Whenever I fill out captchas, like for blogger, I think you know, some of those might be cool dog names. LOL. So I’ve been compiling a list of the more interesting ones. I don’t think I’d ever actually use any of these as dog names, but perhaps it’d be fun. — Fogypete Parta Sersesti Protom [...]

Well, the weather looks like it’s finally turning around! We’ve had a super cold April. Now it’s finally May, and the weather-guessers are saying that it should be in the 70s next weekend. Woot! I’m excited because, of course, our agility trial is outdoors. This trial seems to end up being cold most of the [...]

It always hurts, doesn’t it? And the pain never really goes away. You don’t get over it, you just get used to it. I think that’s how the saying goes. I can’t believe it’s been 11 years since my Kipper dog died. 11 years and one day. I get sad looking at his pictures, and [...]

I think it’s true that both humans and dogs both have food issues. I mean… my dogs are in good shape. They are not fat, they are not skinny. They get enough to eat, but they sure don’t think so. If it were up to them, they’d all be super fat and happy eating all [...]

It’s time for spring flowers! I took Levi and Tatum for a walk a few days ago, and brought the camera, and took this picture of spring flowers. I am so ready for spring. And it’s just been cold and blustery here lately. I want to get out and train the dogs where it’s warm, [...]

I’ve been wondering lately if my dogs can think words. Surely they can think sounds. I mean, making sounds to ones-self is a pretty basic ability. I don’t see why other animals can’t do the same thing. Maybe they can’t, I guess we probably will never know, but I like to assume that animals can [...]

My experience with the Danish-Swedish Farmdog Club of America (DSFCA) has been, for the most part, negative. I just want to post about my experiences so anyone else thinking of joining can see my point of view. Back in January of 2009 I was looking for a Farmdog to buy. The first place I found [...]
