Where Hurricanes Threaten No More
Terry Cross
The year that Hurricane Hugo came to South Carolina, we lived on one of Charleston’s coastal islands, a mere 6 feet above sea level.

Read MoreYak Dental Chew Review
Terry Cross
With only 4 ingredients: cow milk, yak milk, lime, and salt; I’m kind of in love with these Native Pet Yak Chews. There are lots of options in this category, many of which I don’t recommend, but this is a sturdy and slightly indestructible option for everyone from the teething puppy to the adult dog who needs to work on keeping his teeth pearly white.

Terry Cross
Thank goodness for Amazon’s speedy shipping; that’s all I can say 😮
When your good dog decides to ingest something unspeakable from the backyard and, after pondering his upset tummy, deposits it helpfully on mom’s snow-white bedroom carpet, the Bissell miracle that I didn’t even know I was going to need was, thanks to Amazon Prime, already delivered and ready to rescue my carpet!
Read MoreCavapoo Puppy Love ❤️
Terry Cross
Cavapoo puppy Memphis says to tell everyone he is actually the best boy of the bunch! He is such a character. When he wants a treat or a pat on the head, he scrunches his little bottom down and sits very politely, just like a little statue. He's watched Hastings perform for treats, and he's figured out that any and all cute behavior is rewarded with cookies. How adorable is that?
Don't be fooled by his slightly forlorn expression; some puppies, like some people (myself included), are not thrilled with having their pictures taken. I totally sympathize; he just wasn't at all convinced that my big black camera was his idea of fun. I have to laugh though; as soon as the camera went away, he was all jolly and bouncing around; the moment I picked it up, his eyes got big as saucers and he was obviously “posing” for all he was worth, silly puppy!
Loving his deepest mahogany color, that rich, wavy coat, and those beautiful spaniely ears. His disposition (as long as the camera is put away!) is sunny and outgoing and yet thoughtful. He’s a most delightful little guy and teaching him a whole repertoire of tricks should be easily accomplished. He's just slightly brilliant!
Postscript: Memphis is established in his new home and doing the job I raised him to do, bringing Puppy Joy! Isn’t this the best picture ever!?? They look like brothers lol!
From his new family…
“Best day ever! thank you both so much! Everyone is completely in love with Memphis ❤️ ❤️”
My Beloved Announcement Bar Is No More 😔
Terry Cross
Well, I finally gave in. My gloriously oversized and probably really annoying announcement bar is a thing of the past, and now, like a sensible creature, it is limiting itself to a few TINY lines, which will be difficult but entirely possible, I’m told.
I admit it had become a bit of a space for blog post-style entries, just a quick and easy spot to hop on and announce a new litter of puppies or a change in my favorite dog food, a coupon code, or just to let everyone know that Cavapoo cutie Baby Bella or her siblings had definitely found their homes.
Alas, all good things must come to an end, and my announcement bar now must live in its proper spot on this blog page. I'm not sure how that's going to look long term, Puppy People, but it will make Google happy, and I'm sure it will be easier to navigate my site without that 5-inch banner across the screen blocking the pictures of my puppies, who were supposed to be front and center anyway, lol.
You'll have to pop in here when you visit the site I will be putting the news where it is supposed to be like a rebellious but nonetheless obedient child.
Sigh, I’m going to miss that ole bar; it feels like I’m breaking up with my best friend!
Poor Ruffles... Voice to text is NOT my friend! 🙈 🙉 🙊

I wouldn't say I pride myself on all things technology. I'm no geek, but I've learned enough to be more than slightly dangerous when it comes to working on my website. Add to that fact that I’m the world’s worst proofreader, and my train sometimes runs completely off the rails.

Terry Cross
She is utterly the most charming little creature ever, that winsome small face, those big Cavalier eyes, what a total darling!!! She was quite pleased with her enormous plaid bow and thought she should be allowed to keep it after her puppy glamour shots as a souvenir but sadly, Mama Terry rained on her parade and put it firmly back in the puppy cupboard where all the puppy accruements live.

Terry Cross
Such an ingenious design, a new product by WOOF called the Pupsicle; I’m not entirely sure what category it falls into. Is it a dog puzzle toy? A canine pacifier? A treat dispenser or frozen yogurt holder? Whatever you call it, it’s a genius design, and every dog should have one (or two, so you have a spare waiting in the freezer with a cooling treat like yogurt frozen inside).
