"Hey Loki, I'm gonna annoy you until I win and you will bow to my cuteness!"

"Hey, I have to tell you a puppeh secret."

"When I grow up I want to be just like Loki." "You'd better start doing something about those ears and cranking up the cracker little fella."

Aslan's mom, Marita, and her daughter Elenor, invited me to attend Aslan's puppy class. OMG, like I'm gonna pass up the opportunity for all that puppy breath and puppy shenanigans?

"You caught me! I'm not your Granny!"

We have the beach to ourselves.

All I have to do is mention Aslan kisses and the cracker shuts his yapper.

"Hello Mr. Wild Dingo! You seem like a cool guy. Will you be my best friend forever?" "Pop! Say it isn't so! Don't fall for this little pest's cuteness!"

Since we arrived in the 'hood, Ludwig and his two sisters have been asking their parents for a dog. Marita, Ludwig's mom and mother of two girls, plus 2 pet rabbits, had grown up on a farm and knew the responsiblity of a dog was heavy. All of her children are accomplished in school and various activities […]

This is Ludwig, our neighbor. From the first day they met two years ago, he and Loki were bonded. It's a relationship that has puzzled and fascinated me.
