Trying madly to get house clean before company comes. I can pretty much keep up with the kitchen but the rest of the house is doomed.
Darsha, from the hot springs is going to try to come and help me. Last time I asked her what I owed her, she said to pay her what she was worth. Well that...
He likes learning. He comes over sometimes and asks to play “click”. He’s currently working on discerning the phone from my kindle and my glasses. He’s been channeling Fen and pulling the phone or kindle right out of my hands to give it back for a reward. 😂
We will start working on my meds...
Howdy! Oregon here, living on a large cattle ranch. I also have rabbits but I’m not an expert at anything so I will learn as much from your questions as you do ☺️
He is an amazing good boy!
Today he finally figured out how to open and get out the back door, which relieves me of having to get up every time he wants to check on something. Or worse, when I’m in so much pain I sleep all day and he won’t wake me to let him out so he doesn’t pee all day which...
Once again, Boone was a very good boi in town. He stuck out aways under the table cuz he didn’t fit and got strawberry jam all over his tail where someone had mushed it i to the carpet 🫤
He met all his friends at the ranch store, flirted shamelessly and demanded bellyrubs, weighed in at vet...
I wish I knew what it means when a dog steals your place in bed. Fen has made some changes because of Boone. Sometimes he sleeps in another room part of the night because Boone pinches him or just pushes him. I put Boone out at midnight because he asked and Fen was sleeping by the backdoor. I...
Total exhaustion today. Something must have triggered it because I am a walking stupid as well.
Its so fun to watch Boone and Fen wrestling and playing together and oh my Lord! Boone got the zoomies and it was like a runaway train blasting through the raspberry patch and around the fence! Wish...
Fen got a bath last night. He was NOT a happy camped. I blew him mostly dry. He’s complaining bitterly this morning.
Got the taters planted finally, fenced chickens out, strawberries are growing, my lemon stuff came back, so did a cilantro.
I cut down all the 3 yr canes in blackberry and some in...
Boone woke me this morning by staring and breathing on me😂
He lets me hug and kiss on him and actually seems to enjoy it. Silly, I know, but it is veey therapeutic for me.
Last night Fen was all over me. I had to crate Boone for a few minutes as Fen was climbing in my lap, putting his paws on my...
I noticed! Trimming his nails is ridiculous! I have to get Randy to hold onto him and keep shoving cookies at him while I lay with my head on the floor, wedging the clippers over the tips of his toenails while he’s standing ! 😬
Boone feels the same way I do about these stupid trips to town. Now we have to go 2 hr W to Burns for meds. I swear my butt is gonna have a callous from being on the road.
Boone did some gardening today..
He got to play with some new ranch dogs..
And no matter how tired he is, or how...
Mornin all! Boone sailed over me like a gazelle this morning to wake us up. His landing however was a tad more grizzly like.
After we both stopped screaming in response to his methods, I got BIG kisses and a footie.
It’s a big deal when Boone gives a footie.
Today’s pain is pretty intense.
Not much I can do besides lay in bed, look at dog pictures, talk to Boone.
I can’t stifle the laughter as TheMan goes into the bathroom and closes the door…just moments behind him, Fen waltzes in, grabs the tug, yanks the door open and goes in without hesitation...

I think the thought definitely has some validity. The difficult part is 4 hr of driving each way, with so many experiences crammed into one day. It’s not so bad for a mature dog but for puppies it can be stressful and exhausting. Fen didn’t deal with it well at all. He sometimes even...
Had to make the 4 hr drive into town again this morning.
So much training to do, so little opportunity.
Teaching a giant breed puppy to squeeze under tables is a little more of a challenge than I thought it would be but it’s going fairly well. Training a Service Dog is a lot of work in the...
