Now that I have your attention
This is how you Escape Your Leashed Life Stupid Leash! Step 1: Lay around looking sad. Step 2: Cry/howl if you have to (Thanks Dex, but we already have that visual covered) Step 3: Convince the Food Lady that you should go swimming Agh! Mooooom! She’s shaking on me again! Step 4: Roll around in [...]
All Life Has Value
Recently the Vancouver Foundation produced a multi-media presentation to generate donations for their many philanthropic endeavors; the presentation focused on the senior animal sanctuary you all have heard me talk about so much – SAINTS. The Vancouver Foundation gives grants to SAINTS to help with the immense task of keeping their sanctuary afloat. I was [...]
Wherefor art thou TWoo?
I *may* have mentioned this before, but Wootie and TWooie are like one dog, same dog. If ever anyone has doubted their relativity, all they’d need to do is watch them WooTWoo in action and their doubts will be erased. They have the same feet, the same tail and pants, the same mannerisms and carriage, [...]
Happy Earth Day!
In celebration of Earth Day, I decided to build raised beds for my intended vegetable gardens. The raised beds should deter the bunnies who are slowly taking over my entire property, and also are a very pleasant alternative to digging up and tilling a section of my lawn o’ weeds. Me and shovels are not [...]
If you missed the Woo-Off

Nothing to see here folks
This is not a very exciting post. With a couple brief exceptions, I’ve lived almost exclusively in condos and apartments since I moved out of my mother’s house 20 years ago, and some of my dogs have never in their lives had a yard. So it’s still a novelty for me to step outside my [...]
Rent this space!
There’s supposed to be a video in here of Dexter having his first go at working the woolies this afternoon at the Llama Farmer’s. Alas, the video is too embarrassing to show anyone so I refuse to upload it. In fact, the evidence was so shameful it broke my Outlook mail (incidentally, if you can [...]
Let’s talk FAIL
I. Suck. (so does Cassie) I FAIL in many ways when it comes to my dogs. The worst FAIL is probably how impatient I am with them when we’re training something. I just want them to *get it*. I blame them for not understanding complicated concepts right off the bat – now, keep in mind, [...]
Whut whut?
TWooie Butt! We love us some TWooie butt! Because when we see it, it means the TWoo is having a Superfantastichappyday time! In a cavalier disregard for desensitization protocols that would make Nickelsmum blow her stack, I decided it was too nice a day to stay home, so we all went to the doggie beach. [...]
Woo Off #1!
You know her as the creator of magical, whimsical, custom dog portraits of your favourite four-legged friend. Now Laughing Dingo Studios has teamed up with 3WAAW to bring you an original portrait of the world’s most flamboyant mystery dog, the Fabulous Mr. Woo!! “Woo are NOT the boss of me” embodies the very essence of [...]
Let my people go!
Tweed would like to demonstrate to you all how unimpressed he is with crate rest/on leash walkies during his recovery period. Screeeeeeewwwwwww yooooouuuuuuuu beeeyoooootch! We gave up on the Traumeel … I feel like I was giving him fairy water from a tiny little jar. I started him on Deramaxx again and already he’s way [...]
A Message to all Dumpster Divers
You may as well stop looking, because you won’t find Piper in one tonight! ZOMG – someone swapped my crappy, saucers-for-eyeballs faux agility dog for a seasoned, level-headed, FAST and accurate supah-stah! I had to pull Limpy Tweed from the trial because he’s just in no shape to run, and we’re trying to keep him [...]
House of Pain
I live in it! This week Tweed got all excited when we met up with a friend for walkies, raced over to see him and started yelping, and has been limping ever since. I’ve never had a dog so prone to injuring himself in mystery ways that don’t show up on x-rays. It’s a very [...]
Sheer Heart Attack
Why? WHY does Wootie hate me so? Why is he trying to make me drop dead in terror? This, my friends, is Wootie chasing a coyote this afternoon at the dykes in Maple Ridge. You will all please keep in mind that this was shot with a telephoto lens and is heavily cropped. What I [...]
Ummm … can I help you with something?
Why’d you bring me home all these pesty little brothers? Sorry Piper, it can’t be helped. But maybe our readers can help us with the pestiest of pesty little brothers. (insert JAWS theme). The TWoo. Yes yes, he looks sweet, but TWooie is now settling in at Casa de Food Lady and, as with so [...]
