They just have this way of loving unconditionally. When I walk in the door, they greet me as if I have been gone forever, even if it has only been 30 minutes. How could anyone possibly resist that?
Even though physically the puppies are all grown up now, they still play and act like puppies. They [...]
Anyone that knows me at all, already knows that I have a very special place in my heart for animals, especially dogs. Living with my daughter Haley, is what I would imagine it would be like to live with Maya Dolittle. Animals of all types just seem to be drawn to her.
Every animal we have [...]
The puppies are growing so fast that it is hard to remember anymore that they used to be so small they almost fit in one hand. They are 4 1/2 months old now. Their personalities have remained the same.
Jack (a.k.a. Chunk) still has to be bribed with food if you want to take his picture, [...]
Raising two puppies together must be a little like having hyperactive twin two year olds in the house. If you take your eyes of them for even a moment, they find their way into trouble.
Chunk loves chewing the cord to the electric blanket the moment I look the other way. Thankfully Spring is coming so [...]
Sassy’s Legacy Lives On (Click Picture)
We accomplished the impossible and brought two of Sassy’s puppies back home, where they belong. I would like to reintroduce you to the newest members of our family, Chunk and Lady Katherine.
I added Sassy’s shadowed image to this homecoming picture, as I know she will always be there in our hearts.
She [...]
From the day Sassy entered our lives, she was extremely protective of us and our property. Tonight her overwhelming need to protect us cost her life.
As I was opening the back door to go get soda out of my truck, some sort of animal wandered into the yard area from the woods. Sassy began growling [...]
Thanks For Being A Part Of My Life!
It’s 4 am when I hear a very faint whining coming from somewhere.
As I walk in to check on the puppies, the whining stops, but I continue on to check anyway, not trusting that Sassy isn’t sitting on one.
I see a bunch of sleeping puppies.
1 puppy
2 puppy
3 puppy
4 puppy
5 puppy
6 puppy
7 puppy
8 puppy
Awwww…. 8 sleeping [...]
It’s been a little over two weeks now. As much as I like to complain that we have puppies everywhere, I have already fallen madly in love with these brats. You can’t help but smile from ear to ear when you spend any time at all watching them.
With faces that only a mother could love, [...]
Sassy was fascinated with motherhood for all of two days. Or, perhaps she was simply too tired those first two days to argue about the whole thing. In any event, her intrigue with the puppies is over.
She spends every waking moment finding ways to hide nine different puppies in nine different locations and then promptly [...]
When our dog Sassy adopted us, I never imagined the joy and companionship she would bring to our lives. Yes, my wording here was intentional. We did not initially choose Sassy. She chose us. Stray animals just seem to find their way to our house. It took Sassy all of 15 minutes to work her [...]
I am not much of a dog person.
I have always been a cat person.
For many years I had a HUGE pure black, long haired cat. He had an attitude that is a lot like mine. Every major challenge I faced in my life, he was right there beside me. He just seemed to know when [...]
