So you want to know more about me, eh? Well, I am a Canadian, husband, and father of two young men. I would say boys but they are not really “boys” anymore. They are 19 and 17. But they will always be my little ones. :-) And, of course, we also have a dog. He is an Affenpinscher. Also affectionately known as a Monkey Dog. His name is Monty. Yes, it is after Monty Python as he is a funny, crazy character. Dogs have always been a part of my life. My parents started and owned a Dog and Cat boarding kennel just 20 minutes north of Victoria, on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia. I started this website as a way to give back to the dog community. Which is full of many extraordinary dogs and owners doing many different and exciting things. I hope you come back often to enjoy the wondrous stories I find. Thank You for your time and interest. Larry

We adopted 2 puppies a week ago – 6 wk old female pyrenees/boxer mix and 9 wk old male mastiff. In all honesty, getting 2 instead of 1 was on a bit of a whim and I later read people strongly advise against 2 puppies at once. But we are in it now and want to raise great, gentle family dogs. In reading more, it was recommended by some articles that they be crated separately so they bond w/ humans instead of each other, but they love to snuggle. I put a divider in their crate and they do not hate it, but they would rather it be gone. When they nap outside the crate during the day, it’s always together. I plan to have them both fixed, so I wondered, is it really a big deal for them to share crate space? I am working with them on some time apart for training and play time, and they do well both apart and together so I’m hoping if that continues, they’ll be well-adjusted with their humans. Honestly, I think my good intentions of educating myself turned into a bad case of making myself panic instead of just enjoying them and teaching them good dog manners and allowing them to exist. Any thoughts either way? Thank you.
