I know I haven't posted in forever, but to make it up to you, here's a beautiful doggy.

Dog days

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

Today was just not a good dog day. First, Rusty has serious stranger aggression issues. He obviously wasn't well socialized as a puppy (he was a stray after all). He barks, growls, shakes and bites when strangers come over. I contacted a great dog behavorist/trainer today to see about a ...

Or is it "doginality"?

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

As much as I hate the fact that my sweet little Rusty-bear has a perfect internal alarm clock and wakes up every morning at 6:00, it has been good for my morning productivity. I actually have time to feed and walk both dogs, put away clean dishes, eat some breakfast ...

Brothers

Took Rusty to the vet yesterday to get his shots completed. The vet thought his incision looked a little red, so he gave us some antibiotics and had us buy an e-collar to keep Rusty from licking himself. He thinks he's quite handsome. The boys get along just ...

Here are some more pics of our newest prettyboy: He's quite the little bully. He pesters Apollo, takes his toys, etc. and Apollo just waits patiently (and then gets his toy back when Rusty's not looking LOL). It will be interesting to see how Rusty's behavior changes ...

Our new addition

Saturday, May 26th, 2007

We've adopted a new son. He's (of course) a miniature pinscher, and we got him from the Internet Miniature Pinscher Service (breed rescue group). A couple of months ago, he was found as a stray in Ft. Walton Beach. He's such a sweet boy. We've decided to keep his name, ...
