A Visitor this week (dog zone)


We have our second-ever stay at our house dogsit client. Her name is Maddie. And she has claimed me.

She doesn't like anyone else. She growls at them and protects me. Sigh.

I have heard of dogs like this, but never met one, much less never had once claim ME!
I know she misses her owner (a single woman) and is just used to her and her owner around. All these low masculine voices are throwing her, I think.

We are working on ways for me to leave the house without Maddie howling. That does not blend well with a work-at-home husband... :0

Wish us luck!

About Us

We are all on a journey, and this blog's reason for existence is to be a place to put mine. From humble suburbian begnnings just north of Dallas to a Catholic unschooler with a passion for faith, lifelong learning, my family and dogs, here I stand before you. Welcome to my world!
Authenticity. That would have to be my theme at present. To enjoy my family, be true to ourselves and our faith and be authentic and enthusiastic about life!

I love Dog Day Afternoons...
"What children need is not new and better curricula but access to more and more of the real world; plenty of time and space to think over their experiences, and to use fantasy and play to make meaning out of them; and advice, road maps, guidebooks, to make it easier for them to get where they want to go (not where we think they ought to go), and to find out what they want to find out." [from Teach Your Own by John Holt.]
