I figured I’d post this here to spread the word any way I can. Remember back in that Trixie post where a dog came at us out of nowhere? That really scared the hell out of me. I thought about how isolated it is on that little stretch. I wondered what I would do if …

Jibber Jabber, Chit Chat, and Tech Talk
I don’t know what’s up with me right now, but I’m full of this unfocused, nervous energy. I’m about as distracted as Trixie after she just saw a pup she likes. I thought maybe, just maybe, I could write a post and get that energy out. So here’s some randomness…ooo! A squirrel! I find the …
Come Here Dumb Human. Quiet! Good Quiet.
Whenever I think about this, it makes me mad, not in the oh the world sucks kind of way, but in the holy shit some people can be irritating as hell kind of way. Hopefully when I write it down, it will make sense why it makes me mad. This happened yesterday at around noon. …
CP Arf
Oh boy. I have a small, funny story to tell about Trixie because I just like telling Trixie stories. Last week, I went to get my Level C first-aid certification. I figured I should have it, something else to put on my resume. Plus, I just thought it would be good to do, since I …

Trixie’s Been Home One Year!
I really hope this post doesn’t suck, I’m still really tired from taking a two-day first-aid course. But I couldn’t let this day pass without saying something. Trixie has been home exactly a year. Can anyone believe it? It sure feels weird to me, even though I know it’s true, and the date is burned …
Good Questions
I got asked two interesting questions about Trixie today that I thought deserved a post. First, I was in the bank waiting in line. From behind me I could hear a kid and his dad ooing and aaaing about Trixie. I eventually turned around and struck up a conversation. The kid said, “Is your dog …
Happy Birthday Dear Trixie And Company
Happy birthday to Tacoma, Tad, Talbot, Tarragon, Theda, Titan, Trooper, and of course, Trixie! It looks like, next to Trooper, Trixie got the best name of the bunch. In case you’re wondering, those are the dogs that make up Trixie’s whole litter. They were born April 9, 2005. Hopefully this birthday will be a lot …
Trixie Chit Chat
I think it’s time for another episode of let’s googoo and gaga about Trixie. They’re so much fun. I’ve never written about her giant burps she lets out after eating. Some of them sound like they came out of a person! I was home for Christmas and she burped and mom looked around to see …
