  • The Long and Winded Road

    Oy! We're exhausted! Are we there yet? Do you see how long we've been walking? And maybe it was 8 miles for you, but I was running rings around you! Look how far we've traveled. I forged the way, I leaped about, I frolicked over hill and over...

  • The Hide and Seek

    This is a good exercise to hone the checking in. What you do is, when your dog gets way ahead of you and isn't "checking in" you hide behind something. Sometimes it goes really well and the dog comes looking for you, and sometimes if your...

  • Taking Time to Smell the...

    Why this tree is delightful! The dogs take a well earned break under some bushy shrub tree. Parker is yet again amazed at the freshness and Zephy just hopes there will be a little something something of the picnic variety soon.

  • Near...Far...

  • A Tail of Two Tushies

    Parker and Zephy on the road again. Nothing says freedom like the open road when you're sharing it with a friend. There they go off to get a pricker, eat some grass & harass some lizards. You never know what you're going to find out there...

  • Parker Meets Zephyrella

    Our next hike introduced Parker to Zephy and it was like pie meeting Cool Whip for the first time! The first time Zephy saw Parker, she didn't meet him. She hit the glass of my door the minute he came into the building. I had never seen her act that...

  • Parker, Where Are You Going?

    Parker took to being off lead like a duck to water! The official version is that we left the drag line on for 15 minutes. We made sure no rabbits would entice him to bound off to the netherlands, and watched him closely. I also had a pocket of high octane...

  • Parker likes Cheese & Me

    It always starts the same way: minding your own business at the buffet when you hear about a dog that needs some fixin' (and not of the neutering sort). I had been invited to the Battista's for a lovely Christmas Eve party where I was shoving...
