Henry Rings in the New Year

Henry is female, by the way.  A SUPER cute, wrinkly, loving English Bulldog.

Toothpaste and cookies… really cookies?

I got this toothpaste today to clean my dog’s teeth and on the way out I grabbed a treat from the bucket. It smells just like cookie, it looks  just like cookie and now I know why they are marketing proper dental canine hygiene to me – because it was too much to feed them human s-crap-s, now people are buying cookies and candy specifically for their dogs!?

Christmas With Extended Family

Super cute kids!  The one on the right is Rose (Hans’ middle kid) and Zoe (Evan’s first cousin once removed) is on the left.  They are getting so big!

Can I buy you a drink

When the bartender showed up with refills that my lady friend and I didn’t order, my gut sank a little. I started mapping out the words I would use to reply to the always awkward gesture… thanks, but really, we’re both in relationships & have been for years, so really…. Until she gestures to your very sweet and ever generous friend across the bar that sent them over. Phew! Happy surprise. I love Juneau!

Ellie, meet Tiga. Tiga, meet Ellie.

Ellie licking her chops out of nervousness.  Or hunger, who knows.

The good and the bad

I scolded her for getting in the “pantry” stuff under the sink, then promptly realized she was still looking in there. Innocent explanation, her ball bounced in. I started glancing around – open closet full of stinky shoes, open bag of food, leashes, cleaning supplies, trash can, plants – So many temptations that I never think twice about. Feeling very appreciative of my fabulous pup realizing what great boundaries she has with human stuff.
