Please click on the link below, and you will find a website with a petition to Gov. Steve Brasher. This petition is to hold all the animal shelters in the state of Kentucky accountable to Kentucky government.
This is a long overdue action. I read about so much abuse and neglect going on in various areas of Kentucky, in shelters of all places where these helpless animals should be protected.
If you feel strongly like I do about it, click on the link below and…

Pugpalooza is coming to town. Pugs are party animals and they love a good time. No one enjoys food, fun, and hanging out with new friends like a pug and that is what Pugpalooza is all about.
Pugpalooza is an annual gathering of Pug people and their dogs for fun and a good cause, but this fundraising event isn’t just limited to pugs. All breeds of dogs and their human friends are invited to attend. Activities include a lot of doggie socialization, costume contests, pug races, raffles,…

About a month ago, we (correction, my husband) started letting the girls sleep downstairs at night. I didn't like it because it was Sydney who stayed downstairs and she is truly our watch dog. If my watch dog is downstairs napping, who is watching out...
So we have tried to get her to stay upstairs now but the dog beds we currently have are pretty flimsy. I got them in a Friday After Thanksgiving sale as a trial basis. I didn't want to spend a lot of money in case the girls wouldn't…

I ordered Sydney and Addy's medication from
1800PetMeds yesterday (They are on FrontLine Plus and Interceptor). Interceptor - a heartworm medication - is precription only. The Frontline Plus - flea & tick - is OTC. I take my dogs to Hillside Animal Clinic in Floyds Knobs which according to Google …

I posted earlier that we had a bit of a
wind storm here. Well, we are going on 144 hours of
not having electricity. Saying it is an inconvenience is slightly understating the problem. They project that everyone will be up by Saturday Midnight. I don't know if that means tonight or early Sunday morning. I am hoping that means tonight.
Sydney and Addy are affected by it as well. The first…

Well, we survived the
storm that hit the
midwest. We still do not have electricity. Sydney and Addy definitely thought it was weird when we were getting ready this morning in the dark.
As I have written in previous blogs
here and…

Thank goodness for the rain today. My yard & garden desperately need the rain. It is great to feel the cool weather that the rain is bringing in too.
Sydney does not like the rain. She will
not go out in it at all. I suspect she some how associates rain with thunder. As you might
remember, Sydney does not like…

I am
not a morning person. I have tried for years to become a morning person so I could get more done, workout and so on. But I am at my best when I can get up around 9:30 am.
The girls are morning dogs. I don't know what I have done in a past life to deserve having morning dogs, but I think they were sent to torture me through sleep deprivation. This morning was no exception.
Give you a layout of where the dogs sleep, Sydney is at the foot of the bed on my side of…

When we first got Sydney, I was a running hobbyist. I would never use the terms 'I am a runner'. But I have run several road races and use running as a way to get in shape. I had seen several runners running with their dogs and it always looked so peaceful.

Once I got Sydney, I wanted to make her into a 'running dog'. We started off pretty early. I would put her on leash and we would take off....meaning she was pulling me rather…

On Sunday, we took Sydney and Addy, and my parents dog Ella, out to Deams Lake.
Deams Lake is a state park on the outskirts of Borden, Indiana. We like to take the dogs up there and get them in the water and play. If you ask Sydney & Addy if they want to go swimming, they freak out with excitement. What was great about this time was even Sydney wanted to get in the water. She was whining and get fussy and…

There is a lot of
discussion on whether animals have personalities. As you can probably guess, I am of the opinion that they
do have personalities. Sydney & Addy could be a case study (if anyone is interested).
Sydney is the Type A personality. She is what I like to call the 'mama' dog. She is that one that makes sure you are okay if you are upset. She is very protective of the house. She loves structure and…

Sydney is a our
black lab. In lieu of her 2nd birthday this week (it is Wednesday, the 23rd), I thought I would talk a little bit about her and how she got her name.

Sydney was our first dog and I did not have a clue on what to name her. We saw her when she was around 4 weeks old. She was the runt of the litter so she fit into my husband's…

As I noted in my previous
blog, we were trying to get Sydney to not become as anxious as she normally does around fireworks. The vet gave us an
over-the-counter herbal remedy to help calm her down. Sydney weighs approximately 70 pounds and received 10 drops, 3 times a day.
The bottle looked just like eye drops. The vet…

I have had several people comment on how I got the girls to act so well for the photos in the
first blog. Well, it was a small feat and took us about an hour to get a couple of shots. When we first put our 'backdrop' (I use the term loosely). Sydney went and laid right down on it. I am sure she thought it was another blanket she could use!

So…
