Yesterday a neighbor came by with a chihuahua on a leash. She said that she found the little dog walking down the street alone with a collar on and dragging a retractable leash behind him. But she had to leave and didn’t have a fenced backyard to keep the dog safe, so she asked Patty [...]

Like most of the east coast, a huge snow storm hit Charlotte today. School was canceled, even for employees. Maegan enjoyed the snow day off from school and built another snowman (this one bigger). But I think Boomer enjoyed the snow even more than Maegan. Snow Dog from Mike Sussman on Vimeo.

Hobo was given away to good home earlier today. To repeat what I said recently… He’s cute and loving and great with children, but after a year and a half he still can’t be left alone or else he chews Darah’s pacifiers and toys, empties trash baskets, and sometimes still marks his territory indoors.

Being that Boomer’s natural instincts are to hunt down small furry rodents, it drives him crazy whenever he looks out the back window to see rabbits in his backyard. This spring there’s been a tiny baby bunny that must live in the field right behind [...]

Our Pug Hobo turned one year old today. It’s fitting that he was born on April Fools Day.

Patty came home to find this odd site of Boomer laying on top of Hobo’s crate, like Snoopy atop his doghouse in Peanuts. Boomer loves to lay in the sunshine, no matter where it lands. Look closely and you’ll see Hobo inside his crate, paying no concern to his upstairs neighbor.
