2007 Dog Show
Posted in Doberman, Doberman Pinscher, Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier, dog on September 10, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Today was the 2007 Paws for a Cause dog show, sponsored by a local Rotary club. The show is a benefit for a Romanian orphanage. Phoenix participated last year and won “most macho”. The competition wasn’t very steep, and it was a sure win. This year the field was more diverse and, alas, he didn’t [...]
Dog Days of Summer

Not much going on these days. With temperatures hovering around 100, there isn’t much to do outside. We tried to go out to one of our favorite hiking trails the other day, but Phoenix had a really hard time. He does not do well with the heat, so we just chill inside [...]

Phoenix has started the amusing and rather annoying habit of faking sleep when he doesn’t want to do something. For example, whenever he senses that we are about to leave and he knows he must go in his crate, he makes a beeline for his bed and pretends to be asleep. This morning he was [...]

Recent days have not been easy for our dogs. The most important news I will post concerns my wife’s dog, Sully. Her parents were keeping him for us this Labor Day weekend because we were going to be out of town twice over the holiday (I’m writing this from Houston now). Anyway, as he is [...]

You can view Phoenix’s pedigree here or follow the link under the pages section on the right. This is a work in progress as I am attempting to procure a picture for every dog in the pedigree.

First Camping Trip
Posted in Uncategorized on August 19, 2006 | Leave a Comment »
Phoenix had his first camping trip last weekend. I use the word camping loosely because we camp at a site that has nice level tent pads and power to run our air conditioner for our tent. It is on the lake though, and it’s where I grew up camping so I have many fond memories [...]
