You know what’s sad? This year, I failed to blog about Trix on any of her big days, which is a horrible shame. I made a promise to myself that I would always have a post up about her marking each of her dog days and birthdays and anniversaries of her coming home with me. …

My Latest Freaky Trixie Dream
I had a really freaky dream last night so figured I’d write it down. I dreamed I came into a store with Trixie, and someone else’s service dog attacked Trix. In the confusion, nobody could figure out which dog was the aggressor, and both of us were saying it wasn’t our dog. So, for some …
GDB Online Auction
I just got news of this, so figured I’d put it up. GDB is holding its first online auction to raise funds. There are lots of cool weekend getaways, gift baskets, and other stuff up for grabs. If you want to have a look at what they’ve got, pop on over to their catalogue. Bidding …
Ro’s Partner In Crime
I mentioned a while ago that Ro was headed off to guide dog school. Well, she finally got her net up on Friday, and announced to the world that she’s training with a yellow labby boy named Jayden. She also announced that I am one of the lucky ones who won the guide dog guessing …
Sit! Stay…In This Cell. Good Boy.
The story of Mario Duane Porter getting charged for telling a police dog to sit wasn’t much of a story, but it did make me think of a couple funny ones of my own. Back when I was a camp counsellor, long before I’d given getting a guide dog serious thought, there was this camper …
Steve And I Go Audio
Steve and I were feeling silly and inspired, so we decided to do something new. I’m not sure if this is a success or a failure, I guess whoever dares to go exploring will tell us. Because Ro got all cute and made me a happy birthday YouTube video, we decided to make a recording …
>Booboo Dog Gets A Post
>I’m feeling all sappy about the Trixter, so I thought I’d write about her. I would have had this up yesterday, but it got kinda busy and I ran out of time. I don’t know if I’ve ever written about how much cooler it is to go to the mall with a dog than it …
More Reasons The Trixter Is A Genius
A couple of days ago, I had something happen that just had to go into the Trixie brag files. On Thursday, Huppy’s mom and I decided we’d go get the landlady some chocolates since she was leaving and would no longer be our landlady. But it was coldcoldcold out there, and there was no way …
Trixie Waggles Onto the Blog Again
I’ve been meaning to write a little dog post for a while now. The apartment building is getting a whole new carpet on all the floors. So, they have completely ripped up the carpet in the hall. They’re fast for sure, they’re already laying underpad today. I wasn’t sure what Trix would think of the …
The Walk From Hell
Ok, I just came back from the walk from hell. I figure something good has to come out of it, so I’m going to blog about it, in the hopes that it will help people be more helpful and less likely to get yelled at. Let me just describe what happened, and then I’ll break …
