About Me

I would be pulling a sled in another life, but I manage to get by anyway.....

My Interests

Eating, ice water, sleeping, going for walks and rides, chasing critters, playing tug, sparring with Grandma's two golden retrievers, being nosy and generally getting my way. I'm always good for a romp at Grandma's with my step-siblings Hunter and Jasmine. My big annoyances are those two cats that live in my house and always rub on me. I was scared of them when I was little.

I'd like to meet:

Most other medium to large dogs, although small dogs interest me. Any rodent that does not belong in my yard.

Movies:

Eight Below, White Fang, Call of the Wild, Serengeti Symphony

Television:

The TV normally bores me, and my parents have it turned up too loud.

Books:

I used to eat them as a puppy, especially ones my parents were particularly fond of (High School yearbooks, author-signed copies, etc.).

Heroes:

Whoever invented dog treats, rawhide and fleece fuzzy toys

The Bread Machine

One of the things I miss most is Mom's bread machine. We didn't use it often (certainly not often enough), but it was one of my absolute favorite things in life. Mom used to mix up a batch of bre...

A Presence Missed

A Presence Missed&&.. By Shaun Chittick I get up in the morning for work, carefully feeling my way along the floor in the dark so I don't step on or kick you. I step on the warm spot where you ...

A Card from Nikki's Vet

We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other ...

Goodbye and best wishes to all

Well.....I finally lost what turned out to be a long battle with cancer. Mom and Dad are devasted to say the least, and Dad is writing this on my behalf but is having trouble with the words and feelin...

Update

  ..>   It doesn't look like I'm going to check out of this plane of existence anytime soon as I previously believed. Mom and Dad took me to a different vet for a second opinion, and I ...

Uh, oh......

I've gotten into some cat toys and other stuff in order to send a direct message to my parents in response to them leaving me during the work week. Dad thought I got everything back up, but apparently...

Unacceptable!

Well, Mom is almost through with her second week back at work, after a six or so year break. Needless to say, I'm not at all pleased with the situation, but I don't know how to express my feelings wit...

Delegation is a Great Tactic!

My Dad went to Northwest River Park without me today, to do some geocaching with a friend. I wasn't sure where they went until they returned all muddy and smelling like a swamp. I was more than a litt...

The Tree Rats

Apparently things have gotten out of hand in my back yard in the last few weeks. I trotted outside today and spotted a Tree Rat (Mom and Dad call them "squirrels", but what do they know?) running alon...
