One year...

Today is Frankie's 1st Adoption Anniversary. Yep, I survived my first year as a dog owner, and he is wonderful <3 :) The cake that looks like him is for the humans, and the cupcakes are for dogs!

The Other End of the Leash..

I just finished this book. I think just about every dog owner needs to read it! Whether you're just thinking about getting a puppy, or you've had a dog for years, it makes you think. It focuses on human psychology and dog psychology- the similarities and differences, and how it causes us to interact. It makes a lot of really good points! :)

Back to studying..

Semester 2 has begun. The subjects I'm doing now are Office Procedures, Admission and Discharge, and Specific Animal Care Advice. I already have 15 assignments!! I have no time!!!

We have a canine house guest...

Her name is Chloe, and she's a Shih Tzu cross Chihuahua. We're taking care of her for a few days while her owners are away. She's a cutie pie, and Frankie seems to like her (most the time!!) but boy is she loud!! :)

Ice...

This is not Sydney weather! I hate the cold.. yep, it was 0 degrees this morning, and that is ice on the windscreen!!

#BanLiveExport

Cast your vote to #BanLiveExport - For Bill's sake,

If you haven't already, WATCH THIS. I know it's easier (or more pleasant) to ignore it, but these creatures are once again going to suffer because our government has lifted the ban on live export, without being able to guarantee this kind of cruelty won't continue. Pretty obvious they only ever banned it temporarily to shut up the protest groups. Really disappointed that the people running our country have no respect or concern for living beings.

I was told to make cupcakes...

Nobody said they had to be boring! :D
I also love the quote from the RSPCA July calendar page- "Time spent with dogs is never wasted."
