Below is an easy recipe that will have you handing cookies out to all the dogs in your life. I created it for my darling … Continue reading 12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 10
I would like to start this post out by acknowledging that chocolate is very bad for dogs. I do not give my dog chocolate. Nor do I condone any dog eating–or even licking–chocolate. But, well, I have a Labrador. And when it comes to food, Labradors are exceptionally crafty. As I have mentioned before, ninjas … Continue reading Memoirs of a Princess Pupcicle: Chocolate Lab
Being a Big Dog in a Big City, Addy gets a wide variety of reactions when we are out and about. It’s usually fear. Mostly people try to disguise it, usually pretending there is a reason to suddenly cross the street. However, sometimes, it’s blatantly obvious. Addy is definitely a people person–uh, pupcicle. She loves everyone…except teenage … Continue reading Memoirs of a Princess Pupcicle: Teenage Girls

Confession time: remember earlier in the week when I told you that as I started sharing some of my series from ShezzaSpeak, I would start with my one of my favorites, Chalkboard Art? Well, that was a lie. And anyone who actually knows me knows that it was a blatant lie. This is because more than food … Continue reading Memoirs of a Princess Pupcicle
Did you know that labradors are never used as taste-test dogs? That is because they will eat anything with the same amount of gusto: good food, bad food, cookies, carrots, remote controls, whatever. Being true to the labrador lifestyle, Addy will eat just about anything (thankfully I curbed her non-food eating habits early on in life), but if … Continue reading Cheese Thief
Now that you have The Jackson Five playing background music in your head, I have a confession. You know those silly/annoying emails that circulate every couple of years in which you answer questions about yourself? Yeah, I’m one of those annoying people who not only fills them out, but sends them to nearly everyone in … Continue reading Easy as ABC…
