Woof Wednesday: Where’s spring gone?

Hello world! Since I didn’t really know what to write about today (it’s been a quiet week), mom said maybe I could just share some photos of spring. I think she hopes it will serve as a reminder to the current weather that it is actually almost June and temps above 60°F really would be appreciated. I canine-ally find the weather pretty darn nice. Lots of drizzle to wet down my fur, an... read more

Woof Wednesday: Goodbye dear Maya

Hi everyone, I come to you with a heavy heart today. My bestest friend in the world, Maya, passed away last week. She was only 4 years old like me and taken long before her time by cancer. Maya was a Bernese Mountain Dog and we were best buds from the first moment we met. We were the only two young big dogs on the block so we could rough house with each other and stir up all kinds of trouble. Maya was... read more

Woof Wednesday: Cardboard Box Domination

Hello world! If you’ve been reading me for a while, it will come as no surprise to you that I am a highly trained cardboard box killing machine. I’ve made no secret of the fact that I will take out any box that crosses my path for no apparent reason, other than the sheer joy of destroying the box. Oh, and it helps mom fit them into the recycle bin and you’d know I’m all about... read more

Woof Wednesday: Ducks and scary algae!

Good morning puppy pals! You might be starting to wonder just how large the farm is that we live on…with all these animals I keep talking about on here…but actually the sheep belong to someone else, these ducks I’m about to mention are wild, and basically we just have a big of a wildlife refuge behind us where we go for walks. It sure does make the walks more interesting than just the... read more

Woof Wednesday: Baaaah right back at ya!

Hi! What a day I’ve had so far. This morning I ran into my friend, Dexter, and we got to go on a nice long walk together. He’s getting better about not chewing on my ears and I only had to tell him to back off once. In fact, we actually had a really good time playing today. Afterward, mom left me at home alone, which was ok since I was pretty tired…but I sure was glad to see her when she... read more

Woof Wednesday: How to Kiss a Toddler

Hey world! Last week I told you how cool our vacation was…you probably remember all those photos of me jumping around like a crazy puppy, right? Well in addition to the vacation being totally fun, I also noticed that it’s not always so easy to settle down when you’re in a foreign place. You have to try out all the various types of floors, and lay in every room. Some are darker rooms,... read more

Woof Wednesday: We done found us some snow!

Hello friends!! Wow, have I got some exciting stuff to share with you today! Last week, we took a little vacation and even though it’s pretty warm at home…where we went there was SNOW! And lots of it. I could hardly even believe my eyes. And we didn’t even have to drive that far. Mom says about 3 hours which in dog time means you’re going to be in the back of the truck for a... read more

Woof Wednesday: A Danger of Walking Big Dogs

Hello all my woof-tastic friends and hoomans! In case you don’t follow me on Twitter, I get myself into quite a bit of trouble yesterday. Mom, Mackenzie and I had been out for our late afternoon walk and we hadn’t run into any other dogs. Mom threw a ball for me several times, and even let me chase it into and over the stream…but I was itching for more action. As we neared the end of the... read more

Woof Wednesday: A Valentine’s Day romp in the snow

Hi anipals! I don’t know what the weather has been like near you, but I hope it’s as nice as it has been here! The last few days it’s been getting colder but still really nice and sunny. It’s quite heavenly although running through the fields is a bit difficult since it’s rained off and on at night. I come home with my paws caked in mud. Mom’s not too thrilled and... read more

Woof Wednesday: Today is my birthday! Uh, I mean yesterday?

Welcome to the wide world of Newfie! You read it right…I celebrated a burpday yesterday! Yes, this time it was really my burpday and not Mackenzie’s. I turned 4 years old. Can you believe it? Mom and dad said it’s almost a miracle I survived this long. The first year I was especially crazy…but apparently I have calmed way down so I’m not going to get shipped off to Abu Dhabi... read more
