Late Spring Snow in Georgetown

Posted on March 29, 2022March 24, 2022 by Sandra

A late spring snowstorm arrived! We love walking James in the snow! He doesn’t mind wearing his dog winter coat and dog boots, too. The next morning, I noticed our community water bowl that I leave out for the dogs of Georgetown was frozen and covered in snow! That didn’t stop James from trying to…

More Tidal Basin Cherry Blossoms

Posted on March 28, 2022March 24, 2022 by Sandra

I enjoy getting up really early to walk around the National Mall in Washington, DC. The crowds are smaller and it is usually nice and quiet. It was a little bit cool and overcast, though. I would have preferred a warm sunny day! But summer will be here soon enough!

Georgetown Cherry Blossoms

Posted on March 25, 2022March 24, 2022 by Sandra

The cherry blossoms in the East Village of Georgetown are in full bloom! I walked over to one of my favorite parks, Rose Park, and brought James along as my model. On our way home, we walked past the neighbor with multiple Ferraris that he parks on the streets of Georgetown and I thought the…

The spring flowers in Georgetown always make me smile! They are everywhere! Tree boxes near the street have flowers, front yards have flowers and window boxes have flowers.

James the Therapy Dog in the Springtime

Posted on March 23, 2022March 21, 2022 by Sandra

The daffodils are popping up all over and spring is here! James sometimes wears fun costumes for his therapy dog work. For St. Patrick’s Day James has a funky green hat we found in New Orleans years ago: James also has a cowboy hat that he wears for visits. He will actually keep the cowboy…

James just wants to enjoy his morning walks and I stop him so often to take photos! The fall leaves are just so beautiful! I made a new bandana for James with leaves, too:

Fall in Ohio

Posted on November 9, 2020November 9, 2020 by Sandra

I love the beauty in changing seasons. I love that one day a tree will look one way and the next day it can look completely different. I took a bunch of photos the other day here in Ohio – everywhere we go the colors are so beautiful! This house has a LOT of pumpkins:…

Vintage Photos with Poodles

Posted on September 16, 2020September 16, 2020 by Sandra

I fell down a rabbit hole of vintage Poodle photos this afternoon. I finally had to put my laptop away! So many of these vintage photos made me smile! This one is so cute because she has a Poodle handbag! I think she just said “I want another Poodle” ha:

James gets Professionally Groomed – Finally!

Posted on September 10, 2020September 10, 2020 by Sandra

We all know this has been a weird year with Covid and business shutdowns. James was groomed in Atlanta back in January 2020 and then for non-Covid reasons, I decided to buy this Arco Cordless clipper kit on Amazon. I had been joining James on grooming visits since his groom in Nuremberg, Germany and I…

James the Poodle: Six Weeks Old

Posted on March 19, 2020March 19, 2020 by Sandra

I posted back in September the old photos I found of James when he was three weeks old. I realized today that I never posted his six week photos! James was so tiny – he could be bathed in the kitchen sink! James and all of his Standard Poodle littermates: One puppy wandered off the…

Spring in Switzerland

Posted on March 5, 2020March 2, 2020 by Sandra

It seems like it has been a long and cold winter. But the days are sunny and the temperatures aren’t quite so cold here in Geneva (we still have our radiators on though). I was excited to see signs of Spring in the park: crocuses and daffodils! We planted a bunch of bulbs in our…

Beautiful Marseille, France

Posted on February 7, 2020February 3, 2020 by Sandra

Marseille is definitely one of my favorite cities in France. I’ve been waking up before sunrise to walk James and I just love the view from right outside our apartment’s door: I usually walk James around the grounds of Abbaye Saint-Victor and we look out over Fort Saint-Nicolas and the Mediterranean Sea. And before bed,…

James and His New Frisbee in Sun Valley

Posted on September 25, 2019September 13, 2019 by Sandra

While we were in Ketchum, Idaho, we found a cute dog shop called Thunderpaws. They had so many toys and of course dog food and treats. They also had dog boots! And then we spotted this giant frisbee from Ruffwear. It is a floating foam disc and it is HUGE! And the best part: James…

James the Poodle: Three Weeks Old

Posted on September 10, 2019August 30, 2019 by Sandra

I am going through old photos and I found these photos of James when he was three weeks old back in May 2010. We don’t know for sure which puppy is James but we have a pretty good guess in some of the photos. Which puppy do you think is James?

Instagram Poodle Friends

Posted on July 16, 2019July 16, 2019 by Sandra

When James got sick a few months ago, the support we received online from other Poodle owners and friends was priceless. We even got a card in the mail from a Poodle friend! Thank you Shauna and John for the sweet card. Hugs to you both and Poodle hugs to Oliver, Finch and Gunner!

James and his Frisbee

Posted on June 25, 2019June 21, 2019 by Sandra

James used to be a fetch Poodle. He still LOVES fetch, but at 9 years old, he isn’t running quite as far and as fast as he used to. Last summer, we bought him this frisbee when we were in Breckenridge, Colorado. He doesn’t chase the frisbee like a Border Collie. Instead, Chris and I…

Night Sky Photos

Posted on June 5, 2019June 5, 2019 by Sandra

We decided to get up in the middle of the night and take some night sky photos. I didn’t bring my big cameras – just my little Canon G7x. Chris brought his 360° camera and he also did some time lapse videos of the sun rising. He might show those off later here on the…

Poodle Photo on the Window in Gouda

Posted on March 28, 2019March 27, 2019 by Sandra

We walked past a veterinarian office in Gouda and noticed a big Poodle decal on the window. We wanted to get a photo of James by the Poodle decal! We later found out from someone on the street that this Poodle belonged to the veterinarian and that Poodle has since passed away. But they have…
