MY BIG DIG AND THE GREAT OPOSSUM SCARE Golly gee, I love digging a speciality of West Highland Terriers.

POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER AFTER GERMAN SHEPPARD ATTACK Bob and I were taking one of our many daily walks. Bob is of the view a tired dog is a happy dog. He sure has that one right.

Like the Beach BoysContinue reading ““Lost in Puppydom: Rory Dylan Stephen’s Puppydom”: POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER AFTER GERMAN SHEPPARD ATTACK”

RORY INSPIRED BY THE SOUND OF MUSIC! I had been listening to radio and television advertisements promoting a revival of the musical “The Sound of Music”. Bob groans in pain hearing the refrain, “….climb every mountain” and on occasion he howls like a wolf after he listens to it. Well I find it catchy.

“Lost in Puppydom: Rory Dylan Stephen’s Puppydom”: BRAVE NEW WORLD
BRAVE NEW WORLD As a FOB, as all puppies are, life graduates in excitement day after day assuming you have caring and attentive masters.
