Straight from the dogs’ mouth?

Posted on November 30, 2015 by talktothepawz

Recently I had a post come across my Facebook feed about things humans do that dogs hate. My first thought was, who did this interview? And more importantly, how? I’ve talked to every dog I’ve ever had and none have said, “Hey. You know that head pat thing you do? Yea, I don’t like that.”…

Sounds

Posted on November 20, 2015 by talktothepawz

Sounds. I think in every stage of life there are sounds that we associate with certain things and we just know what they are. This might be determined by who is speaking and or making the sound, the age of the person, or maybe the type of relationship you have with that person. When you’re…

Our dogs as movie characters

Posted on November 16, 2015 by talktothepawz

Marc and I are movie junkies. To say we have no life is an understatement, just ask our kids. We watch all kinds of movies. Everything from sappy romances to Sci-Fi but no horror. Marc loves that scary stuff but not me, I can’t even be in the same room while a horror movie is…

Meeting of the K-9s?

Posted on November 8, 2015 by talktothepawz

Our dogs (including grand-dogs) range in age from 11 months to 9 years. After all this time, I’ve finally come to realize something: They like making me crazier than I was the day before. How do they do this? They have a meeting; I know it. I think it must be similar to some businesses…

If they were human they’d get arrested

Posted on November 4, 2015 by talktothepawz

I’m with our dogs every day. I’m at home pretty much all the time. Ok, ok, I get it, I don’t have a life. Moving on, being with them so much gives me a whole lot of time to observe them and their behaviors. I get to see how they play together, alone, and interact…

I’m an expert?

Posted on November 2, 2015November 2, 2015 by talktothepawz

I read an article that said if you’re writing a blog you should be able to identify yourself as an expert in some area. So I decided to write about the process of getting your dog into movies, the training they need, and how easy it is to do it. I’m totally kidding. I don’t…

Farts; not so plain and simple

Posted on October 18, 2015October 18, 2015 by talktothepawz

Farts. A word that often causes laughter for no apparent reason. The idea of air coming out of a person’s rear is mostly laughable because we’ve all been in the position to have a fart make some pretty crazy noises upon exit. Sometimes you can do things just right, so they’re stealth and quietly slide…

Some “benefits” of owning our dogs

Posted on October 17, 2015 by talktothepawz

I can’t count how many times I’ve heard that owning a dog is good for your health. I’ve always assumed that was because of the unconditional love they give. They’re always there for you. They’re loyal and loving beyond words. They make you laugh. They’re part of the family, and all that other unicorns and…

No dogs on the furniture?

Posted on October 14, 2015 by talktothepawz

Someone recently told me they don’t let their dogs on the furniture! I know! Our dogs not only get on the furniture, they pretty much make the rules of the house! Marc and I each had a dog from the start and we shared the belief that dogs are family. I’m so thankful we agreed…

Posted on October 4, 2015 by talktothepawz

There are some things that our dogs do that make me laugh. Other things that drive me crazy. No matter what though, I love them with all my heart. With that said, I was trying to decide what to write about and thought that I would just keep it simple. So I decided to do…

Workin’ hard for the dogs

Medical Animals In Need (M.A.I.N)

About

I explain who I am in the “Who’s Behind the Pawz” section and I don’t want to bore you again. What I would like to tell you about is our entire gang. We have one granddaughter who lives with us. Her name is Crispie, she’s a 10-year-old Chocolate Lab. Marc and I have Shelby a 3-year-old Chihuahua with a bad attitude who was a foster with us until 12-25-2015, and Carson a 1-year-old mix of sorts! We recently added our last Medical Animals In Need (M.A.I.N.) foster, Hudson, to the “never leaving” list. We also have one more granddaughter, Charlee a 10-year-old Chocolate Lab that lives with our daughter. We continuously foster dogs for M.A.I.N. and we’re always waiting on our next one to arrive. Right now we have Clarence (aka Old Dude or Little Dude). He’s 13 years old and 6.5 pounds. He’s in the category of forever foster which means he’s living out his life with us. Each of our kids and grandkids has a unique personality that provide me with laughs, gray hair, fun, some stress, and so much love. Oh, they also give me things to write about.
