  • Help me understand…

    Hi, Guys. Can you help me understand school and frogs? Every Saturday morning, we get up early. Mom feeds Dudley and me while Daddio makes coffee. Then Mom and Daddio sit on the couch, drink their coffee, and discuss the world. They seem to have an answer for everything going on in the world, but…

  • North Carolina Outer Banks and Lighthouse Tour

    Hi, guys. I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to write about my trip to the beach and to see all the tall lighthouses. I’ve been quite busy with school, homework, birthday parties, and chasing frogs. We were supposed to leave early Tuesday morning, but Mom delayed us with last-minute packing and she still forgot…

  • School, Day 2: Walk Nicely

    Hi, guys.  This morning, I went for my second day of school. I’m the smartest kid in class. I know this because, well, it’s me we’re talking about and because Mom tells me how smart I am every day. She tells me each morning when she gives me my first good boy treat of the…

  • Strut. Don’t Fret.

    Yep, I’m bored. There, I said it.  I have read so many blogs and news articles about all the wonderful projects and learning opportunities people are seizing, and I laugh. Oh, I’ve kept plenty busy with projects, cooking, reading, writing, and learning. I haven’t just sat and pined over the loss of my Peace Corps…

  • A Battle of Wills

    Hi, Guys. It’s been a while since I wrote to you about my life in America, North Carolina specifically. Mom has been unwilling to help me with my storytelling. She’s been quite grumpy, if truth be told. I love her anyway, but someone needs to buy her some ice cream, the vanilla kind she likes…

  • Jacky Tales: A Lonely Pup’s Revenge

    Hi, guys. I have to tell you that Mom really upset me this past weekend. I’ve never been so hurt. She invited friends to our house and then shut me in her bedroom with Dudley. It seems some humans are afraid of puppies. Can you imagine? I did threaten to bite a human once, okay…

  • Jacky Tales: Blueberries and Boy Bits

    Life got a little more interesting this week. Monday, Mom took me, Daddio, and two of our Peace Corps guests to Cedar Grove Blueberry Farm. Daddio held onto me and pretended to pick berries and then blamed my curious leash pulling for his not be able to add more berries to the bucket. Don’t tell…

  • Be Careful What You Wish…

    My pop used to warn me to be careful in what I wished for; it might come true. These dire warnings came when I, in my usual childhood dramatic voice, would wish for no school ever again. As I grew into adulthood, I wished never to work again. I wish I could retire right now,…

  • Jacky Tales: Two Weeks Home

    Can you believe it? I have been home two weeks. Two weeks! I’m not sure how Mom has survived without me. She hugs and kisses me too much. I love the attention, but, geez, she kisses my head, massages my paws, and scratches my ribs all the time. She says that spot on top of…
