What is it about Moose and Summer?

by Aimee Amodio

Oh yes, it's time for another thrilling installment of How My Dog Moose Tried to Scare Me to Death. A quick recap: in June of 2007, Moose slipped his collar and got hit by a car. He broke his tail very close to the base of his spine, and had to have the whole thing removed.

A while back, I mentioned that I would be moving soon. Same complex, just a bigger apartment because I'm joining forces with some roommates. Those roommates have cats. We talked a lot about how to introduce my dogs, Moose and Lally, to their cats.

We woke to much anticipation and excitement in our house this morning. After eight weeks, today Murph was set to get his cast off. I woke up early so I could get him to the surgeon's office a little after 7:30 a.m. But before we left, I lay on the floor with him and petted his belly.

Missing Grandma Dorothy

When my mom first came to live with us, I don't think Murphy, Mr. Meow or Tabby knew what to make of it all. They knew who Grandma Dorothy was, but she lived somewhere else. That meant she'd come and stay a little while and then leave.

Courtney wrote recently about all the different types of jobs that dogs can have. It got me thinking about my dogs, and the work they do for me. Moose is Chief Executive in Charge of Cuddling and Lally is my Morale Officer with her squeaky ball antics.

I'm So Proud of Lally Today!

I'm especially proud of my boxer mix Lally today. We were out for a walk and she let three little girls pet her. Why is this a big deal? Lally isn't as easygoing as my other dog Moose is. Moose loves everybody.

It's with a heavy heart that my first blog back after a lengthy absence is to report that the Personal Pet Therapy Project came to an end on Thursday, July 3 when my mom (a.k.a. Grandma Dorothy to Murphy, Mr. Meow, and Tabby) passed away.

The Dogs at the Party

If you caught yesterday's blog about fireworks, you may remember that Moose and Lally were invited to attend a barbeque with me. I wasn't sure if I should bring them, but in the end, since I was going to be out of the house for more than eight hours, I let the pups tag along.

Last night around nine o'clock, somebody started in with the fireworks. I live across the street from the local high school and middle school, and there's lots of open space available between the sports fields and parking lots.

In TNR Programs Gaining Popularity

Aimee Amodio says...

"You might want to start with the three suggestions above: 1) Make sure it isn't a physical problem, like a bladder infection. 2) Make sure your dogs are getting plenty of quality time with the humans. 3) Try a pheromone spray -- they can be comforting and calming."
