Rain, rain, rain …

We have had several wet, dark (mostly) days in a row. Our pet residents are dry and warm, and composed. I feel a bit “under the weather” in a sense. This much rainfall is not needed. Yesterday was Canada Day, and there was not as much precipitation. I went downtown for a burger, cake and … Continue reading →

We have a beautiful assortment of pet guests this Canada Day long weekend. All the comings and a few goings have tired me today, and it’s almost time to get supper together. I’m resting and chatting with you instead, and wishing I had the energy that I had this morning. I guess in THAT sense, … Continue reading →

Crazy how fast the days and weeks fly by. It snowed again today. I refuse to post more pictures of April SNOW showers. I want to be digging and planting soon, and our main garden is still under snow, and most of the perennial beds are still partially frozen. It would be pretty icy to … Continue reading →

What a fulfilling work day I’ve had. I had the pleasure of grooming this quartet of cuties. They have sometimes been groomed at home and occasionally by me, and the owners prefer the dogs short and plain. I took the photos as I worked, but I should have taken another portrait after the darlings were … Continue reading →

Just finished cleaning the last head of garlic of … (what did we figure, Gary?) more than 2400. The garlic harvest is really Gary’s claim to fame, and he has done most of the work. I just happened to have finished this stage. And I have a blog, so I’m declaring it. Most heads of … Continue reading →

We don’t have big plans, and that’s just fine. I finished grooming at about 3 o’clock and felt too tired to go to town to bank, get mail, and shop. On the other hand, dinner is in the oven and smelling SO good! Tomorrow there are “Pioneer Days” events in our little town, and starting … Continue reading →

Yes,  I realize that most of my posts are a motley assortment of thoughts and news items. While not quite as random as my blog may seem, every day seems full of such a variety of tasks and experiences. We finally captured the toad in the basement! I was worried about him. Gary had spotted … Continue reading →

I fully understand that (almost) three dozen dogs does not a huge boarding kennel make. Some of my acquaintances/friends/peers in the business would laugh at us, being relatively “small potatoes”. Even so, this is, according to my memory, a record. I used to think that I housed record numbers at Dunster, more than 20 years … Continue reading →

How lame can I entitle a post? Sorry about that. It has been an eventful week … mostly good except that a neighbour died on Sunday. That is sad for a very large family; I was not too close to the grand matriarch who has “gone on ahead” of the rest of us (I made … Continue reading →

Lacklustre Tuesday …

Nothing’s wrong, things are fine and good, but after taking care of boarding dogs and grooming one very small shih tzu, I could not get motivated to do much of anything! I bathed Zoe yesterday. She’s a basset hound, therefore short, with a 3′ turning radius. Zoe’s normally quite content with us. I gave her … Continue reading →
