Yesterday morning, Felix and I went to the food bank. It opens at 8:30 AM, so we showed up at 7:30 figuring we’d be among the first in line. But since it was nice weather out, apparently everyone else thought so, too! So we were actually the 26th family in […]
About two weeks ago, I took Felix to Target to practice his auto-leave-it. This is where he looks at an item he wants to sniff, and then looks at me instead of sniffing the item. I do it by using leash tension to stop him from sniffing the item (without […]
When we were in Ohio recently, Felix was a bit scared when my nieces were rambunctious. So we’re going to be doing some training to get him more used to kids that are screaming and running. He’s totally fine with calm kids, and we usually aren’t around rambunctious kids, so […]
Today was our first agility class with our trainer Susan. Before I went to Ohio, we had a private lesson to assess whether he”d be able to join the class. Today was our first time in the regular class. The drive there was stressful, as there was a big accident […]

This afternoon I was supposed to fly to Ohio to see my parents and some other family members. My flight was scheduled to leave at 3:30PM. I left the house at 1, and got to the airport 2 hours early like expected. I had checked in online, but I still […]
Last week when we met up with Sabrina, one of the things we did is have a private lesson with Susan to see if the pups were ready for her agility classes. The first thing we did was talk a little bit about agility, which Sabrina and Indy have never […]
Yesterday Brad and I got to hang out with our friend Sabrina! We first met her for lunch at Chicken Salad Chick (which is her favorite restaurant!). Even though the clouds were threatening, we ate outside. We did get a little drizzle here and there, but nothing that made us […]
Well the day finally came that Hestia got allergy testing. We’ve been fighting staph infections for the past two years. She gets them about once every two months. We’ve tried everything the vet can think of to stop them coming back. But the vet thinks Hestia has allergies that cause […]
Last Friday, Brad and I went to the Japanese Chin Club of the Carolinas specialty show! It was only an hour away from us. They have one every year, and every year we say we’re going to go, but never get there. This year we decided to meet our internet […]
