Get Your Head in the Game, Dog!!!

Wacko (our dog Bella) is actually good at something (besides eating Blackberries and Kleenex). She is a star basketball play. Number one defensive player in her league… for reals! Check her out: Told ya! Oh and nice Marge Simpson laugh in the background. That is definitely not me!

Pass the Tissue!

Pass the Tissue!

No, this is not a sappy story about how my dog makes me a better person or how she is my best friend. My dog is WACKO! My dog is obsessed with tissue… used ones, new ones, boxes of tissues, you name it… whatever she can get her mouth on. What the hell? Are the [...]

Spring Sucks

Spring Sucks

My dog stinks (Warning: not for the faint of heart or nose)

My dog stinks (Warning: not for the faint of heart or nose)

No, actually, mine does. It’s true… She farts. A lot. Did you ever hear a dog fart? Not smell, HEAR… I didn’t either until Wacko/Bella came along. I know this isn’t the most polite topic to blog about but it’s been on my mind (and my nose) lately. So I had to Google it of [...]

Meet Wacko

Meet Wacko

A little over a year ago, I had the bright idea that we NEEDED a dog to complete our family. I must have been drinking too much Mommy Juice at the time. Seriously. What was I thinking? It was like instantly adding a toddler – a very active – toddler into our lives. We chose [...]
