I love my walks. When we get up in the morning, I stare at Mom and follow her around the house because I know we are going for a walk soon. Sometimes I have to wait a long time. She says she’s waiting for the sun to come up. I don’t care if the sun…

New Stuff
Sometimes getting new stuff takes time getting used to. Take, for example, the red booties Mom bought me a few years ago. They were tight on my ankles, and my paws couldn’t relay sensory information to my brain about the condition of the floor and pavement. The first time I wore them, I performed a…
Out With the Old; In With the New
I have a bone to pick with Mom and Dad. Now that the new year is here (and I know it’s a new year because my ears are sensitive to the pops and horns) I think it’s time to indulge me, the Top Dog, with some new and exciting stuff. Take for example my food….
Traditions
I like routine. When we first get up in the mornings, Mom puts on her walking shoes, grabs three plastic bags, pokes her watch, loops on my leash, and off we go into the big wide world. It’s the same thing every morning. When we get back, Dad feeds me breakfast. Sometimes when Mom leaves…
Share the Love
I can smell it now – turkey, dressing, gravy – it’s coming. I know it is. My nose knows about the delicious Thanksgiving dinner Mom will soon be fixing. That’s when the family comes over to share the love of being together, laughing at goofy jokes, and feasting on yummy food. When it’s time to…
Keep Learning
This is my graduation photo. I was just a little squirt back then and had passed my Obedience School Training with flying colors. My mom might tell you something different, though. It wasn’t my fault I wanted to meet all the other dogs in class. They made eye contact, so I had to give them…
Be Happy
I’m a pretty positive pup. I look at my water dish as being half full, even when Mom and Dad forget to fill it. There are always some slurps on the bottom I can lap up. Or I can always go to the super small room with the giant white water dish for a drink….
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday to me! Happy Birthday to me! How old am I, you ask? Let’s just say I’m a senior citizen. It’s about this time every year when Mom and Dad put a silly hat on my head, sing a silly song, and sit me in front of a toy that looks suspiciously like a…
Unconditional Love
When I was just a pup I remember playing with my two brothers in a place where there were lots of dogs waiting to be adopted. The three of us were pretty rambunctious and earned the names Curly, Moe, and Larry. I’m not sure what those names mean, but when our story is told, people…
Larry Writes Magazine Articles
Not only did Larry publish a book, Larry’s Words of Wisdom, he now writes articles for the Neighbors of Sun City West magazine. Well, he’s written one article so far, and it’s going to be published in November 2024. I thought you’d like to read what he has to say: Hi! I’m Larry. I have…
