To sneak me out and find McDonald's we had to take a short bike ride through the streets of Bangalore.

HOT DOGS!

Hi Ellie,

Slobbie and Cart writing to say “Hi”. We miss you!

Yes there is far less dog hair around but we cannot get out of rooms without you opening the doors for us. We have been in the air conditioned bedroom for days. It was great. We did not want to leave the cool [...]

Maine Canine News

Hi Ellie,

Happy Passover! Just had some Matzo..it was plain..would have preferred some peanut butter with it.

Sorry it has taken so long to write but I cannot get to the computer without you being here. Cart and I miss you and so does Harlow. She says you were so much fun to annoy and [...]

Doguments

Well Dad Slobbie is just so jealous of me that we are getting into verbal arguments. She just cannot stand when G_Mom pays attention to me. We all have our own time with G_Mom and mine is when we settled down on the couch. I am not allowed on the couch but I sit and [...]

Canine Remedial Listening Classes

Hi Dad,

G_Mom said I should tell you that I am attending canine remedial listening classes. I am not stupid and have a rather large canine vocabulary, however I have an excellent case of selective listening, which apparently is very frustrating to humans.

Fortunately I did not have any privileges taken away.  I am not [...]

Snowland

Hi Dad,

Thanks for the food and treats! Sorry I haven’t written. Just been really busy dealing with winter. Guess G_Mom told you we were all sick and just staying in bed for several days. Better now! I hurt my thigh doing Wii Yoga, so I had to behave for several days. It really fooled [...]

The Big Pinecone BUST

Dear Dad,

Is Maine not the Pine Tree State? So why am I in trouble for eating pinecones? Look Dad they are everywhere in my reach at G-Mom’s house. What the big deal?  They are free! The big deal is apparently that G_Mom has scented these Pinecones to make the house smell less dog like, [...]

Maine-cation resumes

Hi Dad,

Ellie here. Well I do miss you but I am having a great time. I had a blast last night with Harlow. G_Mom was on the phone with Kt and Harlow attacked me from under the coffee table…it was so much fun. I was barking at her and she was swatting me with [...]

aquaDRAMA 4.0

My fourth tank is currently sitting in my living room waiting to be setup. This is another leap forward in the history of aduaDRAMA.

Background: The current tank suffered a rather bad leak last week. The overflow sprang an air leak, causing the tank to overflow as the pump continued to pump water out of [...]

We Miss You!!!!!!!!

Hi Ellie,

Happy Halloween! How are you? Cart and I really miss you and G_Mom often goes looking for you when she calls your name and you did not show up.

As I am sure you can imagine, everything has been cleaned and the house winterized. The only problem being it that it is 67 [...]

I Got Broomed!

Hi Dad,

Ellie here.

Well most of my canine friends get groomed, but not me, I get BROOMED!

Not sure if this is a Maine cultural tradition but G_Mom sweeps me every day now and I love it. I have my very own broom. G_Mom even explained the difference between brooms to me. I cannot [...]

Dog Days and Earl’s Coming To Visit

Dad this weather is unbelievable. There is a heat advisory out and we are not allowed to leave the air-conditioned room except for bathroom and food breaks. Now I hear G-Mom talking about some guy named Earl coming to visit. It is way too hot to entertain. All of the shades and blinds are pulled [...]

Fan or Wood Stove…That’s Maine

Well Dad last night I got to lounge in front of the wood stove! Two days ago I was in front of my fan. A cold northeast wind blew in and even I have to admit it was chilly. Of course G_MOM had just plucked out my entire coat, so I was a lot lighter [...]

BYE JOSH and GOOD LUCK!

Dad,

Hope you are well. It has been so hot and humid here and G_Mom keeps us in the air conditioned bedroom, so I cannot get to the computer! However I figured out how to open the door and last night we got caught. G_Mom came home and we did not hear her….OH BOY…trouble in [...]

Life in Batty Maine

OK Dad, in less than one week I have endured tornadoes and a bat in the house. Is this really “the way life should be”?

This place is nuts! It took two policemen an hour to get the same bat out last night. We came in from being outside around 9 o’clock and Slobbie spotted [...]

Tornados Not Snow Hit Maine

Hi Dad,

Did you ever spend time in a bath tub with three dogs, and a cat? Not fun let me tell you…we were all scared…even me! Below is the headline from the Portland Press Herald.

Explosive thunderstorms that triggered tornados throughout southern    Maine knocked down trees and power lines, flooded streets and damaged   homes [...]
