Radio Club Meeting
The radio club meetings were Marley’s favorite place to go. It was the only place where I allowed pet-her-philes to fondle her. I wanted her to know all those people were her friends — she could go to them in the event we ever got separated. She loved all the attention. When we’d get home, [...]

The Magic Closet
I still laugh when I think of Marley’s introduction to the Magic Closet. Marley was much further along in her training than Benny is now. She had been doing her “helper” tasks for quite a while and had been shopping several places with me.

Doesn’t that sound strange? But . . .
It was Benny’s first time to a doctor’s office. I was sure that was the perfect place to take him for his inaugural trip. And, boy, was I right! Benny’s [...]

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! May we all be blessed with a year of peace, love and happiness.
Unfortunately Benny’s new year hasn’t started out that way. He got a bath this morning. Poor thing. Always getting abused. We had to actually push him into the shower — thank goodness we have tile instead of carpet. The first [...]
