    On The Road Again

    October 2, 2023 /

    Biscuit here. It feels like forever since we went on a road trip and the time has finally come. I am so excited I can hardly stand it! We’re going to Oregon and I can’t wait to run on the beach, chase seagulls, and roll in stuff that smells good to me, but not everybody else. Time To Get Ready We were a lot more organized this year than we have been in the last several years, so the car was packed the night before our departure. The biggest concern I heard Little Sis and her hubby talking about was the possible long wait at the border because of the…

    Well its official. We are finally on our way to Montreal for our first 5K walk in three years, and a visit with our brother on the side. The Sisterhood had been training for this, and we could not wait to get our kicks on and start the walk, but we had to get there first which was an adventure in itself. We travelled over four provinces, two time zones, and a language barrier. Let's go girls!

    Spring has Sprung

    May 15, 2023 /

    Yup! Spring is finally here. Gone are the cold, rainy and dark days of winter. It really does feel like we are coming out of a dark cocoon into the light, where there is a renewed sense of happiness and optimism. Along with that comes the feeling of a new beginning, which of course means… time to start spring cleaning. Yay! I have to be honest, cleaning is not one of my favourite things no matter what time of year, but invoking the old “misery loves company” axiom, this year I convinced Biscuit to help. She’s not a happy camper and I have to do some sweet talking but she…

    The Littlest Hobo 2.0

    April 24, 2023 /

    Little Sis here. The Sisterhood, including Biscuit, met for coffee the other day and the discussion turned to some of our favourite Canadian TV shows . We talked about Wayne and Schuster, The Beachcombers, The Pig and Whistle, and who could forget about Biscuit's absolute favorite, The Littlest Hobo, the adventures of a German Shepherd dog who was always there when you needed him. It was a typically Canadian show. For of those you who have watched shows on the CBC you know exactly what I am talking about. Soon nostalgia really kicked in and we decided we needed to do a Littlest Hobo reboot, bringing it into modern times,…

    Biscuit here. Becoming a member of the Sisterhood of The Travelling Shoes has changed my life. Never in my wildest puppy dreams did I think I would ever become a “thing.” At best I thought I would be just a happy dog living out my days laying in the sunshine, chasing my tail, and getting treats for being a good girl! But boy was I wrong – it has turned out to be quite a ride! So, I’d like to give you a glimpse into my journey in becoming a social media influencer. Members Only I was honored when I was asked to join the Sisterhood, but quite frankly I…

    The other day Biscuit came to me and requested a cell phone. She said now that she was 11 years old and almost a responsible teenager it was time, and besides all her friends had one. Not being a huge fan of cell phones for teenagers, this threw me for a loop, so I told her I would have to think about it and get back to her. I will admit though it was hard to ignore those puppy dog eyes.

    TikTok Made Me Buy It

    Call me old fashioned, but I actually like to go to the mall, and shop. I know that most people now a days do all their shopping on line, which is something I vowed I would never do. But one day my world turned upside down when I discovered the TikTok app on my phone. My life would never be the same. It was an epiphany! Now whenever I see things on Tik Tok that I want to buy... well, I do.

    Biscuit here. Not only am I a Doglympian, I am also a foodie. You know, an expert on everything food and drink. Because of my preference for finer canine cuisine, the Sisterhood has asked me to critique a few of my favorite watering holes. I thought this was a great idea so I arranged an adventure along with a few of my gourmet companions, Lassie, Snoopy, and Hobo. The Sit and Stay The first place we wanted to visit, as recommended by our good friend Marmaduke, was this cute little Doggie Diner. It was not very big, and frankly the tables were a little too close for my liking. Right…

    The other day Biscuit was looking at the medals Little Sis has received from walking in 5k races and virtual walks with Big and Middle Sis. She got to thinking, if she wants to be a legitimate member of the Sisterhood of the Travelling Shoes, perhaps she should look at doing some sort of athletic event that would give her a medal to contribute to the Sisterhood collection.
