Yesterday I had the entire day set aside for working on my book. I have eight chapters outlined and 6 of them written. Two more chapters to go until I have my first draft of Love, Laugh, Woof ready for editing and eventual self-publishing.

Category: Life with Jackson & Tinkerbell
Life with Jackson and Tinkerbell is about my black Labrador Retrievers. They are the inspiration for this blog. I started to develop the Love Laugh Woof lifestyle when Jackson came home as an eight-week-old puppy. I looked at him and realized that he was so new to the world that I could start him off without toxins and chemicals in his life. They are my best friends and constant companions. I like to share their stories to help teach other dog owners. Life with Jackson and Tinkerbell includes plenty of love, fun, and above all, laughter.
Jackson is the strong silent type in a dog body, and Tinkerbell is silly and full of energy. Jackson is sweet and serious and has a naturally serious look on his face. He is the smartest dog I have ever met and consequently tricks Tinkerbell frequently. Tinkerbell is sweet and gullible and falls for Jackson’s tricks all the time. Both dogs know a lot of words and are trained to do things like come running when they hear the tornado siren. They love to go on adventures and walks. Tinkerbell’s mission in life is to play with Jackson and always be by his side.
The blogs in this category showcase the friendship that I have with Jackson and Tinkerbell and the love that spans our species. I hope that by sharing their stories that I can above all encourage other people to develop the same love and friendship with their own dogs because dogs are able to provide so much love. .

When I saw it I had to order some for my customers to gift to their dogs; after all, how many people can say their… Continue reading Is Your Dog On The Naughty Dog List?
The Bad Walk
Dog training is all about repetition, so we will continue to work on loose leash walking as a threesome. Eventually we will get there. And in the meantime, a "bad" walk with two wonderful Labradors is always better than a walk without them.
Celebrating National Black Dog Day
Tell them you got it straight from Jackson and Tinkerbell: black dogs are just as sweet, loving, friendly and all-in-all awesome as dogs with any other color fur.

You don't get a Labrador so you can sit on the sofa; you get a Labrador so you can do fun things, play games, explore the world and generally live life together.
