It’s hip to be Square

November 8, 2011

While it’s understandable that you’d think I was tipping my hat to Huey Lewis and the News, I’m actually going to talk about something slightly cooler than 80s retro music: behind the scenes, Three Dogs has been busy migrating to Apple from Windows. There have been some growing pains – mostly for Lawrence – but [...]

The Bumble!

I‘m taking this year’s pre-Halloween blizzard as a shot across the bow from Mother Nature letting us know that an awful Winter is on the way.

Happy Birthday, Boo!

November 2, 2011

It was eleven years ago October 31st that Boo joined our family. There was no way we could tell that this little black and white ball of fur we saw in a stripmall fly-by-night pet store would turn into the incredible dog he did. His mother was probably ill while pregnant, which left him with [...]

Professor Boo’s an even slower typist than I am, so he asked me to let everyone know that Ask Professor Boo is now back from sabbatical and ready to answer your questions. I asked him what he’s been up to and, believe it or not, he claims he had to take the time off to [...]

Everyone’s looking forward to Halloween, but what about your dog?

October 5, 2011

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays of the year.  It distills everything that a holiday should be – fun silly enjoyment – without all of the baggage and expectation that comes with many of the other holidays.  Halloween also happens to be the day we adopted Boo! The air is crisp, kids are running [...]

This Summer and Fall has been particularly busy here at Three Dogs Training, but at last we – like Pinball - are happily waiting in the pumpkin patch for The Great Pumpkin and you no longer have to wait [...]

Goodbye, Riley

August 13, 2011

There was no question that it was little Miss Riley telling everyone she loved them and everything was going to be OK.  The adorable, fuzzy, petite Ewok had come to Linda and her family only three [...]
