Free Range Canine

thanks for having free small cone day on Good Girl Gertie’s 11th birthday! We shared a small cone and a plain burger patty for lunch 🍦🍔

My friend who is an author and dog trainer has a new book being released in May that’s open for pre orders. It should be a good one!

How to Live with a Dog: Stories and Solutions for Humans with Dog Problems and Dogs with Human Problems Sparked by primal evolutionary urges and fueled by our common desire for companionship, dogs and humans have found themselves living together in a unique cross-species intimacy. No one knows this better than Laurel Saville, whose deep love for the furry friends in her life led her to a surprise...

In case you aren’t aware of where I stand, it’s important that I say this publicly at least once. My great grandparents on both sides immigrated here. This country was founded on colonialism and immigration. People who are immigrating here through legal channels are being rounded up and sent to detention centers and others are being shot in the street. It’s sickening. I lived in Germany for a year, 1997 and 1998. I learned in great deal about the holocaust, the Nuremberg trials, the effects of the division of east and west Germany and the unimaginable suffering that the Jewish people went through. And now it’s like watching a replay in high definition. I don’t have the solution, but what we are doing is not the answer. No humans are illegal.

Just found a sweet old boy running across Alabama between Orleans and Pacific. No tags so I’m running him to the shelter. I’ll probably be running late today 🤪

Happy 4th Birthday to Cubby! He’s basically the red headed version of Gertie. Equal parts sweet and hyper, lives for fetch and everything else is just background noise 😂
