Here is my last batch of Tansy observations, these are things I noticed she learned while I was dealing with the captain. Here was a sad pattern that I noticed Tansy would pick up on. Before I was ill, as soon as I would finish brushing my teeth, she would go nuts. This was because …

Great Gobs Of Tansy Updates, Part II
I still have a mountain of Tansy-related ideas. Let’s keep truckin’. In another post, I said I wanted to train Tansy to come to a whistle. Well, a week later, I got to see how I was doing. And wow, it was powerful. I would blow that whistle, and Tansy would move heaven and earth …
Great Gobs of Tansy Updates, Part I
I’m terribly behind on Tansy updates. It’s bad. How can I go for 6 months without writing a Tansy post? Oh, well, I did have the captain chasing me around for 4 of those months. Well, I guess it’s time to catch up now. This might take a couple of posts. Tansy has inherited some …
My Tangle With Tripe
Holy crap, I think this is the first audio from our Kitchener place. Isn’t that scary? A little background. A while ago, Brad took a gamble and bought these cans of tripe to feed Trix along with her regular food. What is tripe? Well, basically the stomach of an animal that eats grass and things. …
The Hounds On The Bus Say “That’s My Stop,” All Around The Town.
I saw this story of a dog who rides the bus to the dog park alone, and I smiled, even though I had lots of questions, which have been answered. None of them, by the way are how does she know where to get off? Both Tansy and Trix would indicate when we had arrived …

2014: Goodbye And Good Riddance
It’s mid January, and I feel like I have to write the usual holiday wrap-up/year in review post. I feel like this will be the shortest one ever because both the holidays, and the year, feel like they have been snatched and tainted. Getting to my family’s Christmas was coloured with a bit of Carin-style …
Now There’s a Dog Who Really Hates Baths
I think I got the right video out of the stack. Eek. If my dog growled like this after a bath, I’d be scared as hell of her. Maybe it’s less scary because I think that dog is small, but still. Holy crap!
Shoot Once, Get Shot Twice
Yuck! I can’t imagine being the woman in this story. She woke up to things going bump in the night, and she found a strange man going bump and grind on her balcony. Then he broke her window and stole her dog…really? He stole her dog? What kind of dog was it? Was it one …
The Self-Stealing Car
A couple of nights ago, I had a really weird dream. At first I didn’t think it was weird enough to post, but it drifts through my mind a lot, so hey, maybe it needs a place. It appears to be set in the time when I was in high school and I’m living at …
Merry Christmas And All That Stuff
Since I’m’ posting this today, this song makes a good soundtrack. Yeah, it’s December 23 and I don’t know where the time has gone. Somehow, despite my battles with the captain, I still managed to get my Christmas shopping done, although it was a little closer to the wire than I would have liked…and the …
