Our Name Origins
Last week we celebrated mine and Lemmy’s Gotcha Day anniversaries. This week we are counting down to what would have been Angel Chuck Billy’s 13th birthday! What better way to begin than by answering a question I heard a lot in recent weeks, “What is the story behind Chuck Billy’s name?” Chuck Billy, Lemmy and […]

Ten Years Ago Today Our Adventure Began
Ten years ago on this date, I joined my family and met my brother, Chuck Billy. I remember waking up that morning in the whelping box, with the feeling of excitement in the air. One by one I watched as my 8 siblings headed off on their grand adventures, while I filled with anticipation. And […]

Indoor Dog Games for Cabin Fever
I don’t know about you, but after days of arctic temperatures, cabin fever is really setting in around here! To keep the humans entertained, I’ve turned to Angel Chuck Billy’s old playbook of indoor games – nose work and art projects! Just between you and me, Chuck Billy could be rather wordy in his descriptions. […]

Gotta Get Outside Again: A Winter Dog Song
Dogs, ever have one of those days where you find yourself on the wrong side of the door…repeatedly?

It’s […]

Which in my opinion was actually just dried grass from when Mom left our kiddie pool in the yard too long. Oh wait. Stop. Breathe. Let […]

Chuck Billy’s Most Memorable Puppy Meltdown
Lately I’ve written a lot about Chuck Billy’s insistence on keeping us on schedule and the importance of his 5:00 PM dinnertime. Now that he’s no longer with us, I’m also realizing how much responsibility Chuck Billy shouldered in keeping our family on track. Most of the time our fearless leader had it all under […]

A Stroll Down Hat Memory Lane
Today, January 15th, is National Hat Day! Whether it is for a festive occasion, a formal event, or just a practical chapeau for the weather, I love hats! Little Orphan Annie’s friends may have sang, “You’re Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile,” but I feel a hat is almost as important, even if Chuck Billy […]

I Surprised Everyone, Even Myself
Who’s a good boy? Apparently I am! Lately I’ve been surprising even myself with how well I remember my commands without cues from Chuck Billy. You may recall a few years ago Chuck Billy signed up Mom and Dad for a refresher training class. Well to be honest, I think that refresher was for me, […]
