BAD HARVEST by Dzvinia Orlowsky

BAD HARVEST by Dzvinia Orlowsky is a gorgeous poetry book (Carnegie Mellon University Press). Total paws of approval. We love it.

Time to Post Tootsie's Annual Holiday Crisis!

Sit / Stay / Read

It's almost time for the holidays, and guess what we want to do for all the days and nights?

We're happy to say "hi" and to share that all is going well. Tootsie wants to report that she feels the cold as a senior tube of fur, but her waddles still take her places. (And Dachshund Daddy does a fair bit of carrying.) Our vet Dr. Pozzi at Centro Veterinario Scairolo is amazing--he's incredible with little dogs. And, really, what would we all do without the littles? 🐾🐾

Love,
Renee, Tootsie, and Dachshund Daddy

Hiking in Austria

We're super proud of the hiking we did in Austria this summer. In particular, our hike to the top of Speiereck was our biggest in years. 🐾 🐶 🚠

 Us at the top of Speiereck above Mauterndorf, Salzburg, Austria.

I'm super happy to be back at Casa Burrow. In exchange for agreeing to have a bath, Mom did all my laundry. Even a little dog generates a lot of laundry on the road.

The Lowdown

Here's the lowdown: 2/3 in but 1/3 out. 🐾🐾

Also, a wonderful artist named Holly Sellors ran a contest on Twitter to submit a photo--and she would paint it. We submitted the photo below, but she picked a guinea pig named Judy!
