Lying Next to Sambuca: A Turning Point

It was a Saturday morning and that meant Tanya, our mom, was taking Sambuca and I for a walk. She always checked the weather forecast before leaving, and the tides of the ocean as well. If it were low tide, we would go for a beach walk. High tide and we stayed local and would…

Why Eating Your Dog Bed Is a Bad Idea

Apparently, I am one lucky pup. Or at least that is what my mom, Tanya, tells me. She says I’m lucky she adopted me. She says I’m lucky I have a big sister in Sambuca. I’m lucky that I get breakfast and dinner every day along with healthy snacks like carrots, cheese, blueberries, strawberries and…

Bacon and Eggs

Now that I know all about popcorn and it’s deliciousness, I recently got to try some other human food. Tanya is a pretty generous person. How do I know? Well, she likes to remind us, when we get treats. On weekends, Tanya makes bacon and eggs. Oh my, bacon. I do love da bacon. She…

At the Office

My mom is so cool. How do I know? Because I just know. Tanya takes us to Shubie Park where we get to walk off-leash and meet other dogs. On hot summer days, we get cooled off by going into the lake. She throws a ball just a few feet in and Sambuca and I…

Dr. Jane

A while back, I wasn’t feeling well. My stomach was upset, and I was tired. I wasn’t going into the kitchen when it was feeding time. Most of all, I didn’t even feel like bugging Sambuca to play with me and that says a lot! This lasted for a bit. “Oh little Appy, what’s wrong?”…

The Spider

Every morning when my mom, Tanya, wakes up, she crawls out of bed and goes to the kitchen. Sambuca and I jump off the bed and follow her. Sambuca stops at the living room, jumps up on the leather sectional and heads to her favorite spot, tucked into a corner. I hop up and sit…
