First Snow 2007-11-21 15:01:02 Being from Mississippi we were anticipating some fun when Boris first got to try out snow. It snowed for the first time yesterday, unfortunately it was rather small in amount and Tim’s idea to take pictures without Boris on a leash was rather…hard. I did try my best and among the half pups, moving pups, [...] Read more:First
Moving on Up 2007-11-21 14:49:00 We decided Boris has just about outgrown his crate in terms of comfort for sleeping in. Its ok for in the car or a quick trip, but not really big enough to sit up in anymore. So we dug out Cherokee’s old crate from the spare room and cleaned it off. Which required taking it [...] Read more:Moving
Petco Fashion Show 2007-11-18 21:44:07 Yesterday was the Petco Fashion

You Wanna Put That Where? 2007-11-17 10:29:24 We had our second vet visit Wednesday with Dr. Tim. Quite the introduction:
Dr. Tim to husband “hello I’m Tim, and you are?”
husband “I’m Tim too.”
He was much better than the lady we saw the time before and did an actual exam complete with taking his temperature. We also found out his microchip went MIA so [...]
First Day of School 2007-11-29 12:49:12 Well our first day of school was last night. We were very excited as we searched high and low for a class, let alone one that wasn’t taught using traditional methods. We were a bit concerned that noone called us until Monday and the class started Wednesday, especially when our deposit check was cashed [...] Read more:First

Shopping Spree at Dog.com 2007-11-25 21:42:56 So we ordered some Christmas stuff for the boys Friday. We originally tried to order Wednesday but something went fubar and after much effort we managed to reverse a pre-authorization and re-order. Hopefully it will go out Monday and get here by Friday. Along with stuff for presents to be put aside we ordered some [...] Read more:Shopping

Puppy TV-all chewing all the time 2007-12-10 20:04:20 So Tim says all the videos I take of the puppy are the same: the puppy eating a carrot, the puppy eating a Nylabone edible chew, the puppy eating his KONG, etc. I say he makes the cutest faces when he’s eating. This is the first installment of Puppy
TV. Now with more chewing.

Now With Video Goodness 2007-12-09 11:35:21 Thanks to the kind people over at Youtube.com we now have video of Boris we can share with everyone. Much easier to understand the special qualities of our favorite goofball when you can actually watch him rubbing estactically on a carrot before eating it, lol. Not all posts will have videos, but we will be [...] Read more:Goodness
Second Attempt at Training 2007-12-08 15:28:38 So we went to our second attempt at training class last Wednesday. The business its held at is fabulous. They do doggy daycare, grooming, and have a small store for supplies/food/etc. The owner is amazing. Nice, friendly, and not mean looking. The trainer is cute as a button. She came over to help Tim with [...] Read more:Second

MIA 2007-12-20 14:56:10 Sorry the blog has been a bit empty lately, its been snowing here for the past week or so, every couple of days so I’ve been busy shoveling and salting. I’ve also been out working with Boris on walking properly and had planned to update after class last night when we got to see if [...]
If It Ain’t Broke… 2008-03-04 13:40:06 …don’t fix it. but what about if it is broke? Sunday was a long day in our house. Tim had to work, I had to keep the car and run errands and other fun things. Which means we were up early, and not fully awake by any sense. After we got home at some point [...]
What’s All the Buzz About? 2008-03-04 13:33:01 With all the advertising available online to people these days its hard to get noticed. Even a blog about a sweet, cute puppy is hard to get traffic for amongst all the other cute puppy blogs. There are tools out there to help set you aside from the pack though.
Buzzfuse.com is one of those tools. [...]
Help Mommy Win a Monster 2008-03-04 08:12:12 Last week mommy entered a cute Bobo picture into Bissell’s sweepstakes to be the new face of their Pet Hair Eraser Vacuum. Every week they take entries and allow voting the following week. Mommy
of course entered the cutest baby Bobo picture she had to help her chances. If you voted for me and mommy [...] Read more:Monster
Double Collared 2008-02-27 18:24:06 So one of the strangest things Boris is doing right now is wearing two collars. He has his tags on his Milkbone collar he got for Christmas. Unfortunately the clasp on it pops when he pulls so it can’t be used for putting him outside. He broke his Halloween one that way already. So [...]
The Great Outdoors 2008-02-27 18:16:34 So while Boris’s mom and dad don’t hunt themselves they do live in a rather hunter-friendly area and know plenty of people who love nothing more than to spend the weekend freezing their butts off to hope to bag a nice buck. One of the things the real die hards use [...] Read more:Great

Puppy Pedicure 2008-02-27 17:34:13 Today Boris went over to our neighbor who runs Alpha Dog Grooming to have his nails done. Despite the rivers and moats of slush he happily ran about as we walked over there and ran into he shop and bounced about sniffing everything. He sniffed the dogs in the cage drying, [...] Read more:Puppy

Why I Love Coupons 2008-03-13 12:12:17 Last weekend was another great shopping week. Dog chow was still on clearance 50% off 4.49 plus we still have $4 off coupons. Which means we got 1.75 per bag to use on the rest of our shopping. This week it paid for ground beef, last week it paid for a new razor for [...] Read more:Coupons
Swimming and Bobo 2008-04-08 18:26:11 Part of it getting warmer out is the chance to go swimming at the end of the road in the river. Boris loves water and seems to be ok with swimming. We’ve taken him down a couple times to go swimming (once to tape his application to America’s Next Top Dog) and he willingly goes [...] Read more:Swimming
Fierce Shopping 2008-04-08 18:21:46 As some of you may recall Boris’s daddy is a security guard and would like to train Boris in search and rescue. Living in such a rural area it can be hard to find appropriate gear for such work. Thankfully the internet allows us to shop from whatever store we [...] Read more:Shopping
Spring Cleaning and PR Oh My! 2008-04-08 18:04:14 So its obvious the blog has kind of been neglected due to a series of unfortunate events. It will be less neglected in coming months, and a schedule is being worked out to keep it somewhat updated. But first a recap:
First my life got busy. Trying to earn enough money to not work out [...] Read more:Spring

Lead Dogs and You 2008-04-08 17:55:27 Everyone wants to be a lead dog. Why wouldn’t you? This isn’t about leading the pack, at least not literally.
This is about leading the pack in sales leads and business to business marketing. Lead Dogs is a string company that has been used by Microsoft, Adobe, and Orbitz to [...]
The Vittles Vault 2008-04-09 11:34:01 We have our spare 40lb Pro Plan container full of dog food as well out in the living room. Its mostly wet food and weighs a ton at this point. We had more but recently got around to mixing and filling the boy’s regular containers. We used 4 bags of Goodlife (2 puppy, 2 [...] Read more:Vault

The idea is simple: anyone with an account can vote for their favorite discount designer upholstery fabric. The fabric with [...]
A Tower Rises 2008-04-09 11:05:31 We finally picked up the spare Jaffa Block shelf unit from my parents. We stuck it in the spare room and started piling on the food, treats, and the grooming tote. Everything fit except the plastic jars of Kibbles-n-Bits(all 6 of them) even after we took bags and boxes of food and treats to [...] Read more:Tower
What the Heck is a Bollard Anyway? 2008-04-09 10:43:27 I’m glad you asked. A bollard is a traffic device. You’ve seen and walked around them (hopefully they hurt if you run into them) many times. The are used to restrict traffic, keep vehicles off walkways and bike paths, or from ramming into loading bays on accident. They come in all assortment of types and [...] Read more:Anyway
Wanna Cuddle? 2008-04-15 21:32:34 Today Boris seemed to decide we don’t do enough cuddling in the house. He crawled all over Cherokee and insisted on sharing the bed closest to the window that was in the sun most of the day. Cherokee for once decided it wasn’t worth snarling at him and let him cuddle, and even chew in [...]
The Thrill of the Arena 2008-04-15 21:26:40 Despite the fact that spring is barely upon us, we are looking ahead to bigger and better things. One of the things that has always meant summer/fall to me is when the rodeo comes to town. I have always loved the rodeo. It comes with such diversity of events.
One of the best rodeos I [...] Read more:Thrill
And We’ve got Pagerank 2008-04-15 00:00:22 Thats right, after all these months of hard work and trial and error we have page rank.
