Terrier Teachings

Craft-sy?  Just feelin’ destructive?  Curious about how to take down a nice, juicy stick and look cool doing it? I am here to help. First look around.  Be aware of your surroundings.  Any other doggies in the area?  Unattended and annoying children?  Mailmen? Then let your mama know you’re ready to begin so she can…

Sign ‘o the Times

OK, this is too perfect for me at the moment: Because that’s exactly what mama has cooked for me this week – chicken and a pork chop.  So I have to assume that this sign was made specifically for me and for no other reason. I also saw this sign today for a lost wolverine…

A Forest

Saturday morning.  Portland.  Fall.  Yet it’s still really warm.  And sunny.  What to do? Pick up a trusty stick – not just any stick will do – it’s gotta be IMPRESSIVE And rather than let your mama decide which way to go, just start running in the direction you want to go.  If your mighty…

Reuse, Recycle, Re-Art

Time to expand my horizons a bit… on a lovely day in September.  Lots of rain and grey-ness this morning, but now it’s sunny so it’s time to WALK.  Lets hit the east side of the Willamette, shall we? Apparently there has been some public art-ification of the east side esplanade.  Perhaps it’s just happened,…

Good Sportsmanship

Heyyyy… pine cones!  And not in an area I was expecting.  Score! So mama, instead of walking right now, how about we relax here for a little while – I’ll chomp on my pine cones and you can dodge the local homeless.  No? Ok, I can see where this is going.  You’re going to try…

Saturday… In the Park…

I think it was some day in September… (not July as the song in your head may now be singing). Saturday mornings require bagels as fuel.  The Bogcedes requires gasoline, I require pumpernickel.  And since there are chores in my near future, make sure I get a whole one, ok? I stop at all of…

I Saw the Sign

Portland is just full of interesting signs these days.  They make mama laugh, sometimes at inappropriate moments, and she usually tries to pretend that she’s laughing at something hilarious that I’ve done so that people don’t think that she’s crazy.  Well, not too much. We are all familiar with the “man holding stinky poopy bag…

Rainy Days and Mondays

Monday.  Some rain, some sun.  Some time in the Bogcedes. Ah… sun. But look… clouds. Yes mama, I will help you with the errands.  I will be your co-pilot, your navigator. Keep driving… yes, just a little farther… no wait, you’re supposed to head toward the pet store!!! Damn.  Guarding the car.  AGAIN.  Not at…
