    Thoughts?

    I was hoping you'd chime in :) How are all your babies?!? They are supposedly litter mates, but really who knows with a turn in like that. If we pass muster and get to meet them I'll report back what I see in person.

    Thoughts?

    The more I look at them, the more I see some corgi influence, possibly? We will be going to meet them before committing for sure. I just know my husband's heart is softer than butter! I know the papillon personality fits with our lifestyle...mixing that up could be good or could be bad, very...

    Thoughts?

    I'm sure no one remembers me, I used to be a semi-regular post a while back. But I'm possibly adopting a new rescue pup...pending a bit of research on the rescue and such. But, my question is, just based on pictures of these two brothers, does there seem to be some issue because of how they...

    Playing with the new lens

    It is an f 2.8 35mm 1:1 macro lens. I've been using it for just about everything to learn it. I'm hoping to use it as a portrait lens. It is slower to focus than some of my others, but as a portrait lens that shouldn't be an issue.

    Just a bit of a vent

    I feel your pain! My cousin was over last night and he's not been here before. He's a VERY large man...tall and muscle-y. He's also a bit of an idiot sometimes LOL! He had a puffy parka type coat, a beanie cap with a bill and he has a beard plus he's rather loud. The boys were NOT amused...

    What are your dogs eating for Christmas dinner?

    The boys got to split half a tub of Caesar's bacon and egg souffle. I figure most every kid in the country is hyped up on candy canes and cookies this morning, my boys can have junk food for breakfast too ;) They think Santa is pretty cool LOL!

    Gift ideas for new house...

    My sis gave me a butter dish full of random screws, nails, bolts and such. That was HEAVEN as a new home owner. What about picture hanging stuff or a few "don't think about it til you need it stuff" like duct tape, one of those hair clog remover zipper things, lock graphite and such?

    Morgan could use some vibes, please

    Tummy upsets used to be super common in my house. The old gal was awful for eating something dumb and then feeling like crap for it. If he's off this evening, don't even offer food. I fast for at least 12 hours when there is puking going on. Hopefully something just didn't sit right in his...

    Does your dog give Christmas presents to relatives?

    My dogs always give gifts to people and pets alike. Mostly, I'm a giant dork and think it is funny LOL. They got their "aunts and uncles" treats, their "cousin" got a toy (which they've already killed :D ) and they get each other stuff too. I'll also put their names on some of the gift tags...

    Santa Paws came early!

    The boys really did score...tennis balls, mini-chuckit balls, a rope bone, a dogzilla stuffable toy, a squeaky fire hydrant, a flat stuffy ball AND two treat bones PLUS a big bag of peanut cookies!! They are in heaven! My attempts at all the loot failed miserably. The boys kept stealing...

    Santa Paws came early!

    Thank you Ozzy and Enzo! There are two very content puppers in this house tonight...and a thrilled kitty even (she got the box :rofl1: ) Package opening was hard work because they are both sacked out on Bill's lap listening to Air Supply with him now. On to the pictures! What is this...

    Wii help please!!

    I sell these at work. You can play it straight out of the box. It comes with one remote, one nunchuck and the wii sports game. Almost everyone that buys it without accessories is back within a week to buy at least another remote and nunchuck LOL! Most of the wii sports games are just more...

    How much exercise?

    We get a 20-30 minute walk in most nights. The boys also go out to the yard several times a day and chase birds or squirrels. We also train for a few minutes 3 or 4 times a day and they wrestle a ton. They aren't overly high energy though (wth? I just said that about Pedro? Never thought...

    Socialization Help

    There is a game that we've played with our dogs to help/prevent this issue. This site has it almost at the bottom of the page LevelBook It is called Monkey in the Middle. We've played it with as few as 2 people and me. The basic idea, though, is strangers have yummy food LOL! Also, make...
