    Look what I found!! :D

    Yayyy!! I found a few of Watson's but I think he swallowed most of them. It's a really weird excitement. He is just too cute, and he looks a lot like Watson (only blonde) when he was that age.

    Insect Stings?

    Okay, just to let everyone know, Watson has not been stung. At least not yet. But we do have some wasps floating around our porch, and he likes to snap at them, because he likes to eat bugs, because he's special. I'm just prepping myself in case anything happens. What do I do about an insect...

    Oh my goodness!

    So beautiful! And I can't believe how deep her chest is!!!

    Most aggressive breed?!

    I don't think it's completely true. I can believe it to an extent though, especially with dachshunds and chihuahuas. Their owners fall victim to small dog syndrome and treat them like babies instead of pets, and don't exert any dominance.

    Piper is home!

    Good to hear it went well!! I remember barely getting any sleep those first few nights, because it always seemed to be "my turn" when he cried (never DH's...interesting :p) At one point when Watson was crying, DH actually rolled over and was like, "honey, the baby is crying." We don't have any...

    Piper is home!

    For Watson's first night home, he slept in the bed with us (the one and only time we've allowed this) so he would be close to us. Since they are used to sleeping in a pile with their littermates, we didn't want him to suddenly be all alone. I also found that he would lick my nose and whine when...

    Just read your member interview...as soon as I saw "Dr Pepper" as a favorite beverage, I just knew you had to be from TX, before I even saw that you are! :D

    Keep your dog happy when you are at work

    So true. I usually work on the couch with my laptop, and Watson sleeps right up against my leg on one side. Love it. I don't do a whole lot of work from home, but when I'm "at" work it's pretty flexible and I drop by to check on him/play/snuggle when I take a lunch break.

    Happy 'Paw'-ther's day!

    Happy 'paw'-ther's day, to all you fur-daddies! (and of course if you have people-kids, too!) Watson and I just made a card for his daddy...hilarity ensued after I decided to use red paint, but I already got it all cleaned up :p

    Animal bones = scary!

    So our apartment is right next to an empty lot/field...I usually take Watson out there to potty and/or play. Sometimes neighbors (obnoxiously) throw food out there, for the birds. Well, Watson just went out an found a chicken bone. Of course I know these can be very dangerous, so any time he...

    Update on Piper

    I believe it's every 5 weeks, but I may be wrong. We actually got the puppy 5-way shot at Tractor Supply (and most feed stores carry them as well) and did them ourselves (well I think we did one, and then a breeder friend helped us with the other because Watson was bigger and would squirm a...

    Gift from the vet...

    That's awesome, congrats! She is just too pretty!

    Spring time shedding..

    Watson hasn't been shedding much, but at the same time we didn't have much of a winter really...ahh, Texas.

    A real PAW-casso!

    I saw this today on Facebook! So cool...she makes Watson seem even more useless, haha! She also has a painting up on Ebay that's up to like $900, and the proceeds are going to a shelter in Oklahoma to help out, since they've got a lot of animals that got lost during the tornadoes.

    Rash? Allergies?

    Awesome, thanks for the tips guys! Like I said, I was mainly just curious because it doesn't bother him, but sometimes he gets a bigger one that I keep an eye on. Also, I just have to say that I love this forum and you guys :)

    Rash? Allergies?

    I wish I could, but I'm an apt...and they don't seem to cut it very often...

    Rash? Allergies?

    Yeah, actually, it seems to have gotten a bit worse since he came home from vacation with fleas....we got them all taken care of, but sometimes I'll find one on him. I'm thinking maybe he picks one or two up outside, and then they bite him and die (he has flea drops on) but he's left with the bite.

    Rash? Allergies?

    Watson gets these weird scabs on his belly/peep area...that's the only place he gets them, so I don't think it's any kind of food allergy. I'm wondering if maybe it's from the grass outside? He squats when he pees instead of lifting his leg (so girly!) so maybe it's from the long grass the...

    New Camera - Smile for me Charlie!

    Those are beautiful! The only camera I have (other than my phone) is my Nikon D40, and every time I pull it out - no matter what for - Watson totally hams it up!!

    Watson's Zooms!

    No kidding! Usually it's just the regular romping around and some fetch with his favorite squeaky ball, but sometimes I guess it just all bottles up and explodes into a crazy zoom!!! EDIT: It's also funny that I just posted that, cause he just went crazy and had another one!
