two needles on her head. Afterward, I took the doggies to Dragonwood Beach to see our favorite dragonhead driftwood. Join us in BlogPaws’ Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop!

Dogging up the new car
When I bought a new Honda six months ago, I didn’t trade in the old one, because it was so dogged up inside that 1) the trade-in value was negligible, and 2) I didn’t want to dog up the new Honda HRV. So we continued to shuttle the dogs around in the old Honda Fit.Continue reading “Dogging up the new car”
Dog Park Art
While I’ve been trying to convince the Internet that saying Police Lives Matter as a response to Black Lives Matter is racist, and explaining that it’s not helpful to try to be inclusive by saying All Lives Matter, Rob has been creating Dog Park Art.

Girls like flowers
After 14 springs in Washington state, I guess I don’t have to go to the tulip fields every April. Fortunately, Mia and I saw some color in the beds along Mount Vernon’s newish Skagit River Walk.

Surf’s Up with the Pups
Just kidding. They don’t swim. A better title would have something to do with the dead crabs littering the rocky beach. We are so lucky to live in a place where we can regularly find safe places to play with our pups off leash, both in the snow, and on the beach! (But see Monday’s post aboutContinue reading “Surf’s Up with the Pups”

Temple of the Dog
I recently had Lasik surgery.* Contact lenses had become really uncomfortable, so I preferred wearing glasses, but they interfered with my ability to take pictures using a DSLR. (Not to mention they got rained on and fogged up all the time.**) That’s one of the reasons I’ve been slacking on taking pics of my pups.Continue reading “Temple of the Dog”
