Book Review: Emily and Einstein

Emily and Einstein, by Linda Francis Lee There are many different definitions for the word “dog”. In addition to using it to describe our favorite, loyal, loving canine companions, we also might exclaim “You lucky dog!” when a person shares their good fortune, or scold “You dog!” when hearing news of some scoundrel’s crass behavior.

Elle Lane Hike

This past weekend we had 19 people and 18 dogs on our 4 mile Elle Lane hike.  Us dogs got to swim, get dirty, romp around and eat lots of treats! The people got to tough it out on the rocky climb then got treated with homemade cookies and fruit while they enjoyed the amazing view from the top.  We had all ages and fitness levels present, everyone had fun and new friends were made by both us dogs and our mommies and daddies. We even had some cute gal dogs on the hike that I was checking out! (I
