... the first attempt at a blog.

Nice, ..... it's 5 am on a Sunday morning,

the wife is sleeping in, got my cup of Joe, got my woogie pants and house slippers on, laptop is on,

and I got a fuzzy little puppy named Tyler sittin in my lap.
.

Good morning,

This is a blog about my many adventures with my jobsite shop dogs.
and, Man,.... have I got stories to tell you!

But, I'd like to start out with a short introduction: Meet Tyler, our 10 month old Golden Retriever.

We got him when he was just a baby, .... he was so cute,

We called him fuzzy britches.

He's the son of two guide dogs for a wounded vet in a wheelchair.

Nice family, trying to make it on their own, bred their two retrievers a few times and we were blessed
with a very special little puppy.

Maybe I'm just like a new parent, bragging on their kid, who knows. He sure is sweet, ... hard not to.
He's a new chapter for us, another part of our life story to remember and celebrate.

How sweet …. you brought me a ball …. good boy.

So, .... you like hanging out with me while I'm on the laptop, huh?

He's just a dog, I know.
... seems silly to care so much about a dog that just wants attention, more food and likes to poop a lot.

But look at that face … don't you want to just squish him and hug him like a fuzzy teddy bear?
and that puppy smell … tell me you don't love little puppy kisses.

That's why we became dog lovers. Our dogs have been like our kids.

Hey Mark, perfect timing.

My wife and I just spent the last two days at a dog competition - first time ever. Our dog trainer also trains K9 dogs and this competition was really for them. We have a 1 year old golden retriever and we were talked into having her compete. I mean these dogs are just spectacular to watch. They jump walls over 7 feet high, long jump 11 feet, do the bite suit stuff, fetch objects like you never have seen, and all kinds of other weird stuff. All German Shepards and Belgian Malinois against our little Retriever. Needless to say our Sophie failed miserably - and proud of it.

All this to say that you end up doing the strangest things when you own a dog. Not sure if this is how I want to spend my Sunday mornings. I think I like yours better.

Steve

You can see my wife and Sophie over on the left next to some of the other contestants. Ha.

... like I said, too cute …... that's my boy.
Monte - Labradors are great too. We have a 14 yr. friendship with a neighbor's ol Lab named Ranger. He was best buds with Jack and Abbey and now Hunter swimming down at the lake. Almost crossed the bridge a few times but he still walks past us and around the block everyday. He was a trained hunting bird dog too.

Hey Holli, thanks. now you tell me! Ha! needed a new laptop anyway. Tyler chewed thru the cord and the electric tape from the repair is coming off so, he's chewing on that now. Sometimes, he pushes my hand off my mouse so I pay attention to him….Did I mention the teeth marks on the mouse?

Steve - that picture is classic! I love it Ha! those snooty German Sheppard's always showing off. they're no fun!
I'll bet you had a good time. Looked like it! Tyler would be out of control around that many dogs, at the moment. We've been working him everyday but the neighborhood kids are out and come running when he comes by.

They had a play date today with Tyler's aunt, Athena and all three of them went swimming for the first time after winter. He was only a few months old the first time he went in the lake.

Typical retriever… like a duck to water.

You might get a birthday card of them in a birthday hat or posing for a Halloween picture, but that's all.
No goofy costumes or fancy haircuts with bows for these boys, ... no thank you.

... the first attempt at a blog.

Nice, ..... it's 5 am on a Sunday morning,

the wife is sleeping in, got my cup of Joe, got my woogie pants and house slippers on, laptop is on,

and I got a fuzzy little puppy named Tyler sittin in my lap.
.
.
Good morning,

This is a blog about my many adventures with my jobsite shop dogs.
and, Man,.... have I got stories to tell you!

But, I'd like to start out with a short introduction: Meet Tyler, our 10 month old Golden Retriever.
.

We got him when he was just a baby, .... he was so cute,

We called him fuzzy britches.

Look out! ... we're going to the park!

He's the son of two guide dogs for a wounded vet in a wheelchair.

Nice family, trying to make it on their own, bred their two retrievers a few times and we were blessed
with a very special little puppy.

Maybe I'm just like a new parent, bragging on their kid, who knows. He sure is sweet, ... hard not to.
He's a new chapter for us, another part of our life story to remember and celebrate.
.
.
How sweet …. you brought me a ball …. good boy.

So, .... you like hanging out with me while I'm on the laptop, huh?

.

He's just a dog, I know.
... seems silly to care so much about a dog that just wants attention, more food and likes to poop a lot.

But look at that face … don't you want to just squish him and hug him like a fuzzy teddy bear?
and that puppy smell … tell me you don't love little puppy kisses.

Yes Tyler, I see your ball. let me finish this and I'll play with you ….. dfrhs7tiii9o …

Hey, Stop that … we'll look at Jasper on Facebook later, .... put your foot down.

My wife Lynn and I just celebrated our 32nd year anniversary. Yep, she's still with me. he he.
I'm pretty lucky to have her. We never had kids though, tried but it just didn't happen.

That's why we became dog lovers. Our dogs have been like our kids.

We don't dress them up like dolls but they do have a nice selection of bandanas and party hats.
They love to "Go for a ride?" in the big van, if it's not too hot.

lets try this again....

This is my Second attempt at a blog about my adventures with my jobsite shop dogs.
.
.

Good morning, ...... But Wait!

Before I even get started, I have an important update:

It was a sad day for Tyler. He was all brushed and ready to go but his play date with Athena was cancelled.

Dog Dog breed Carnivore Companion dog Fawn


Athena, a 1 1/2 yr. old Golden Retriever is Tyler's Aunt. If You look, you can really see the family resemblance.

Unfortunately, she had a tough start in life. She was badly neglected and needed medical care. She really needed someone special so her friends put out the word on Facebook.

We told our neighbor friend, Kim who had recently lost her Golden Retriever so the timing was right for her to get another dog. She was really happy to take her in and helped nurse her back to health.

Last Sunday, we all went for a walk to the park for the first time. They were running full blast, chasing each other like they were best friends, swimming out to fetch tennis balls and chewing up sticks for two and a half hours.

..... They had a blast.

Tyler went home and slept for the rest of the day…. We wore them out!

.

They had such a good time, we made plans to get together on Sunday mornings to play in the park.

But yesterday, Athena was playing in the yard and stepped through a sewer grate and broke her front leg.

Poor thing, they even had to bring in a specialist who put in a splint with 9 screws. She spent the night in the hospital but should be coming home today.

So, I guess Mr. Tyler will just have to be patient and give his aunty time to heal.

Poor Hunter, ....he finally had another dog to play with Tyler to help wear him out!

Not easy for an 8 year ol' dog to keep up with a 10 month old pup, but he tries … he's a good boy.

.

We might stop over later to see her, if she's up for it. I'll bet she'd like that.

I know Tyler sure would like to see his new friend.

.
.
.

Well, .... I had originally planned to post a story I've been working on about my first jobsite dog, Sammy
- an incredibly smart Black Retriever like no other.

A natural born Frisbee dog, he understood many words and silent commands but was fiercely independent.

He could out stare you with his intense eyes that looked in you like he was reading your mind or predicting your next move, like a wolf. But his smile always let you know he was very friendly. Everyone loved him dearly.

He went to work with me just about every day and became quite popular, even made the local paper
in the small wealthy town of Lake Forest IL.

He was one in a million.

I'll tell you more about him next time, if you like.

Until then, thanks for reading my first blog, Coffee Time with Tyler,

...... who is sound asleep under my feet.

Hope you have a great day with your dogs too.
