This one is a story that stands all on its own. I’ve been meaning to write it since mid June. Well, here it is now. When I left training, I was a touch sad that Tansy wouldn’t have a crate waiting for her at home, especially since I saw how much she loved her school …

Tansy Updates, Great And Small, Part V
Is anybody bored yet? *hopes not* I’ve amassed an insane pile of observations, but maybe this stuff is only fun for me. About that, it seems with Tansy, I have this need to try and capture everything. I have tried to record her labby loops around the living room. I have tried to observe everything …
Tansy Updates, Great and Small, Part IV
So it’s morning. Time to get more Tansy stuff up. I have had so many firsts go by already. Tansy had her 2nd birthday back on May 31, and I didn’t blog a word. Shame on me. I think that must have been quite the birthday, we had a long day of work, followed up …
Tansy Updates, Great and Small, Part III
This list looks endless. Must…conquer…pile. How about some of her smaller quirks. God Tansy loves her kisses…sometimes to extremes. Steve jokes that he’s a big salt lick. Plus, sometimes when she gets going, it feels like she has a cat’s tongue. It gets all rough and sandpaper feeling. Sometimes it slaps her lips as it …
Tansy Updates, Great and Small, Part II.
Geesh I’m tired after writing that first giant post. But if I stop, I’ll never get started again. Really need to write these when they’re more manageable. I notice how much I learned from Trixter, and to some extent Babs. The way I react to the curveballs Tansy throws me sort of reminds me of …
Tansy Updates, Great And Small, Part I
Um, hello there. It’s September. I haven’t written in a long time and it’s getting so all the beginnings of my posts look the same. But I’ve been compiling a lot of notes, to the point that even looking at the notes file makes me want to run away. Let’s start with the easy stuff, …
Trixie and Tansy Meet, And We Get Video
Hi. It’s me. You know, the one who never writes anymore? I have a metric boatload of ideas for posts. Who knows how many I’ll get through…but here goes. I’d said a while back that Trixie and Tansy had met, and the meeting wasn’t the most wonderful. Well, they’ve since had 2 more meetings, and …
Tansy the Kangaroo
For some unknown reason, I felt the need to look at Tansy’s training journals again. I couldn’t help but notice how many mentions of jumping were in there. And it’s becoming a bit of a problem. I’m sure I can fix it with the right coping strategies, but I need ’em and I need ’em …
Trix meets Tans!
So, Trixie and Tansy met for the first time last weekend. I thought it was going to be this weekend, but it turned out to be last weekend. Hmm…I’m not sure how to describe their meeting. Tansy was thrilled to death and was her party animal self. Trixie, on the other hand, kept changing her …
Tansy Updates Part 2
Holy crap have I accumulated a pile of thoughts. Here is Part 2 of my Tansy brain dump. In a couple of weeks, we’re going to a family thing, and Brad will be there with the Trixter. It will be the first Tansy meeting with the Trixter! But I wonder if this meeting will be …
