Time Flies Fast

A little misty eyed today.

It has been 4 months since Pearl came to her forever home, joined our family.

In 12 days, Pearl turns 6 months old.

Where has the time gone?

Yes, it is nice to watch her grow up into a beautiful, smart dog.

But it is also a little sad that I can’t savor the moments when she first came to us a little longer.

She has a long way to go to being an adult pup, but a part of me misses the early days.

Although it would be nice for her to get out of her crazy, hyper, noisy, chewing phase, a part of me does not want to rush it.

I will never forget when she came. She just turned 6 weeks old.

I cradled her, rocked her, sang her to sleep in her crate.

She was so innocent, precious, little.

 When did Pearl become a 16 lb. noisy pup who climbs on the table, aggravates her sister, chews on everything.

Time flies fast.

Enjoy, savor and flavor every moment you can.

Pearl’s Back

Happy New Year all! The last two years have been trying, hard and difficult. A lot has happened. Whether it’s dealing with the loss of family members, and friends, navigating difficult relationships, there has been a constant positivity. That constant is Pearl. Whether she’s hogging the bed, going for our walks, licking my face, barking too much, she’s been there beside me. She's been helping me get through it all! Hopefully 2024 will be happier for the both of us and everybody.

Wild Child

They say beagles get calmer as they get older, nope not Pearl. She just turned 15 months old and Pearl’s been a handful lately.  Pearl’s adorable, loveable, but she sometimes can be a hell raiser. Sometimes I wonder what goes on in her beagle brain and why she gets into everything she sees. You name it, She’s chewed on or wants to chew on it. She destroyed our couch, torn up some of her toys, phones, quite a few pairs of my shoes, pens, pencils, walls, doors, quilts, chairs, pillows, blankets, 4 of my baseball hats, wall moldings, cardboard boxes, books, our living room shelves, her bedding, magazines, toilet paper, paper towels, clothing, 2 Wii sensor bars, router cords. Pearl also loves to get on tables, steal food and dig holes in the back yard. She has lots of chew toys, busy bones, bully rings, toys, but she seems to enjoy destroying my things more. She can’t be bored.  I take her for walks when I can, she plays fetch and tug of war with her toys often. She has lots ...

Thank You Pearl

I wish I could take the past 6 months and have a do-over of some of it. Our family has been through a lot lately and it has  been a challenging few months. While we were having our share of troubles, a blessing came to our family. The name of the blessing: Pearl. Pearl’s sometimes a handful.  She’s noisy, gets into everything, hyper and sometimes she can be a stinkerbutt. Pearl’s also comical, smart, playful, loyal, loving, a cutie pie, an energetic distraction to have around. Pearl has made our family aware that even when life looks chaotic, laughter, lightness can be found.  Whether she’s playing fetch and tug of war with her toys, cuddling up with us, greeting us with cuddles and kisses in the morning, chewing on everything she can, Pearl has made life a little more busy, interesting. Without Pearl, I do not know how I would have gotten through the last 6 months. Thank you Pearl for bringing lightness, love, hope, joy a breath of fresh air to our family.  Love you...
