Of course, a night of blogging isn’t complete for me without posting a photo of the kids. Here they are watching me get ready one morning. They seriously make the world a better place. I smile and laugh approximately 50% more than I used to.

This morning when I was walking Buddy, a nice older gentleman was also walking. I noticed he kept looking at us, and by now, after nine months of having Buddy as my companion, I’ve learned that people ain’t lookin’ at me. So I wasn’t surprised, but I was delighted, when he came up to me [...]

So remember my goggles - the ones I had to wear for a week after my LASIK surgery? You know, these?
Turns out Buddy really digs them.

I’ll stop posting about Buddy soon, I promise. But I did say I’d post a picture of him in this pink Desperate Housewives baby tee. It was hot. And by hot, I mean hawt.

I took this here snapshot this morning. This is how Buddy watches me while I’m brushing my teeth and getting ready for work. Can’t you just hear the big sigh as he impatiently stares me down with that precious face? I’ll walk around the room grabbing things and he’ll stay perfectly still, just like that, [...]

A beagle won Best in Show at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Mo’ betta coverage in the New York Times. I’m sure he’s Buddy’s cousin.

You heard me. As if either needed improvement (they’re both great on their own), we learned this weekend that Asheville’s very own Tops for Shoes - a legendary shoe store downtown - allows dogs! T and I had taken Buddy to The Noodle Shop at Pack Square for a late lunch on the [...]

I have fallen off the blogosphere for a bit - what a time it’s been. The end of 2007 and the beginning of 2008 have been trying me and testing my character for strength and conviction. I think I’ve made it though.
Buddy is doing better, but it’s been a process. Here are some photos from [...]

Hello - and thanks to everyone for their kind comments and (online and offline) words of support. I have really needed and appreciated it! Buddy had a good night last night, is off IV fluids, is taking medication orally, has #1′ed and #2′ed on his own, is no longer vomiting, does have some [...]

I’ve had a few hours of sleep piece-mealed together in the last 24 hours. I’m delirious. I can hardly feel or think.
Buddy began throwing up last night around 8, just before my friend Katie came over to say hello. She left not two hours later, and he got sick again right before [...]

I went to www.justanswer.com and paid $9 for the following answer regarding Buddy’s issue:
If he ate that much leather, he should really not be feeling well. Don’t panic yet. Search the house first to see if you can find other remnants of this belt and then save all of the pieces so that you can [...]

Separation anxiety is surfacing as a real problem for Buddy. It seems that as our love has deepened, his inability to be away from me has worsened.
When I’m gone, Buddy usually hangs out in the kitchen, which is spacious and has a gate to contain him within it. He has food and water, toys, his [...]

Despite the occasional exploration of new “food” textures, such as paper, plastic and penguin gourds, Buddy is an exemplary little fellow and yesterday we were presented with our official certificate of completion for the obediance training we completed in October. I am beaming with pride.
For you Ashevillians, I took Buddy to Lucy Coronado, the trainer [...]

Buddy never barks, ever. He very occasionally howls. And at daycare he sings and apparently leads a fine canine chorus.
Here he is trying to help Asheville Fire Station #9 with their siren:
He never fails to make me smile and howl myself (with laughter) when he does this. I wish he were howling right now. Instead [...]

If you read Buddy Barfs Part II, then you probably glanced at Buddy Barfs Part I and so I don’t need to catch you up. Many of you are probably skipping these posts anyway, because who wants to read about the stomach contents of my poor puppy dog.
Well, I took Buddy to the vet [...]

Buddy Barfs Part I was about our hiking trip to Craggy when he got carsick. Buddy Barfs Part II is about how Buddy ate the top of a tub of hand cream three weeks ago (to show me how mad he was that I had gone out) and since then, has been periodically vomiting up chewed [...]
