It’s official, Trix is a giant puss. She’s stubborn as a mule, but a puss! We set off to go to the drug store that’s not far from here. We had to pick up a few things. When we left it was raining. But we didn’t have to go far, so I figured we could …

Odds And Ends And Updates
I had a few random thoughts on some things, so figured I’d throw ’em together and make a small post. Remember back when I said I would switch Trixie’s food? Well, the switch is complete, and boy does she seem to love her new food. Holy hell. She will suck that stuff back like it’s …
Your Best Friend Can Be Shared
How did I miss this story? Oh well, better late than never. I have talked about making sure things are in order for whatever guide dog I have after I died, but never in those arrangements would be a plan to have the dog buried with me, regardless of the dog’s health. but that’s exactly …

Paws In The Park
I’m just full of plugs this morning.

It sounds like a lot of fun. I’m …
It’s more Trixter Goodness!
I had a few thoughts about Trix, so thought I’d write them down so when I do write about her, it’s not a giant monster of doom. I talked about being worried about the number of times Trix has needed her anal glands expressed. Well, a few days after that, the foot-chewing increased again. It …
I Have A Brother-In-Law!
It’s Monday, and I’m still feeling kinda dopy and tired. I guess that’s to be expected after the crazy Saturday Steve and I had. Don’t worry, it was a good crazy! My sister got married! Yup, eek. I now have a brother-in-law. He’s a cool guy. They’ve been together a while, he’s been a friend …
The Teddy Bear Picnic Was A Blast
Back last Friday, I mentioned the Teddy Bear Picnic. Well, yesterday, it happened, and it was a lot of fun. We had lots of fun. We had bears wearing little glasses, bears with little white canes, lots of stuff. We had a model of a communication board for kids who have trouble speaking, we had …
Yummy Woman And The Three Bears
Does Patricia Torres want to end up like Donna Munson and Kelly Ann Walz? Does she? She will, if she keeps up this recreational feeding of wildlife bullshit. She feeds squirrels, birds and deer, and I guess a bear thought the stuff she was leaving out was mmm mmm good too. Then it choked on …
Rare And Awesome Guide Dog Moments
Yesterday was quite the day of rare happenings. First, I was able to explain to not one, but two different people the concept of why you shouldn’t pet a working dog, and they got it! They really got it! Second, a little tiny kid looked at me and quietly asked, “Can I…please…pet…your dog?” With a …
