Kemba Gets $48M Deal!
It’s Sunday night, and there’s Beagle Man watching his Knicks, once again, on TV. They’re playing the
Charlotte Hornets, whose star is — you guessed it — UConn’s own Kemba Walker! And watching from the green couch, riveted by his every move? Yup! His namesake: Kemba Herman! I know, cute, rig…
The Amazing, Miraculous “New Puppy” Weight-Loss Diet!
This is incredible! I’ve lost 4.6 pounds — I swear! — since bringing Kemba home with me last Saturday! That’s even more impressive than the results of my inaugural LA/XC Diet™ back in 2011, when I dropped 5 pounds (because I often skipped meals to make my 500 miles a day), but that was over a fo…
He’s Coming Home
Lots of fuss and excitement leading up to Beagle Man’s trip to Portland, Maine, this weekend to pick up
the little whippersnapper. The whole household is in an uproar. A week ago B-Man bought virtually every toy in Choice Pet Supply that was not made in China, as well as pretty much everything e…
LA/XC-4: First Peek
* * * COUNTDOWN: 169 DAYS TO LA/XC-4 * * *
Jk about starting the countdown already. I mean, I won’t even have a dog yet for another two weeks. But as I’ve learned from LA/XC-1, -2, and -3, it’s never too early to begin planning. And part of the prep, of course, means getting Kemba geared up fo…
The Last Lonesome Hike
On our way up to Vermont Thursday night (Yes, Beagle Man fans — MTK season is over; VT season has begun 🙂 ), I told Carol that since Friday was supposed to be a gorgeous, sunny fall day, and I’d heard foliage was the best in years, I was going to hike up Bromley Mountain. “And,” I added, “next t…
What Do Kemba Walker, Stella Herman, Ricky the Beagle, and Kemba the Toller Have In Common?
Five days after returning from my Halifax pick-the-puppy tour, I got this comment on my blog from Meg, a close friend of Carol’s since high school:
Hank: I’m on a ferry from PEI to Nova Scotia and talking to a couple with a toller……
Talk About an Adorable Puppy . . .
Marcia says Kemba’s “irresistable.” Lang calls him “beyond cute,” and Anne-Lynn writes, “What a sweetie! I want a hug.” According to Bill, he’s a “stud muffin,” whatever the heck that is. Polly writes: “If I didn’t know he was real, I’d say this was a stuffed dog, the kind you win at a carniva…
Where Would YOU Go To Get a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever?
About six weeks ago, after a painstaking breed search that was well-chronicled (maybe a little too well-chronicled?) in this blog, I finally determined that Future Dog was going to be a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.
Next? The hunt for the right breeder.
I looked into one kennel in New Jers…
And Now, Introducing . . . Puppy Herman!
Everyone, meet KEMBA!!!

The One With the Waggly Tail
I’d by lying if I said I wasn’t ridiculously excited about going up to Nova Scotia this weekend.
Matt and I are flying into Halifax Friday night. Saturday morning we’ll do a little get-acquainted-with-the-city tour, then grab some lunch. And then . . . The Main Event: We’ll take a 45-minute dri…
