In the blink of an eye, summer is almost gone. How’d that happen? Between painfully slow Internet access and frantically pulling together September’s masthead, I thought I’d grab some random Summer training shots of the brats at work. I’m so sad to see the Isle of the Ill-Behaved masthead leave this month! “I’m not so [...]
Sierra (a sweet German Shepherd puppy) and her mom Christine came for an unplanned visit last night. Loki, Juno and I were headed out the door to go to our beach class when the phone rang. Christine’s car was broke down about a mile from my house. She was headed to the same class. So [...]
No, I’m not refering to the skillet. Wild Dingo is still a strong advocate for training with skillets, rolling pins or waffle irons. This post is about a different kind of “beat ‘em.” If you’re a Wild Dingo blog follower, ya’ll know by now that Juno’s relationship with Mr. Wild Dingo isn’t, well, ideal. So [...]
A few short months after Juno came to live with us, she put on a few pounds that made her a little more than, ahem, voluptuous. With good dieting, and a change to raw food, she’s shed 6 lbs and has that last stubborn 2 - 3 lbs to go. (hmm…maybe I should go raw too.) Juno’s given [...]
The Answer to the Question: “How Many Dogs Do you Have?” Have a great weekend!
I brought Loki to a private training session this week. I told the trainer “I think Loki has a problem.” The trainer asks, “What’s the problem?” “Let me show you,” I reply. I turn to Loki and say, “Loki, Fetch!” Loki slowly walks away then turns around and replies, “So why are you talking to me [...]
How this dog, who can sit politely and patiently wait for me, can be considered … err … actually be “naughty.”
It was Juno’s anniversary this weekend. Saturday, August 15, she had made her 1-year mark of living at Wild Dingo. She (and Loki) got the usual celebration dinner: tri-tip, salad and a mini white frosted cupcake. Dearest Juno, so much has changed in the past year with us. In the beginning, you tolerated Mr. Wild [...]
Thank Dogs its FRIDAY! Woo hoo! How fast the week flies by when you’re working and playing with dogs. Training, hikes and house projects await the weekend. Have a fabulous weekend everyone. “Yes, I like this place. The grass really pulls out the green in my eyes.”
Locke found a foster and possibly an adopting family! Wild Dingo is thrilled. Sugar’s mom, Crazy Lady, looked into fostering him, but he was already in route to fostering and adopting. Apparently the word “sucker” is written all over Crazy Lady so instead she got to foster this little guy to the right, Willy. Oh my, what a [...]
Last week, posting was light because the TravelMarx came to town. I was a bit of a nervous wreck (which ok, is not out of the norm) because one of them is my brother and knowing that one of the two quadrapeds living here is a bit of a lunatic (I won’t name names…but his [...]
No words. Hung over. Caption anyone?
I’m a day behind in posting, so instead of posting a Wordless Wednesday photo like many of the extended pack, I’m going to post a Thoughtless Thursday– old photos that don’t take much too much thought. Wild Dingo has guests this week so posting will be light for the rest of the week. I know Wild Dingo’s 3 readers [...]
It’s a well-known fact that Juno and Mr. Wild Dingo’s relationship hasn’t been easy. According to Juno, Mr. Wild Dingo is potentially a bane of Sibe’s everywhere, and on a mission specifically to steal her gumdrop nose. At the first sign of Mr. Wild Dingo, she’s often seen retreating into a fortress of solitude: any [...]
Loki & Juno holiday annually on the Isle of the Ill-Behaved This month’s masthead celebrates a year’s worth of obedience lessons that has resulted in common passerby claiming, “they’re such good dogs,” or, “they’re really obedient” and my favorite, “they’re so well-behaved!” If they only knew.
