The Unexpected Pointer

The Unexpected Pointer

There are days when I need a really ‘good walk.’ A good walk is if the walk is long enough to change my mood and to get my dog ‘pooped out’ so he can sleep the rest of the day. Working from home has its perks… I can start later, as long as I don’t have any client meeting on that day.

The Art of the Strategic Pee

The Art of the Strategic Pee

I was at the David Lam Park with my own dog when I saw this dog. I don’t know his name. His owner, a younger lady, was at the other end of the park talking with her friends. Usually, when they go on a walk, most male dogs will pee all along the walk to say:

I was here.

A Very Patient Dog: Vancouver, BC

A Very Patient Dog: Vancouver, BC

I regularly walk along the Vancouver Seawall with my dog. I don’t live too far and it’s a downhill walk to go the Vancouver Seawall. I almost always have my camera with me, just in case… Like on that early spring day, it was nippy.

As a ’normal’ dog owner, me and my dog, we have our regular walks. These are the routines that my dog depends on. Every day, we do four short walks. The short walks are just around the block literally.

It was a cool spring morning. Normally, there aren’t many single women walking on the Vancouver Seawall, sometimes there’s an older woman walking by herself, but a younger, attractive single woman walking around is quite rare. Since I’m a regular (I often walk with my dog on the Vancouver Seawall), often I see how these single women get accosted or whistled by guys walking around.

Pig Ears: The Super-Sized Treat My Dog Couldn't Resist

Pig Ears: The Super-Sized Treat My Dog Couldn't Resist

Years ago, my first dog, Coyote aka Totos, loved pig ears. At first, I was buying them at the pet store, they were small and would give one to my dog for trimming his toe nails. I just had to make the sign and he would run, bulldoze the cat and put himself in position for the trimming of his nails. He loved them but after chewing on them, he had to pee about 20 times, mostly at night.

Charlie: The Bernese Mountain Bulldozer

Charlie: The Bernese Mountain Bulldozer

Charlie, the swiss mountain dog, is only a year old and he’s already 75lbs or almost 35kg. He’s not going to grow up in height but he’s gaining bulk every week. George, his owner, thinks that Charlie will end up being around 120lbs or around 55kg. Imagine a playful Charlie running full speed toward you to play with you! That’s not a dog, it’s an incoming bulldozer, watch out.
