I walked back to the bedroom for some reason earlier today, and this was the sight that greeted me.
They were EVER so comfortable. Raven raised her eyes to look at me, and right away I was reminded of that old adage…
“Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.”
Now, I don’t know if my girlies are familiar with that adage, [...]
We don’t let Shiloh sleep with us at night because she’s such a spaz. She will do well for the first half hour or so, then she goes from bed to bed, putting her cold nose on whichever body part is exposed, because she’s JUST… SO… BORRRRRRRRRRRRED!!!!!
Go ahead and scoff, but I think my border collie understands spoken English. I have proof!
It’s a German shepherd infestation!
Why bother making the damn bed in the morning if a German shepherd is gonna waltz into the bedroom and rearrange it to her liking?
Shiloh took a PERFECTLY made bed, scratched up the blankets, and made a DOG nest for herself.
A guy can’t win these days.
The pain in my left leg and ankle is subsiding and the swelling has gone down some. I don’t know if it’s the heavy dosing of ibuprofen or black cherry juice. I’ll keep doing both until the damn leg pain is completely cleared up.
Gail got up at 12:30 when I did to see if there [...]
It was a noble experiment. But it turns out that Doggie Gitmo is a necessity.
As we’ve discussed in the past, we let both doggies in to the bedroom with us at night. Raven, the border collie, generally gets right down to sleep. Shiloh, our silly 3-year old German Shepherd, generally feels the need to dink [...]
Is it SAFE to make your bed? Are you SURE? Have you CHECKED for DANGER? Do you KNOW for a FACT that there are NO DANGEROUS ANIMALS lurking about — concealed, hidden, waiting to strike?
Do yourself a favor. Check again.
FOR GOD’S SAKE!
CHECK AGAIN!!!
Gail was overrun and attacked by dogs. She was eaten alive.
No, that’s not what really happened.
Raven (the black one) smelled something under the stove. Shiloh went to see what she was digging at and got involved. And it was clear that they were both going to keep digging and digging and digging at the base [...]
A blight on doggie rights throughout the world has been eliminated. Doggie Gitmo is Closed!
Shiloh has shown over the last several weeks that she can be (more-or-less) trusted to have free run of the house when we’re in bed or away. And I’ve been banging my legs on the narrow gate trying to make my [...]
I don’t know if this is something to brag about. But it seems I have some sort of magic touch when it comes to getting our 3-year old German shepherd to poop in the yard like she’s supposed to.
Gail is generally the dog superintendent around here. She has a t-shirt that says so.
And at any [...]
Poor Shiloh! Her mommy was busy taking down the Christmas stuff and locked the doggies in the kitchen to keep them out of her way. Raven, being a brownnoser, just laid there quietly behaving herself. But Shiloh decided it would be best to let her mean daddy know just how displeased she was by his [...]
The idea for this came about innocently enough. We were wondering what the dogs would do if someone tossed them a hard-boiled egg. Would they think it’s a ball, or would they instantly recognize it as food and eat it.
Well, the great questions of science are always answered through experimentation. So, that’s what we did. [...]
I was really exhausted last night. That good kind of tired when bed feels like a soft, billowy cloud waiting to drift you off to happy sleepy-bye land! I think I was out five minutes after my head hit the pillow.
Woke up once… saw that it was 4:45 am, scoffed at the idea of getting [...]
