Dog Stories
It doesn’t seem possible, but it’s only been 4 weeks since Shannon arrived. She is doing so well – and learning so fast. She’ll be 6 month on the 1st of September. I looked back at her pictures – the first day she was home. She was so small! I don’t think that she has [...]
It’s been 3 weeks since Shannon arrived at the house. She has been a gem every day! She continues to grow each day and learn each day. She is incredibly smart and is a sponge when it comes to learning. The past 2 days I have been able to take her to this great place [...]
Shannon had such a good time at doggie daycare yesterday I figured I would take her to the local dog park. I had heard about it from 2 of my neighbors, with mixed reviews, so I decided to find out for myself. Having only seen one other dog park in my life I have to [...]
I dropped Shannon off at doggie daycare today for the first time. I was afraid that she wouldn’t want to leave me but she followed the daycare assistant without any hesitation.

It was 2 weeks ago today that I picked Shannon up for foster care. It seems like only yesterday – but it also seems like a life ago. She has come out of her shell quite a bit since the first days….she is showing her real puppy-self all the time. At work she greet all [...]
Today Shannon did a lot of napping. I’m not sure she feel 100% yet from being sick earlier in the week. But this moring we did our usual playing before work and then she crashed – under the desk – pretty much out cold for the entire 3 hours. She did a bit of whimpering [...]
With the weather like it is – so hot and humid – it’s hard to get motived and take a long walk with the dog. But something tells me that she is not too disappointed. Earlier when we were outside, heading for a short walk, she just stoped in her tracks and sat down. Enough [...]
She met my husband – Russ – last night. This greeting went over nicely. She loved him at first sight and was extremely comfortable. As for him – how could he not think she is adorable! Shannon’s second day was good. She slept a lot. We spent 6 hours at work and she spent the [...]
