Charlie’s First Christmas
Yes it’s Charlie’s first Christmas and so far so good. In case you don’t know, Charlie is our puppy that we got in May. He is a Schnoodle, which is a mix between a Schnauzer and a poodle. (I still love saying Schnoodle. It’s such a fun word.) Charlie is now 9-months old. I had…

I Still Miss Them
It just hit me out of the blue this week: I miss my boys. I still miss them. As some of you may know, we lost our Beagle and Golden Retriever not too long ago. The whole family went through the grieving process in our own way but I’ve since found out, we’re pretty much…

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.

Thoughts On End Of Life
If you saw my post earlier this week, you know I wrote about how we had to put down our beloved golden retriever, Baxter. Baxter was 12, old for a Golden, when we had to say goodbye this week. The staff at Capeway Veterinary Hospital was fantastic as they gave my family the time to…

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
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’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…

Woof Wednesday
Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. I had to go to the stupid Vet again! I know, I should be nice and Grammy says he’s a nice man but I just don’t like the poking and the SHOTS! I guess it was time for my annual checkup. I would have been fine if we…

Woof Wednesday
Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. So….guess what happened the other night? No, I did not win the Publisher’s Clearinghouse and get a year of free Milk Bones. No, Uncle Matt did not leave a full box of Cheez Its on the night stand with the lid open. No, it was not another life…
