Harper and Bella settle in

The past couple of weeks flew by with Harper and Bella hanging out with Emmett and Lucas. For our visitors, it wasn’t easy, getting used to new people, new dogs, a new house, and a new routine, but they have really shined this past week. Harper and Emmett are a lot alike: food motivated, sleepy [...]

Emmett update

I realized today that after weeks of writing about nothing other than the cancer situation with Emmett, I failed to post the results. The surgery to remove the lump on his leg was successful. The oncologist called us an excruciating week after the surgery to let us know that all went well. The margins came [...]

Long weekend bliss

We have a blissful four-day weekend ahead of us. The weather is perfect, not too hot with just a hint of fall in the air. In addition to doing stuff around the house, I am going to undertake two puppy projects! First, I found this awesome video about teaching your dog to turn off the [...]

Puppy Punams

While we awaited the arrival of our nephew, we spent the week with Tank, Buster, and Otto – Emmett and Lucas’ cousins. During that time, we took dozens of pictures of all the pups. For lack of something better to write about today, I give you a photo essay of puppy punams!
