Good Boy
We’ve had some old cows and many of our heifers we are selling around my house lately. That means that for Bravo, he’s been getting used to seeing and hearing them through the chain link fence. While Eden won’t let them eat right next to the fence, it doesn’t seem to bother Bravo. Since Eden…

#TBT: Exertional Rhabdomyolysis, v.2.0
THIS WAS FIRST POSTED OCTOBER 3, 2008. HONESTLY, ONE OF THE WORST DAYS I EVER HAD. Sounds yucky, huh? Well, I can attest with my hand over my heart, tears in my eyes, and a sinking heart, that it is much more than yucky to witness. What is it? Basically it is when your dog…

Formal Introduction
Finally. I don’t know why it’s so hard for me… but naming dogs is sooo… painful! I start lists and amend them and add to them and research on the internet… and look up meanings of names and search the Choctaw dictionary and end off somewhere researching words from the 1600’s! There’s been: Josie. I…

First Day
Instagram and nice friends saved me time and money! Noticing that a friend had posted a beach picture from Oregon, I texted B. and asked if she’d be interested in bringing my puppy home for me. She was… with Mary from Shepherd’s Way English Shepherds willing to meet her… things were set! “Merlin” was a…
