Two Men and a Baby (and Two Dogs)

Ah, such a good day we had planned!  What a great adventure it would be!  A sunny Sunday with my Two men . . . son Greg, my grandson, Ryan, Greg’s dog, Ruckus, and Kemba — all of us heading off for a hike around Lake Mohegan….

The Apprentice

Well, it certainly took him long enough!  I cannot tell you how hard I’ve tried to get through to that goody-four-shoes!  Seriously, how many times do I have to listen to Beagle Man telling his dog park buddies, “Kemba’s not really food-obsessed.  At least not like Demonstratin’ dog Carol had signed up both of us for last Saturday’s March For Our Lives, Manchester VT edition.  I told her I’d go — unless the skiing was too good to pass up.  I was joking.  I’d always intended to take part…

Kemba the Komfort Dog

Pure comfort Nope, this is not a P.S. to last month’s post on those low-life service dog scammers.  This is about a real comfort dog.  He’s got no official vest, and he doesn’t have special dispensation to hang with me at bar…

Useless?

Beagle Man and I have a joke about Mom.  We call her “Miss Useless.”  Here’s why.  Let’s say I bring a tennis ball to Beagle Man.  Will he throw it?  Of course!  Robby?  Yes.  Greg?  Yes.  Matt?  Yes.  But Mom?  Never.  I’ll drop the ball right in her lap while she’s reading — and she’ll just bru…

When Your Dog Is Sick

My wingman If you can remember back to when your kids were little, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about.  Or if you have a dog you treat like a little kid, you’ll also know what I’m talking about.  Kemba had a stomach b…

Truce!

Matt’s 36.  Greg is 33.  Robby’s 24.  So you’d think my days of dealing with sibling rivalry were history. Then came Kemba.  And Baby Ryan. Technically, they’re not siblings.  (Okay, technically they’re not even the same species.)  But now that Greg and Kelly have moved up from NYC to WePo, Kemba…
