Ah, it is now lovely, warm, sunny summer weather. Oh we waited sooo long for this!!! Finally we can sit on the hillside in the nice green grass and watch the cars pass by along the road. The flowers are in bloom and in fact start to wilt if Doc does not water them each…

Snowdon and I were both born in the Netherlands, which is famous for its tulips! Ah, how happy we all are to finally see the flowers in the spring, with summer just about here! It has been a very long winter, and we have missed the grass and flowers and warm air and sun. Tulips…

Ah, snow is finally gone and spring is coming. Doc is finally walking both Snowdon and me together now that walks are no longer slippery. One of my favorite spots has always been the PACE bus stop that is a couple of blocks from home. There is a stone bench for waiting, and I love…

The winter has been brutal and we are inside sooo much! It has been just too cold for long walks, so we have six short walks a day at 6:30, 9:30, 12:00, 3:00, 6:30 and 9:30. With the cold and snow, we have had to take separate walks, so Doc and Pops take turns with…

The first week of January has been the pits!!!! Sooooo cold! Everytime we go out, Doc and Pops have to take a lot of time to get Snowdon and me to sit still while Doc stretches green rubber “bootsies” on each of our 4 paws. Doc has taught us to like the bootsies by giving…

Here we go again with super cold Chicago winter! Today was so cold that Doc had to get out my green and grey striped sweater to wear under my doggie topcoat…just to go for a short walk and pottie break! It was so cold that after a few minutes outside, Snowdon and I would be…

Snowdon’s official name on his pedigree is Polar Express of the Morning Valley. Boy, Snowdon’s name is on the T.V. all the time right now, as they keep showing the movie “Polar Express” several times a day as part of Christmas and Santa Claus. Snowdon had his second birthday today, December 23rd. He wore a…

Often when I am snoozing on the couch, Doc has the TV going and many times it is left on CNN News. I know reporters like Erin Burnett and Anderson Cooper are nice people, but they sure have a tough job of telling awful stories about what is going on every day around the world….

A friend of our family is celebrating the arrival of a new pup this past Sunday. His name is Yoakim and he came from the 4 Paws 4 U 4 Ever rescue shelter in West Chicago. They think Yoakim is 5-6 months old. He is very sweet and you can see by his picture that…

What is better than a full tummy of kibble and then a snooze on my favorite cushy bed! Ah the joys of eating and sleeping! Hope all of you get full and happy tummies on Thanksgiving, and have time to enjoy family and take a wonderful nap! THANKSGIVING TIME IS A SPECIAL DAY TO BE…
