Look at that pansy. He’s not even touching my hand. Switzerland’s softened the cracker. And I told him so.

“Everything’s fine here. Hope you’re having fun without us. Booo-wah-ha-ha-ha!” Can someone call my neighbor and make sure the house is in one piece?

Last week I brought Loki and Juno for a trial test day at Bernard’s kennel. Let’s face it. The place is a dog luxury spa. It has a huge garden to romp in. There are no cages. Dogs have access to the garden and house all day long and they sleep in the house. They [...]

I made a mistake and didn’t get Juno vaccinated. She caught it from Loki.

He’s a natural born beauty. If he were human, he’d be a surfer dude or model, with naturally chiseled features and six-pack abs that he didn’t have to work for. Unfortunately, with such beauty comes the heavy price:

One of the things I love about Loki is his ability to go from zero to completely crackers in 3.5 seconds–for no reason. He’ll suddenly bust into circle sprints: tail and butt tucked under, ears flat back, mouth wide open, eyes dialed wild and paws in full-throttle. Yesterday, Juno busted out the crack-a-tude too– for no apparent reason: Oh yeah, her body language meets all [...]

Last Wednesday, I hit an all-time low in my few years as a dog-handler, dog-owner and dog-protector when Juno gave chase to a horseback rider. I wouldn’t exactly say she chased them as much as she followed them, gingerly, running along side them and stopping when they stopped and trotting when they trotted. * Loki also participated in [...]

Oddly with a title like that, this post is not about Juno! It’s about Loki. Mr. Wild Dingo often comments that I portray Loki as dumb. Then I remind him that it was he who nicknamed him Retardo Montalban. And as much as I’d love to use that name on this blog, I know it [...]

Rarely, do I ever catch Juno looking like or acting like a goofball, or worse, cracker. She’s much too sly for the camera to catch her looking less than perfect. But every now and then, I’m able to catch her behaving just as cracked out as Loki, who is pretty much cracker whenever he’s not [...]

Below is a video I took on one of Mr. Wild Dingo’s home coming from a business trip shortly after we came to live here in August. The house is a bit empty and both dogs are excited to have him home. I’m posting it so the Internet knows what kind of cracker the three of us [...]

Animal Planet called the other day. They received an anonymous tip from my phone number about chicken legs that attack. They were interested in doing a series replacing their series about sharks. Hm. Think. THINK. THINK! Who could have called from my telephone and complained about scary chicken legs? “It wasn’t me. I pity da [...]

Like all stereotypical males, Mr. Wild Dingo enjoys critiquing my driving skills. Last month I drove Mr. Wild Dingo to the airport. Loki and Juno came with us and provided an eye-opening, err … ear-opening critique of Mr. Wild Dingo’s driving skills. Internet, feel free to make your own judgements. But I feel the impartial critics have [...]

Our friends over at The Thundering Herd think they have a big talker in their white boy, Snowflake, err … Quannik. Ha! What a laugh. I’d like to give them Loki for a weekend. This is Loki at 4:00 T-time (“T” is for “talk.”) A few of these days and I’d bet The Herd won’t be able to [...]

Our friend, Tartok over at the Herd Annex asked Loki for a little help in squaring a beef with his sister Ruby, who’s been gangin’ up on him. (Let’s all hear a collective, “Awe!”) Loki has a bit of experience with a bossy Siberian dame so he happily stepped up. Here are a few of Loki’s best tips on How [...]
