Loving a Sheltie, it truly is an experience!  My spouse only had one dog in his formative years, a Dachshund named Red.  When he met me it had been almost a decade since he had lived with a canine, I had just gotten my very first Shetland Sheepdog named Amber who was navigating the puppyContinue reading “Thoughts to Paws over…”

“Good hygiene, enhanced sound well-being.” Lailah Gifty Akita, ‘Think Great:  Be Great!’ This may sound a little crazy, but when was the last time you washed your pets water bowl or food dish?   I have made it a habit to wash the boys water bowl  with hot soapy water two or three times aContinue reading “Thoughts to Paws over…”

“It’s all coming back to me now…”  I have had six dogs in my life since growing up, two of them were Sheltie’s.   My daughter basically grew up with Shelties, it wasn’t until our rescue Nishka that she experienced life with a different breed.  When she decided to actively pursue getting a dog sheContinue reading “Thoughts to Paws over…”

“Say Hello to my little Friend…”   I think a lot of people when they look at this little guy’s face, make a lot of wrong assumptions.  My buddy Diesel and I get out for some exercise twice a day, sometimes in a group with other dogs and other days we are a twosome.  WhenContinue reading “Thoughts to Paws over…”
