    Happy 4th! Now Hug Your Dog!

    Happy Fourth of July friends! And yes, it’s time to hug your dog, or cat. If the cat will let you. Fireworks have been a part of the July 4th holiday as long as any of us can remember. Yeah, the memes have been pretty funny but also very thought provoking. It can be hard…

    I Think The Time Is Right

    This week we started the search for a new dog. It felt like it was time. For those of you who don’t know, our Beagle, Oscar, past away almost a year ago. This past February we made the difficult decision to put our beloved Golden Retriever, Baxter, down. “Let the grieving process take it’s course.”…

    I’ll Miss You Friend

    I’m flooded with memories today. Memories of my wonderful friend Baxter. We had to let Baxter go last night. He was sick. He was not eating. He couldn’t walk at the end and we knew he wouldn’t want to live like this. Priscilla and Matthew said goodbye for all of us as we’re all miles…

    Woof Wednesday- One Final Time

    Hi everybody! I’m Baxter, Oscar’s friend, and I just wanted to say goodbye to my buddy. If you don’t know, my friend went to sleep Saturday night and then didn’t wake up in the morning. He had been real sick and had trouble breathing. The medicine they put him on did all kinds of stuff…

    Woof Wednesday- Special

    Hi guys! It’s me, Pete, the voice of Oscar the Beagle. I have some news today and there’s no easy way to say it — Oscar passed away last night. I write it that way because he truly did “pass away.” He went to sleep and just didn’t wake up. The family broke the news…

    Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. Can we please go back to the way things were? To be honest, when Grammy and Uncle Matt first started staying home a lot…. it was nice. Baxter and I were never alone. There was always someone here to take care of us. Now, I just want them…

    Woof Wednesday

    Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. I’ve been thinking about making a career change. I know, I make this look good and I’m truly accelerating at what I do but I was thinking about switching it up. I’ve been hanging out in Uncle Matt’s room (even when the are no snacks), and I’ve been…

    Woof Wednesday

    Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. I’m just trying to find a way that I can get my buddy Baxter to chill out! I told you last week how you humans have no idea what it’s like to get old. You just don’t. I turned 12 the other day. Thanks for the card. I…

    Hi. It’s me, Oscar. You would not believe what she has done to me. What am I supposed to say, “O.M.G!” No, Grammy did not shave off all my fur because it’s falling out from this stupid medicine I need to breathe. I told you how Auntie Kat bought me a nice Red Sox Hoodie.…

    Woof Wednesday

    Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. I really can’t figure out what’s going on with the humans around here. I’ve seen so many of them walking by the house with masks on. I don’t think it’s Halloween because I don’t see any candy laying around. Trust me, I would know. Plus I noticed that…
