Brother #3 is back in Dallas. We had a great time while he was here. We decided that Pat’s on 9th Street in Philly really is the “King of Steaks”. David had someone to play video games with, and we all got to try “water ice” which is kind of like a slush. [...]
* Never use the kennel as punishment. You don’t want your dog to be afraid of the kennel. You want him to obey you when you say, “Get in your kennel,” or as I say, “Kennel up!” *Place treats and toys in the kennel. Our vet even suggested we start putting Henry’s food bowl into the kennel. She said to be sure we move the food bowl out before we leave. Eating in the kennel helps dogs associate the kennel with good things. [...]
Last week we took Henry to Petsmart’s Doggie Day Camp one day while I had to run errands. His first session was $18. Several pet owners told me Henry would be exhausted afterwards.

God has provided us with renters for our house in Dallas! We’re so thankful! We are going back to Dallas in July for a vacation, and I can’t wait! I’m worried that David isn’t taking care of himself. He’s working long hours trying get his department caught up. He’s not taking lunch breaks. He just eats lunch at his desk. I’m fairly certain he’s not getting up to stretch or walk around like he did at his old job. I know he feels a lot of pressure since the job is six months contract to hire, but they love him. He’s already helped out so much. And what good will it be to have a job in six months if he’s too sick to work? [...]
When Henry was a puppy we used a behavior correction spray that we purchased from Petsmart. It was a spray with a bitter taste, and it worked very well. We actually only had to spray him twice. After that, Henry just saw the bottle or heard us shake it and he would behave. So last night with me even more upset, David bought this. [...]
Hi, there! I'm Ashley. I'm a young Christian housewife that drinks way too much Diet Coke. My husband, David, and I have been married for four years. We have a dog named Henry. Our biggest challenge is David's chronic illness, psoriatic arthritis.
