Uncle and Nephew I spent last weekend with two pretty athletic dogs. You’ve heard me bragging about Kemba (named, of course, for UConn/Charlotte Hornets hoops star Kemba Walker) ad nauseum since he was just a tiny furball, so…
Are you kidding me?  Another Kemba in the dog park??  Whaaat???  Of course I knew there was a person named Kemba.  Kemba Walker, the basketball player from UConn.  You know, The original Kemba Walker — my namesake my namesake…
Greg forwards me this Instagram of Ruckus at school on his birthday. “Cutest birthday dog EVER,” he tells me A shit-eating grin spread across Greg’s face, he looked over conspiratorially in my direction, and, in that instant,…
Kemba and his cousin Bruce, by consensus, get along as well as any two dogs can.  Or, to be Kemba shows Cuz around his home turf more specific, as well as a mellow, sweet, food-loving six-year-old black Lab and a hyper-energe…

It’s been a great Friday so far.  And yes, I do know my days of the week.  Duh.  I can also tell time, though this may be news to Beagle Man’s friend Rick.  Has anyone ever taken note of the fact that I wake Beagle Man every morning at 8 o’clock, give or take a couple of minutes?  And that I gaze…
