Friday’s Favs – Birthdays

November 9th, 2012

Friday’s Favs are quickly becoming “Marlin Favs”!!! I love Birthday, although not so much my own anymore.  On Tuesday the 6th of November (yes there was a presidential election going on) but at the Janicki Residence we were also celebrating the King’s first birthday!  Although,  on his crown it said that he was “King for [...]

Friday’s Favs are quickly becoming “Marlin Favs”!!! I love Birthday, although not so much my own anymore.  On Tuesday the 6th of November (yes there was a presidential election going on) but at the Janicki Residence we were also celebrating the King’s first birthday!  Although,  on his crown it said that he was “King for A day”, we all know that he is the “King for EVERYDAY”.   Marlin’s friends brought him presents and he got a special Happy Birthday Treat!  We also went on two walk, first wearing the crown and second with just the tie.  Pretty sure people driving by were convinced I’ve lost my marbles, but I just waved at them and smiled.  Anywho, Birthday festivities do continue tomorrow with an actually party at the Stimson Inn Kennel for the puppies from the litter that Marlin came from.  Click here to view his siblings from a year ago.  We can NOT wait to reunite with all of his brothers and sisters and play.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Marlin got all kinds of sweet gifts but got totally obsessed with this little ducky, he carries it with him everywhere, it’s too cute!

This is Bacardi!! She is an 8 year old Lab/Shar Pei mix and she is precious!  You never know how a dog will react when meeting you for the first time but as soon as our eyes met we were best buds.  She was calm and wanted to please for sure, but the treats she [...]

Friday’s Favs – My Baci

July 6th, 2012

Today is a sad day!  One year ago today I heard my Baci take his last breath. It’s a sound that is permanently embedded in my brain.  It has to be the worst sound, at least in my lifetime, it has been the worst sound.  I will never forget that horrific day!  I’ve been thinking about [...]

Today is a sad day!  One year ago today I heard my Baci take his last breath. It’s a sound that is permanently embedded in my brain.  It has to be the worst sound, at least in my lifetime, it has been the worst sound.  I will never forget that horrific day!  I’ve been thinking about him tons lately and reliving that day, one year ago.  I’ve also been going through a bazillion photos (which I’ve been putting off), but I know I have to because and it does help in the grieving process.  Makes me remember all the great times.  While doing so I came upon this image, I love it, I love the head tilt.  I could always get him to do that, although I had to lie and say “do you wanna to the park?” and the head would tilt every time.  I still can’t believe that I’ve been coming home for an entire year and he has not been there to greet me at the door.

I love and miss you tons my love, I will NEVER forget you, you changed my world forever! xoxo

Friday’s Favs – Great Danes

If you are a friend of mine on the FB or have “liked” the FB business page,  you might have noticed I’ve been posting a bunch of photos of two very handsome Great Danes lately.  Well, I was lucky enough to get to spend an entire week with them (while their folks went to get hitched in St. Lucia), and although they are a lot of work, I had the best time.   You might also remember the last time I dog sat.  YES, YES, YES, you leave me home alone with your dogs I will dress them up, or at least try to.  So when my client asked me if I would dog sit for her, I automatically started thinking of “outfits”.  I wanted Neko, the big boy, to wear glasses and a tie and Naya, the “little” princess, hat and scarf.  Of course a trip to the local thrift store was in order.  Well . . . what I wanted and what I got was a bit different but you get the idea.  Something might not be all the way right with me, but I just love to dress dogs.

This next sequence cracks me up!  He didn’t care for my glasses idea :O)goofy great dane photos

10 Things I have learned about Danes this week:

1. you don’t have to bend over to pet and or kiss them

2. they really don’t eat as much as everyone thinks

3. they play rough, but tire quickly

4. their head/tail can be lethal

5.  wearing flip-flops while walking them is a bad idea, actually wearing flip-flops around them period

6. they are not built for speed and have no spacial awareness

7. they are totally goofy

8. they have the coolest white fur spots on their paws

9.  they have a super deep mean scary bark

10. they are basically giant lap dogs and grown men and scared of them :O)

So for a week I got to hang with Naya & Neko.  Together they weight almost 300 lbs. and both slept with me all week.  I loved that I got to wake up to these giant faces every morning.   Neko is a European Great Dane so he has this huge square head and huge floppy ears and is not even two yet.  Naya is 2 and a half and is an American Dane, and even though she is still very large she is so gentle and proper.  Oh and she LOVES to watch TV, cutest thing I’ve ever seen.  She stands right in front of it, and her favorite channel is the Animal Network (go figure).  In summary, they only tried to kill me ONE time, and Neko only ate ONE pair of my shoes, and put his head through ONE window pane.  All in all I would say it was a successful week.
