D.J. graduated from kindergarten last night. We still have some stuff to work on but he has come a long way.  There was a judge that judged all of us with our dogs and D.J. won second place.  We are so proud of him!

My Hectic Life

Dear readers,

I have had a very hectic life lately. Between more hours at work, volunteering for the up-coming Vancouver International Film Festival, and seeing some of the pre-festival screenings for the media, I haven’t had time for much else.

I have a backlog of posts to do here on my blog and hope to fit them in soon. However, not only is the film festival October 1-16th but we have just added a new addition to our family. A bouncing baby boy.


Meet D. J. His name is really Don Juan but we think that is a silly name for a Shetland Sheep Dog. He is 10 months old and shares my same birthday, November 9th.

The woman that had him originally bought him to breed but he has a problem with his mouth alignment which is hereditary. She place him in a home where he developed some issues so she had to take him back.

Bill and I had planned to find a dog after the film festival but D.J. needed a home now.

He really is a good boy but just has a few things to deal with that Bill and I are better able to help him through with since we have experience with rescues.

The day we got him was a beautiful day for a drive, which was good since we had to drive 4 hours to Cache Creek, BC to get him. We stopped on our way home to take the photos below.


I want to apologise to all of you whose blogs I follow. My google reader has been showing 1000+ for days. I think I am going to have to clear them and start over with your new posts. There is no way I will ever be able to read what I am guessing is over 2000 posts.

After the film festival and the readers and writers festival, I will be visiting my mom in Minneapolis, MN November 7-14th. After that I hope to become a more regular commenter on your blogs again.

Adoption Notice: It’s a Girl

Amanda enjoying listening to music with her daddy.


Bill and I now have the pitter-patter of little feet once again. It has been too quite here without Robbie and Tina. We came to the decision that it was time to open our hearts up to someone else in need of a stable home and parents.

This is Amanda, in Latin her name means “worthy of love”. That name describes her very well! She is such a sweet girl! We just have to get her to not chew through our computer headphones. LOL! Thank goodness she doesn’t seem to enjoy electrical cords, or it could be shocking. (Pardon the pun!)

I swore that I wouldn’t get another black cat, because Tina was black. Of course I got one look and Amanda and I melted.

Amanda is a Manx and therefore only has a little stub of a tail. Isn’t she cute? I’m not prejudice at all, not me. LOL! She is about 1 year old. I was reading up on the breed and found out that Manx aren’t fully matured until about 5 years. She loves to play and nap. She follows my husband and I around the house a lot. She is a very social girl.
