It’s a dog! It’s a bear! No, it’s a flying giant schnauzer!

poor East

I am very sad today. I arrived home from Boston to find out East was in the hospital, and they don’t know what is wrong. I went to visit him tonight, and instead of his usual happy tail wagging, he was just lying there. He didn’t even open his eyes when I called out his name and touched his face. A few minutes later, he lifted his head and looked at me with sad half opened eyes. He made the softest sound when I put my nose to his, then he got sick. East is the sweetest dog imaginable. His only existence in life is to love.

a.k.a. ‘Stinky’
Wow! Nobody told me they make such great cologne for dogs! Mommy loves it too. She always sniffs when I’m near her. Today, I gave her a special treat. I showed her where the secret stash is and how I put it on. There is this pile of old stuff at the bottom of the hill in our backyard. I think it got there from all the rain. It’s filled with all sorts of goodies.
Oh, it smells so nice! I dove my head in and rolled my head round and round in it. It was too small a hole for my body to fit! She looked so pleasantly surprised when she saw me, that I did it again for her. She even ran with hands in the air to praise me and to give me more attention! I love it when she sings, “Oh no, East! No, no, no, East!”
dogster.com - i scare myself
I’ve become one of those terrorizing people who obsessively talk about their dogs. As if that alone isn’t bad enough, I recently discovered this site called Dogster. Oh my! No, you’re not confused. It is indeed the Friendster for dogs. You want to know what scary really means? Link here to go directly to East or West’s profile on Dogster. Read their diary. Then you’ll understand.
Alex thinks I should go back to work soon…
alpha female
It took another alpha female to show me what being alpha is all about. Her name is Roxie. She is petit and very active. She is considered gorgeous by many. She had all the boys under her control. I'm not talking with a smile and a wink. I am talking about "come near me and I'll kill you" kind of control. Wow...
b.a.r.f.
For me, it would definitely be "Eck, barf!" But for dogs, it is anything but eck. I am talking about Bones and Raw Food diet for dogs. There is mucho debate within the dog owners community between the two type of foods. Raw food vs. commercial/home processed foods. I am a believer of the raw food diet, to a certain level. I agree that dogs have different food and nutrient requirements than we do. In the wild animal kingdom, dogs eat raw food. There may be a slight chance I am wrong, but I highly doubt any alpha female dog goes to the supermarket or light up a camp fire to cook hot meals for her pack.
dog grooming (how my puppies got ugly)
Yesterday, my two beautiful Giant Schnauzer puppies went in for their first grooming. My guy advised what to ask for. “Shave them short. As short as you can get it. It’ll keep them clean. It’ll keep them cool.”
Today, I thought about this “learning experience” and realized *I* was the idiot. Why would anybody ask for grooming advice from a straight man? Lesson learned.
There is some good in this. They don’t have to be bathed very often. And they are probably staying cool (though it’s not that hot yet in Oakland).
The bad? They look like crazy alien dogs.
The good from the bad… I now know to go with #3 when selecting clipper length.

By request, here are photos of East. It was very hard to get them to stand still. West would not cooperate, but I think these will give you an idea of what I mean by “bad hair”. (Poor East…)
