Three years ago today we took in our wonderful Jetta, one year old and afraid of everything, into our hearts as a rehome. She and her "sister" Sophie, who was five in late May (also a rehome to us when she was young) have made every day a day full of love, fun, and of course sometimes...

It's that time of the year again and my husband is determined to have a backyard lawn so he is putting in a run on the side of our home. I found an old thread that talks about pea gravel or wood chips but wanted to know what everyone's opinions are. I know my dogs won't chew the wood chips, we...

I am a Big East fan.

We spent 14 hours at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan yesterday while my daughter Meaghan had surgery for hip dysplasia (yes, humans can have this too). Basically the doctors cut her hip apart in two places and then realigned the pieces. The operation took 7 hours, when we finally...

With out writing a book, today at the park my couch potato Sophie broke up a fight between a shepard and a rottie by coming out of no where and barreling into the agressor, knocking her out of the way and givng the owners enough time to get control of the dogs. The regulars at the prk thought...

We are adding a male (neutered) to our home that has two females (spayed). Somehow in the past 30 years of owning a bunch of dogs, we have never had a male. Anything I should know? All are adults.

I spent the day inside decorating while my hubby started outside. After an hour I took a break. Next thing I know there is tandem barking in the front of the house. Well, Sophie and Jetta never bark in the house so I ran to see what was the matter, only to find two cowering dogs, pinned up...

Yesterday, Sophie, a very laid back newf, went to the back door once in a while and would start barking. Assuming she wanted to go out, I would open the door, but she wasn't interested. After a while she would do it again, same routine, but wouldn't go out. This went on for a couple of hours...
