Happy Birthday Styx!
We all remember last year.......
This year he got his vet present early on Friday. I am pleased to report that he is in great shape.
Today he is 4. 4 on 4/4. Considering that it's Easter, that yesterday was Ching Ming, and the mythology of Styx's name, I think it's quite apt. But he is really 4, the age of true adult dogginess. And for some reason, ( Read more... ) -
Styx and his Security Blanket
Dasha donated towels to Styx some months ago.

But his undersides get soppy and ( Read more... ) -
I'm a choker. And my dog is a pack-rabbit.
The Kooba Lauren is being sent back. As lovely as the leather and design was, it didn't wear right. I knew it was a slouchy bag, which is why I liked it but it went beyond slouchy to puffed out. Much like my dog and his new bag:

New York Practice Induced Madness
I don't know how to explain my new shoes.

So when they became too cool as to become uncool again, I knew that was time to buy my first pair. If you recall, I bought bright blue happy ones. They are happy because when I put them on, I feel an ( Read more... )
