I told her I love her today  — 2 years ago

Making my dog smile everyday seems like a simple, but very important goal. I did tell Holly that I love her today and gave her a hug. I make a point of doing so every day and I am certain that we both benefit.

Vizslas pout a lot  — 2 years ago

But my girl Ella always smiles when she gets to go for a run, so if I make my goal to get her out for a run every day, I’ll get exercise, and she’ll be sure to smile at least once!

Well, this may have been the easiest goal I’ve ever done. Bing seems to always be smiling and making him smile is so cool anyways.

Tub Time!  — 2 years ago

I gave my dog a bath for the first time this weekend! We can’t really afford to groom him right now, so I figured this would be a nice way to spend some quality time.

Let me tell you, this dog loves the tub… even more than I do. He was so good and he looks wonderful! We both enjoyed the experience so much, that I’m going to look into how professional groomers do their thang and see if I can’t just groom him at home instead.

I get such a tickle  — 2 years ago

I get tickled pink out of giving my dog warm fuzzies, and I get them back tenfold. He’s even sitting here right next to me as I’m typing, leaning against my leg. The good feelings go both ways.

I think I’ve become psychically linked to my dog. Can this be healthy?

Doggy Massage  — 2 years ago

I bought a book for my birthday about giving dogs massages, called the Healing Touch for Dogs. I’d been thinking for a while about learning more about giving massages to pets, after hearing a lot about how it benefits the animals.

So, yesterday, I tried out some of the massage routine and Django really loved it! He got this real serious look on his face and he leaned into it and just sat there the whole time. It was really nice… he seemed to be energized at the end and he was in such a good mood. I’m going to try and memorize the whole routine and we’ll see how it works out.

You know, it’s funny, I never would have thought about massaging pets… it seems kind of cheesy… but after reading this book and hearing about it, it just makes perfect sense. What a nice treat for me and my Django!

I think this would be an easy goal if I were not on 24 hour shifts twice a week. Now I’m going to need to be creative to accomplish this, but I see it as worth it.

Meet Banjo  — 2 years ago

The love of my life. He has prevented me from being lonely during my time at home alone. He entertains me, I entertain him. Who needs men? Screw relationships! Banjo is all I need.

Bow wow wow yipee yo yipee yay  — 2 years ago

We’ve been taking Django (that’s my dog) to his Grandma’s everyday before work so that he has company during the day. His spirits have really brightened as a result.

There’s something that you must know about Django… he goes through a massive depression every fall. We aren’t sure why, since we found him only two years ago… but it’s very sad to see. He just lays there and refuses to move. :(
