January 31, 2025: Healthy Goals

January 31, 2025: Healthy Goals

For the umpteenth time, I am witnessing yet another attempt for my dear companion to get in shape.    This one, I can not relate to because I  have never  had to worry about extra pounds.  In fact, I am quite the opposite, I am always told to gain a few pounds.   Anyhow, back to OUR mission because apparently, I am a huge part of her new healthy goal to lose quite a bit of weight.    This is…

I am so done with this shaggy face I have been forced to wear due to the frigid cold weather.   Seriously,   pretty soon you won’t be able to tell that I am a standard poodle.    I will look like just any other dog with my long furry face, not to mention my dirty coat.   At last, today is the day that I am promised to at least get my face shaved.   A dog has pride…

January 18, 2025

Have you ever felt a bit off and you can’t quite be sure what it is?  Well, as a dog, I know that I am not even expected to have off days.  But, I can’t seem to shake this odd feeling today.  Today, I heard someone ask Nancy how she is and she said, “I am fine, thanks!”   Nancy knew I would remain silent.    When my humans are off, then I am off a bit too.    I…

January 12, 2025: Mike’s Visit

I can barely contain my excitement over the visit from Nancy’s brother, Mike.    Here I always thought that he did not care for me until today.   He actually brought me some really huge delcious dog biscuits.  Not only that, but, he also held out his hand for me to take them.   Caught up in the thrill of the moment, I forgot to take a photo of us.   After he stayed and visited a few hours, he…

I woke early today feeling  the desire to write my blog.  When I am  inspired, I must act for it may be only a  fleetin g moment to capture!      Quickly dispersed thoughts as if after those sunrises that we view one minute and  float away the next.   I can always improvise! Perhaps that is what describes a dog’s life anyway.   Basically, we live mostly in the moment. We don’t sit and keep track of our human’s…

Happy New Year! January 1, 2025

Happy New Year! January 1, 2025

Happy New Year, 2025!   Even though Bobby McFerrin made the saying “Don’t Worry, Be Happy!” famous, I choose to think he learned that from a wise dog.     Please forgive me for pointing this out to you humans one more time.   Worry  is  a waste of your precious time because it is exhausting and extremely unhealthy.   While I am not one to focus on the past (especially if it is negative)  I do try to help…
