🐾 Post Title: Chaos, Coffee & Cold Victories
This morning didn’t start with peace — it started with chaos.The vacuum came out, Clover decided it was her mortal enemy, and I tried to film a short somewhere in the middle of it all. CapCut, of course, crashed every time I tried to edit.I sat down with my Bible and a cup of coffee, hoping for a calm reset, but th...

New Blog Post: Why I Chose to Spay My Dog, Clover
Hey my Busy Peeps —This one’s a bit more personal. After Clover’s last heat, things got really tense in our home. Her hormones, behavior shifts, and stress were affecting everyone — especially Hannah.I decided to share what went into our decision to spay Clover, why it wasn’t made lightly, and what I’ve lea...
Clover's Recovery Update:
Clover was spayed two days ago, and she’s doing beautifully. 💕The first day, she was pretty out of it, but she’s slowly getting more alert — and a little too eager to play and jump on the bed! The hard truth is that she needs to rest and heal right now, so we’re working hard to keep her calm.She’ll need ab...
🐾 Clover’s Home — and Hannah is on Nurse Duty
Clover is home and resting after her spay today. 💜She’s doing well — a little groggy and very cuddly.Hannah had been missing her all day, and as soon as Clover was back, she curled up close to the crate to keep her company. It melted me. These girls love each other so much, even when they act like total siblings...

Behind the scenes!
Getting prepped for this weeks live and I could not help but think about how cute was Hannah was. This picture was taken after the last live stream, Hannah was tired and comfy from the stream. The way she was acting you would think she was the one had been talking for over half an hour.🤣

A few days ago something truly special happened.
A butterfly danced around Hannah, almost landing right on her nose—just like the scene in my book Joy Lost Her Toy.It stopped me in my tracks.Joy may be gone, but in that moment, I felt like she was reminding us that joy—the real kind—can still find us. Even through grief. Even in small, fluttering moments.I don...
Does your dog?
Clover sure does like her watermelon

This book is designed to help kids understand how dogs talk to us in their own doggy—way.In a few days I will release a few pages ONLY in patreon! And for members ...
Live Pupdate Tomorrow!
It’s been a while since I posted, and a lot has happened. Life with dogs, life with health, and life with loss. Joy passed away, Clover’s no longer in service dog training, and Hannah’s heartworm journey still needs an update.I’ll be going live on YouTube this Friday afternoon for a relaxed hangout and life upd...
I got a wheelchair and what my dogs think about it:
A few weeks ago we decided that I need a wheelchair to help me to be able to get out of bed and start living my life. Yes, I have a DNA test out looking into 15,000 diseases. Yes, I am looking for a doctor to help. (I don’t want to get swept up in the medical hamster wheel, so finding a good doctor is top priority.) ...
Think it will work?
My service dog prospect, Clover, says I have to stay in bed today. I think her opinion would have more sway with the public if her name was “Doc” and I could tell people, “Yeah, I can’t go out today, my Doc says I am sick.” #servicedog #chronicillnesslife #fibromyalgia #fibroflare
Last Behind the Scenes with Joy
As I am preparing to film my next YouTube, I remembered that the last video we did I filmed a behind the scenes video with Joy and it never got shared. It’s really hard for me to watch, I didn’t know that was her last one, but my goodness, was she as cute as ever!Thank you all for your support and kindness, I don...
Happy Belated Birthday to our sweet Hannah!
We did not do toys or a cake because she isn't into that kind of stuff. But we did make sure to give her EXTRA snuggles and pets because as you all know, that is what she LIVES for.
Life Update!
It has been a crazy few weeks in our household. Joy passed on February 20th, my oldest son’s birthday party was on on the 22nd, then I had a scary ER visit myself on the 23rd. I also got a wheelchair a few days ago, and I am having to learn to use it and get the dogs used to it. Hope life has been treating you well, ...
Hi sunshine!
Good morning! Clover is ready to start her day, even if I am not.

To those who contributed to Joy’s vet bills, we are deeply grateful.Yesterday, we held a small memorial for Joy. We lit a candle in her honor and shared our favorite memories. We laughed ...
Joy’s Memorial: Sneak Peak
Yesterday we held a small memorial for Joy as a family. Tomorrow I will share photos and tell more about it. This has been a very difficult time. And to make it harder, I had to go the ER Sunday night. We are so thankful for the kindness and donations made towards Joy’s vet bills.
Joy Update:
It is with deep sadness that we share that our dog Joy passed away despite everything we did to save her. She fought so hard, and for a moment, we truly believed she was going to pull through. She responded well to treatments, even wagged her tail at the vet, but in the end, her little body just couldn’t fight anymor...
