Boys v Girls.

Some of you know that I may (100%) prefer boy dogs. You all likely know that there are a LOT of girl dogs at Wildling Corner. A LOT.

Even though he’s going to live forever, I did mildly chastise Dougal for (maybe) someday leaving me with SO MUCH ESTROGEN to manage. The intensity, dramatics, and demanding natures of girls dogs…it’s…a lot. (Or is it just MY girl dogs?! 🤣🤣🤣)

Over a full moon bonfire last night, Janet and I created a band for them: Dougal and the Estrogens. Can *only* be played at full volume!!!

Happy Monday, y’all!

Mollee *loves* to steal things.

Often it’s items she perceives as ‘naughty’ so she guarantees some sort of attention. Things like a loaded pincushion, 100s of socks, a skein (or 3) of yarn, a package of sewing needles, my fave chapsticks, a package of earplugs…you get the idea.

We work HARD at bringing the things to me for a look-see and a snack trade! Sometimes I’ll surprise her by giving the item right back to her.

Like this Apple. 💯 snatched from the very back of the counter. She also brought to me for a check (with side eye), so I gave it back to her.

How’s your Sunday?

Two of today’s shelter friends.

Mrs. Fletcher is a gentle, grey-faced lady with some pep in her step.

Vanellope is the *cutest* trip hazard, bean-sized beebs. NOTHING fazed her.

Both ladies were social, food motivated, and loved the sunshine.

Go git you one!

“Play wiv me!” - Mollee

As we’re learning to live with each other, I’m starting to understand her conversations. In general, she’s doing a *marvelous* job learning to live in a structured, yet varied household. She’s getting much better at ‘hanging out’!

Sometimes, though, a girlie wants to play (or be the focus). Out of the corner of my eye this morning, I saw her pick something up, pause, and run away. (Tell Number 1) I was eating breakfast, so didn’t follow.

She came back, paused in the hallway to stare at me (still eating), and went into the bathroom. She’s been rummaging around in there a bit lately, so I called her name, and she ran out of the bathroom, towards the living room. (Tell Number 2).

I put down my egg sammy to investigate. And, yes, I found the Polka Dot Pony on the couch with the (CLEAN) backup toilet brush. VERRRRRRY proud of herself for getting my attention!

I reclaimed the brush and we played….with another toy.

How do your dogs engage you in play?

'Tis almost the season of major travel!

As a local dog mom and trainer, I'm frequently asked for pet care referrals. Finding excellent pet care is always a top priority, so I'm building a database of trusted pet care providers beyond basic contact info to hopefully best match local needs. The goal is simple: help other local pet owners find the right match for their furry family members.

Want to be included? Fill out the form below and let's get you connected with the pets who need you most!
