Okay, so that title is… a lot sadder than intended, but it’s about the truth, here. Yaha has found a new home, and, as I write this, has been there for about a week. It’s a wonderful home, and, from the updates we’ve been getting, he’s very happy and more snuggly than he ever was […]
Hello all! I never wanted to write this post. And it hurts my heart that I have to. I don’t know how to soften the blow here, so I’ll just spit it out. I had to turn in the vest last night. Yaha has washed, and will no longer be training to become a Service […]
Who’s the snuggly puppy? Only sometimes, hooman! Mostly I is fur-o-shusss! He means ferocious. Aaaand… he’s not. Mostly. I also likes to training! Very true.
Hey Folks! Here’s the thing. I love my puppy–I really do. He’ll be an amazing Service Dog. Mark my words. But we are in full toddler/adolescent mode (Ms. Amanda says we’ve moved on, but it looks the same to me. Are there more fits in adolescence than as a toddler? Is that how you know?), […]
1. His sleep positions. I know I covered this last time, but may I introduce you to: The ‘I found a spot’ (Yes, I know it’s bad quality, but my phone doesn’t use the flash well, and, as previously stated, he’s generally a black void of unphotogenic-ness.) The dragon: He is genuinely laying on his […]
I know I recently wrote a bit of a real-talk post. I uploaded a few of my frustrations in order to say, we’ve all been there, friend. I have another in the works. Puppy adolescence is tough, people. HOWEVER! There is also so much good in raising Yaha–and any dog–and I know it’s sometimes hard […]
So. Yep. Puppies. Adorable little rascals aren’t they? And sometimes ‘rascal’ doesn’t cover it. Sometimes, you’re watching that clock as though you were in school or at work. Twenty minutes until naptime. That’s just four five minutes. If I can get through ten minutes I’m halfway there. If (s)he can just behave for four minutes […]
Hello all! I hope y’all had an enjoyable Independence Day weekend! I know I lucked out! Yaha did really well with the fireworks, though his tiredness and the cheese may have helped with that. 🙃 We also went to the park up at the school nearest us on the 4th. Yaha loves that too. I’m […]
Hello… I need to figure out what to call this group of people. Hm… any ideas? Big news! No, Yaha’s not finished with training. Yet. However, I am adding a new type of post to this puppy periodical. Life lessons. See, the thing is, I’m an over thinker. A chronic overthinker. To the point that, […]
Heyoooo peoples of… well, wherever it is my dear reader is from. …probably mainly Wisconsin. Anyway… let’s address the polka-dotted elephant in the computer, shall we? Good night, I am scraping the bottom of the analogy barrel today, aren’t I? However. That’s not the elephant. Yes, I am aware of how long it’s been since […]
