FALL BACK!


Hey! If you live in a large portion of the United States, where we still do many things I consider to be 'stoopid'... don't forget to set your clocks back an hour today, or you may be early for lots of things you've got scheduled.

At The Spa


Well, it's been a little over two months since we took Wyatt to the pet center, to have his nails trimmed, as well as getting his hair cut. So, we made an appointment for him to go yesterday morning. And this time, we also decided to take Quigley Irwin Wiggly in for pretty much the same treatment. Quigley has always gotten his nails trimmed on a regular basis, but this time, we decided to have him bathed and get the special 'furminator' treatment, to help with the shedding that he's been doing for about the past four months. The results are what you see below and I think we all got our money's worth.






I've been posting pictures of Quigley for years now, and this seems to be his favorite pose. He is a very laid-back dog. And for those of you who may be new here, Quigley is just over six years old and is primarily a Siberian Husky with Chinese Sharpei and Chow Chow as his next major ingredients. Somewhere along the line, he even picked up a little bit of Dalmation. You'll have to take my word for it, but his coat is soft enough to make a person think he's petting a cat.

Wyatt, on the other hand, is a little over a year old and his coat is coarse. The little guy weighs in at just under thirteen (13) pounds and is a good example of what you get when you mix a Pug with a Yorkshire Terrier. He is also, the complete opposite of his larger pal, as he is a little ball of fire, always on the move and ever-wanting attention. His little tiger's heart beats a mile-a-minute and he is constantly underfoot and wants to be included in every movement around him.







We jokingly refer to the two dogs' visits to the nail-trimming/grooming parlor as trips to the 'spa'. Both of our guys love the treatment and the attention they get. Included are also ear-cleanings and they get their anal glands expressed, as well. I wonder if I need my own anal glands looked after?

"Hell On Wheels"


Just a reminder: Don't forget that, tonight, on AMC at 9:00PM CST, the new western TV series "Hell On Wheels" has its premiere. You've been reminded.


And before that, you can catch the latest installment of "The Walking Dead", also on AMC.

And waaaay before that, at about 3:15PM CST, my Green Bay Packers will be in San Diego, taking on the Chargers. A good day for TV.
