We're having some issues with the computer and are unable to post.  It's not an internet issue (we don't have that) it is the ancient laptop. All is good other than that! The summer-like wea...

As our blog post title states, she is doing good...for an old girl.  No, no, this isn't a post written by somebody about the acdMom!  It's all about Callie. Callie was in to the vet for her...

The last few days blind Hiker has been "asking" to go somewhere.  She will sit and wiggle with her tail frantically wagging as I get ready to leave. I haven't been able to take her so I decided...

Sometimes there just isn't much going on... (Alice the cat is fine, she's a bit of an attention seeker sometimes)

http://acd6pack.blogspot.com/2017/04/just-relaxing.html

There wasn't much going on, it was cold and damp outside, the woodstove was on.   I was making supper when I noticed something. Trail was surrounded.  By the cats. Darby, Loretta (b...

It seems as though we are finally done with winter! Sunshine and temperatures that feel like spring so of course that means laying in the sunshine outside.  (all I can see is the amount of...

On Wednesday, our post was our blind girl Hiker in her crate. In her crate with her "things".   If you look closely you will see three slippers, a pair of shoes, a small stuffie and a ny...

You are probably very familiar with the advice of not making a big thing out of coming or going so that your dog(s) don't mind if you leave and likely won't have any separation anxiety issues. �...

There was another period of snow yesterday and it was interesting to see the differences in opinion of it. Here is what Callie thought of it. Typical Callie - she loves winter. Bill...

After all the snowstorms lately, we have finally seen a sign of spring!   Can you see it? Here's a close-up. Hooray, it must be spring - Callie is blowing her coat!

"Hey, what are you cooking?" "Bill...go see what there is. Maybe its something for us." "Are you going to share that with us?" Later, there was hard cooked egg shared on their dinner...

With the recent change in the weather, most of the snow is gone and we're seeing grass (and mud). A few days ago it was sunny. Bill Trail Callie Even though it was cold, the sun...

Trail was laying on the couch and starting to fall asleep while holding his favourite ball so I got the camera to take his photo.   As I crouched down in front of him, he opened his eyes and th...

Our blind and mostly deaf girl Brook has a little problem.  We know you won't judge so we'll share it with you.   Brook pees the bed.  Well, actually her crate.  It seems that she cann...

It was only a week ago that we told you about all the snow we received and the trenches and the snow maze in the fenced area. This is what that looks like today. It is actually a little m...

http://acd6pack.blogspot.com/2017/03/the-big-melt.html

With all the recent snow, we had to get a bit creative for play time.  Trail loves to chase a ball but with the maze in the yard, there isn't much space to run. So, best solution was to throw i...

We recently had four winter storms over eight days.  Lots of snow, cold temperatures and high winds.  As a result there was so much snow that the dogs could not get beyond the door without sin...

We've been having some cold weather the past few days, daytime highs of -16C/3F with wind chills around -27C/-16C.   The dogs are enjoying the wood stove but blind and mostly deaf Brook pref...

When we moved into our new home a few months ago, both of the blind girls, Brook and Hiker adjusted well.  They had very little difficulty with the stairs which were painted instead of carpeted...

The other day, the weather was mild (for January) and sunny so I decided to get outside and beyond the fenced area to stack some firewood.  Since it was so nice, I thought Callie would like to ...

Here at our new home there have been little critters around.  When the weather is warmer, blind Hiker is especially interested in sniffing around the fence perimeter. There was a mishap with...

Trail's foster Mom sent us a ball recently. (Thanks again D!)  This will be primarily an outside ball for playing fetch and chasing around.  While working on the woodpile, the big deaf guy see...

All of us have heard that dogs should have a cool wet nose, right? Trail sometimes prefers to have a warm nose.
