Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Some people probably think I’m crazy for doing this, but what the heck? The ACVO or American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists is conducting a week’s worth of free eye exams for service dogs from May 4 to May 8. I’m sad to say it looks like owner-trained service dogs are excluded…unless they have some kind …

When I first read about Peepo, my reaction wasn’t exactly glowing. Now, as it floats around my head, I wouldn’t trust it with my life, but I would love to get my little hands on one to test. The basic premise is it’s another GPS solution, but it’s specifically a GPS for blinks with guide …

Well would ya look at that? It’s april 15. Two years ago, I came home on a plane from California with a certain black fuzzball at my feet. this must be confusing for some because 3 significant dates are all squished together, but I think they all matter, so I mention them all. It doesn’t …
What is up with everybody having their collective heads in the clouds today? In case everyone behind the wheel has forgotten where their eyes should be while operating a motor vehicle, they should be watching the road for both cars and pedestrians. Ya know, not everything you share the road with goes vroom. some people …
Guess what? A certain black fuzzball has a birthday today. Actually 6 certain black fuzzballs and 2 yellow ones have a birthday. Yup, happy birthday Trixter and company. You’re 4 now, eek.

Barb left a comment the other day under my latest dog post. It was the stupidest guide dog-related story, and it was so jaw-droppingly stupid that I felt it had to be preserved forever. Here it is. My friend ***name removed*** was walking with her dog ***name removed*** the other day, and she got lost …
Here’s a new one for ya. I ran into someone last night who thought those audible signals, ya know, the poles at intersections that go peep peep or cuckoo were set up for…brace yourselves…are you sitting down? Ok, ok. She thought they were set up to help my dog get me across the street! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! …
Well holy crap, can you believe it? Two years ago today was the big day when I received my Trixter. Sometimes I can’t believe it’s been that long, but it sure has. Last year, I summed things up pretty well, so I’ll let that stand on its own. But yup, it’s been another year, another …
Yup, it’s official. I have a pansy for a guide dog. She’s the wussiest wuss that ever was. We already know that she lets other dogs jump on her and try to hump her, and will cower under the desk at another house where there’s a dog, but this weekend, she was the biggest scaredy …
