There's always these dogs and one of them is a Corgi. Usually I only see the 2 of them, but today I also saw a third dog with them roaming the neighborhood. This happens very often. There are never any people accompanying them and they're just out walking about, being curious little doggies. I would really hate to see something bad happen to them. People need to be more responsible. I know who the Corgi belongs to and I wouldn't be surprised if the other dogs belonged to them as well. These peop… Continue

I have noticed now for the last month that he's got a very cute long strand of hair growing out of his nubbin. I don't know why it's growing there or if it's a usual thing to happen.

Murphy can finally jump onto the couch and chairs. We always had to lift him up before, but now he can do it on his own. :o) He can also jump onto the twin beds in the guest room, which is really difficult when I'm trying to move Stella over there so he doesn't try and play with her like one of his squeakers.

We went to Wilkes-Barre for the 4th of July to hang out with our friend and his fiancee. Murphy was excellent the entire time in the car. I held him on my lap the entire way there which is always a chore, but he slept most of the time anyway. They have a swimming pool and Murphy has never been swimming before so we wanted to see how he'd react. We put him in it a few times and he hated it. He acted like he was afraid. So we'd be swimming and he'd be running around the pool while we'd splash him… Continue

Our little Murphy had one of the biggest and most important vet appointments of his life on Friday. We really didn't want him to have to stay overnight, but they wanted him to so what choice did we have and we also wanted to be sure that he would return to us with a clean bill of health. We missed him so much, it was weird not having him around for one night. I'm so used to him being right at my feet all the time. We brought him home and he was back to his usual tricks. Chasing Stella and runnin… Continue
