Another Christmas has come and gone, and A.J. has been as entertaining as ever. No trips to the emergency room, just a lot of fun with our mischievous boy. Here are a few of the things A.J. did that made us laugh: Playing with Legos Greg and I received some small toys in our Christmas …

Bedtime
We found a new place to board A.J. It’s a kennel without kennels. They call it "cage-free boarding." It's a place where dozens of dogs who get to spend all day and all night together. At night the dogs go into a big room lined with beds that they all share. Due to our …
A.J. Gets Comfy
We went to see a show last night. The theater is just across the street from our neighborhood so we walked over. Normally when we go somewhere without A.J. we either drive or ride the bikes, so he hears the garage door when we get home and meets us at the door. Last night when we …
He’s Much Better, Really
January 17, 2014 This morning we went to the park again. Other than A.J. still pulling like crazy we had a good walk. We saw several dogs, and one even reacted to him, but he didn’t react back. So other than the pulling it wasn’t bad. Then we went straight from the park to the …
Our First Thunderstorm
August 13, 2013 We had a little bit of a thunderstorm around 3 AM. A.J. did great. He woke me up, but I got up, petted him for a few minutes, went back to bed and we all slept through the rest of the storm. He insisted on getting up at 6:30 again. I was …
Another Terrible Walk
August 12, 2013 We’re still dealing with A.J.’s open wound from the cheatgrass. Cleaning it out and getting the sock on have been quite the challenge. He mouthed at me several times while I tried to put the sock on. The last couple of times he’s pretty much given up, finally. We had a terrible …
New Home, Day 5
July 30, 2013 A.J. was up periodically throughout the night again, but he wasn’t coughing. I’d wake up occasionally wondering where he was, but he didn’t seem to be doing any damage. Around 4 AM he came over and I petted him for a little while. At 6:00 he was up. Greg got up and …
Week One Continues
July 29, 2013 We all got a good night’s sleep last night. I didn’t have to chase A.J. off the bed even once, he just laid down on his own bed. He slept until 4 AM, at which time I just petted him for a little while and he curled back up and went to …
Day 2
July 27, 2013 Day 2 with A.J. started around 4 AM. He’d had a lot to drink the night before, so I was on the alert for any movement from him. I woke up around 4 AM and he was up and moving around, so I took him out. What a beautiful night. The moon …
Adoption Day
July 26, 2013 This was Adoption Day. PetSmart opened at 10:00, so we left the house at 9:45 and arrived at 10:05. We started all the paperwork and they brought our dog out. When all the paperwork was done we needed to shop, we had absolutely no dog supplies at all. First we took him outside …
