Puppy Updates — Here’s Diesel and Vera

By Kathy Broady MSW 7 Comments

Okay, okay, okay! I’ve gotten lots of requests for updated puppy pictures, so here we go.  :) Here's one little guy that we've been calling Diesel.  (For those of you that don't know this, we have a "cologne/perfume" theme to the names of the puppies, but Diesel?  What a weird name for a cologne, but apparently, it is.  I mean really, who wants to smell like diesel gas? lol. Maybe I'd have to be a guy to … [Read more...]

This post is partly for fun -- because you know I just can’t resist sharing more pictures of my puppies !

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie – or not?!

By Kathy Broady MSW 18 Comments

Let sleeping dogs lie…. We’ve all heard the phrase said over and over.   It means to leave something the way it is because disturbing it would cause more trouble or additional complications.  Fine, fine, fine.  Maybe for today, I’ll not address the troublemakers in life.  Heaven knows, I’ve run into more than enough of my fair share of dogs that lie….  But ok, I’ll respect the wisdom of the phrase and for now, I … [Read more...]
