Don't Let the Heat Beat you!

Beat the Heat with Ice Cream!

On hot day such as these , us dogs use our common sense.

Beat the Heat at the beach, but be sure to take plenty of fresh water and go before the heat of the day.

Play inside, where it is cool.

ABC Wednesday! O is for ?

Tia is my oldest friend. When she comes to visit , I am happy to share with her. I was especially happy to share the hat since I dislike wearing it!

Even Tia was a bit ashamed by having to weat the hat.

After the shoot, the lady let me go out.

Ever observant, I quickly spied the squirrel!

Many say I am obsessed with them, but all that activity keeps me spry for an old girl!

Get Ready! Howloween is coming!

Each year it is the same. Regardless of our feeling on the matter, the humans feel compelled to dress us up. Since an early age, I have refused to go along with this game. I might wear a hat, but come on, clothes! I really didnt like having to be Toto, for this event. Hey he was a Cairn terrier lady, not a JRT! If you look close , check out my ears, back like that means I am only doing this for the treat!! Dorthy just got to sit there like the scarecrow she was, but I had to look interesting!

Get ready, and do you really like dressing up??

Accept what you can't change!

As much as I love to run, hunt and chase the squirrels , some days it just isnt going to happen. Instead of whining at the door, I find it best just to accept what you can't change. While it isn't as entertaining as hunting, the fire does feel mighty fine on a chilly rainy day!

Culitivate Toddlers!

Over the years I have found that toddlers make great friends! Sure you might have to tolerate a little rough handling, but they are sure to be sloppy eaters. I help clean up and often when the adults aren't paying attention , my toddler friends give me whole pieces of sandwiches, cookies, ect! Find yourself a personal toddler and you are set for life!

Ears to you !!

Humans judge so much by the way things look. Here is my new friend, Minnie, while her ears are not correct for a Jack Russell, I say who the heck cares! Us dogs don't care, the only thing I care about is that she decided I was quite the plaything and was willing to chase and be chased!



Besides how cute can one little dog be! Erect ears and all, she is the cutest JRT puppy I have played with for quite a while. Ears to you Minnie!!

Read the News!

At our book signing last weekend in Rehoboth Beach DE, the lady noticed that the people who came in to the bookstore early were obsessed about reading the news. One paper was late and it was as if the world was coming to an end! She finally had to ask to find out what important paper they were missing, it was the sunday edition of the local news.

Luckily us dogs use our noses to read the news!

While not all dogs let me read the news most do and that makes my day!

Be willing to explore!

Always be willing to explore new things. Who would have thunk that I would find the stuff in the bottom of this pumpkin to be very tasty eating! Push your limits and you might very well be rewarded!
