Intentional TonicNot a Fan of February (2-18-2015) It’s been dark days at the Lazy J. For the past five vomit-filled weeks, we have been trying to figure out what is wrong with Scarlett. First we assumed she had eaten something disgusting because, well, she’s Scarlett. The vet agreed. But the vomiting kept up. Other dogs in…
Did I Tell You We Went to Town This Way? (Dec 2014) I took Scarlett to the vet in preparation for being boarded over Christmas. She and I had been working on wearing her Christmas antlers (working on Scarlett wearing the antlers, that is). She wore them like a champ at the vet so we…
Snow Fence (12-13-14) We finally did it. We have road markers and snow fence. Whew! Friday after work, in the short hour before it gets dark, JR and I put in the road markers. 25 or so of them covering all the curves in the road. Supervisor #2 “helped.” I don’t know how she can…
Time for Videos Round Two! (9-6-14) So JR has this “thing” he likes to do to me. I take Scarlett for a walk up the road and halfway up, he comes out and calls Scarlett back to the house. I am left walking alone. Now, I know it’s good for me, but I’m not out…
Time for Videos! (8-29-14) It’s been awhile since we posted any videos. This is Scarlett swimming in a shall-be-unnamed lake in which dogs are not supposed to swim. What a bother! The lake is located in a National Park…it’s the biggest lake…I think you know what I’m saying. Anyway…JR and I paddled around a bit…
Our So-Called Pond (9-16-14) The bulls…we are so tired of them. They keep edging closer and closer to the busted fence line. We are on constant bull watch. There are three that are just itching to get across. One day, JR and I watched them linger all day long until we decided to go shoo them…
Hi! We’re still here, working on some posts. In the meantime, Scarlett says, “Hi y’all!”
Camper Stairs (Aug 2014) More issues with dogs and stairs. As you know, Scarlett was raised in a ranch-style house in Atlanta (along with good ‘ole Timber, and we all know his trouble with stairs, too). In Montana Scarlett has been relegated to life in the garage. Oddly enough, the pups were forced to go…
Landscape – Phase II (8-19-14) The long-awaiting and much-desired Phase II of the Grand Landscape Plan has been started. It will be a no-mud winter for us! Well, at least a-lot-less-mud winter anyway. This was all supposed to start the week after July 4th, but got delayed until this week. We were starting to think…
Scarlett (7/2014) Technically, Scarlett is a “senior” dog. She is eight by the calendar. No one who meets her can possibly think this is the case. After Timber passed last November, our vet bills decreased substantially. Unfortunately, they are back on the rise. Scarlett was diagnosed with doggy Lupus about a year ago but we…
