    Introducing Addition #2

    Thanks everyone! She is actually a dream for crate training so far. *knock on wood* She didn't have one accident in her crate last night or today when she was in there. So far so good! Wrangler tolerates her but is definately jealous of her. We make sure to give him lots of attention so he...

    Introducing Addition #2

    Introducing Mallie....the second lab we have brought into our house this week. :eek: I've never owned a dark colored dog before so I have finding it a huge challenge to get any good photos! However here are a few for now: Wish me luck...I have a feeling tonight is going to...

    Introducing Addition #1

    Meet Wrangler...AKA Chevy's dad. He is exactly what I would expect and older version of Chevy to be like. They have very similar personalities and looks....although Wrangler drools WAY more than Chevy ever did (is that a guy thing? ;) ). He has settled in very nicely and is sleeping at my...

    My Life is Everywhere Right Now

    awww thanks everyone for the well wishes and good thoughts. Our new little girl will be a chocolate ...and Wrangler is a yellow, in fact, he is the larger, male verson of Chevy. And yes we have a name picked out for the puppy but we are keeping it a surprise until she comes home... ;). Its...

    Horse Auction and Do-Gooder Rant....

    oo Maybe I should have clarified a bit more...the plant itself was Kosher certified...but that did not mean they always practiced Kosher methods. It was originally designed to ship cattle into the European markets but then converted to handle horses. I am unsure whether or not the horses...

    My Life is Everywhere Right Now

    Lately my life has been crazy!!! I finally got in for my surgery on March 23rd and am on the long slow road to recovery. For those that don't know, I had jaw surgery and my lower jaw was advanced 11mm and my upper jaw was brought up slightly. I am currently wired shut and will get my wire off...

    Horse Auction and Do-Gooder Rant....

    Oh this topic just gets me going! I am an avid horse lover and long time owner. My horses are my family and I love them to pieces...that being said, I have sent horses to auction with the belief they would go to slaughter. The sad reality is that our market is flooded and we need an outlet...

    "The Puppy" has arrived!

    Got the most wonderful phone call last night…. Our puppy is officially born! We are heading out on Friday to take a peek at them (there were 6 born when the breeder called with another 3-4 to go). And although we won’t be able to touch them for health reasons, I’m super excited to go see...

    I have an announcement

    Thank you all so much, the more I think about it the more excited I get. Chevy's breeder is awesome and she understood what Chevy meant to us. Luckily she only lives a 1/2 hour away from us so we will get to visit the litter several times before one gets to come home with us. :) I haven't...

    I have an announcement

    I’m happy to announce that sometime in April we will have a new little lab running around our house! Chevy’s breeder contacted us yesterday and said she has confirmed a litter out of Chevy’s dad and Chevy’s mom’s sister and asking if we wanted pick of the litter. I have mixed...

    Pierogis anyone?

    Since my mom is ukranian we eat perogies on a very regular basis (and actually I think a lot of families around here eat them regularly, they are very common in our grocery stores). I love all kinds, but a yummy treat are the fruit filled ones!

    So what is on your bucket list?

    I have had a bucket list for almost 10 years now and have been constantly adding and crossing things off the list. Currently a few things on the list include: - Build an indoor riding arena/barn - Get my western horseback riding coaching certification (currently in the works) - Attend the...

    Possibly maybe contemplating buying a house

    Find a good realtor. When we purchased our first home we had no idea what we were doing. We found a good realtor who took us under his wing and explained everything to us in terms we could understand. He showed us all kinds of houses...ones way above our price range and ones way under so...

    What pet vacuum do you have?

    I just got an Roomba pet series for Christmas and am very impressed with it so far. 'Andy' does a great job for everyday cleaning. We have a Eureka vacuum for those big, deep cleans and as long as we keep the filters clean we have had no issues with it either.

    Coyote article... One part stood out...

    I live in a very rural area, and we have a major coyote problem. Due to weather conditions they have eaten very well over the past few years and thier numbers are growing faster than we can keep up. Our provincial government recently announced a program that will pay $20 for every coyote shot...

    Saw Virgo Over The Holidays

    Over the Christmas holidays we headed down to visit my hubby's side of the family and got to see Virgo for a bit so I thought I better update you all. She is doing amazingly well! The guy who took her has taught her to respond when he says "I love you Virgo" with a "aroo roo roo" ... something...

    Wii Fit!! Sooooo Fun!!!

    I really want to get the Wii plus, sounds like a lot of fun! We play Outdoor Adventure a lot too and you can really work up a sweat if you want too! I heard good reviews about this game so I went out and bought it and for some reason I really just cannot get into it. I tried playing it a...

    Grey Cup

    Oh boy, did you miss a depressing ending (if you are a Saskatchewan fan I suppose). The score was 27-11 for Saskatchewan with just over 11 minutes left. With only seconds left in the game, Montral kicked a field goal which would have given them the win....and missed!!!! Everyone went crazy...

    Grey Cup

    Well, our entire province is in a state of shock after that game. I am still speechless. It was a good game and both teams played well....but lets face it, Saskatchewan handed the game to Montreal. It was ours to lose. :(

    Toronto humane socitey

    Tim Trow is a wack, I have nothing nice to say about that man. "Toronto Humane Society volunteer president Tim Trow cheerfully suggested that the controversy would blow over. "I'm fine," he said. "I've been through about eight of these here, in the time I've been volunteering – upheavals...
