Rest: A Law of Health
Yes, of course it means sleeping well at night. Yes, it means waking feeling rested. Guess what else it means? Not eating as in fasting. Yes, for us and our dogs. Rest is one of the 8 laws of health. Yes, laws in nature aren’t optional and in fact are very much for our good as you’ll learn. I’m going to focus on OUR health more in this post but first I want to mention once again the needs of our canine carnivores. In the wild, carnivores have no choice but to fast because there is no guarantee for them there will be prey for...
read moreHow to Catch a Roadrunner
Daily visitor This is one of our FOUR daily Roadrunner visitors. My husband has named them . This one’s name is…wait for it…ROAD. LOL, very creative to say the least. They come daily for their food handouts. They’re predator carnivore birds so we feed them raw meat. Like our dogs (who get prey model raw food – meat/bones/organs), we accommodate the nature of the animals we feed around here. That’s how you catch a roadrunner – FEED them REAL food! Of course we don’t really try to catch them, we...
read moreSunbathing Dog
Check out my new sunbathing partner. When Ezra first got here (September 26, 2019 – almost a year ago now) he wasn’t at all fond of sunbathing in our hot, dry heat. He came from the mountains of TN with humid heat and it was warmer there in the mornings than here. Ezra is now officially a sunbathing dog. Every day that he can (just like me) he is out sunbathing, except he goes out multiple times per day just as my boy King does. Ezra sunbathing next to me The desert can get cold at night/early morning in the fall and spring. It does get...
read moreDances with Dogs
When we got Ezra, our Carolina Dog puppy, in September 2019 at nine weeks of age, little did we know how drastically he would change our lives…then the world changed too. I’ve danced around with all my previous dogs, but not Ezra. Let me back up a bit before I go into the dancing further… Ezra focused on the neighbor dogs I’ve learned some things about Ezra that I won’t share here as it wouldn’t change a thing anyway. The truth is, that even though he was naturally reared, his dam wasn’t until she was...
read moreThe Body Natural
Years ago I began in earnest looking into a more natural way of caring not just for my dogs, but also for myself and husband. I owe my commitment to do so AND share with others to my dog Shadrach, an amazing Neo Mastiff. While he passed away in 2011, naturally here at home, I’ve continued to share on the body natural. my body butter and air freshener When I first began, I took it one step at a time first focusing on the needs of Shadrach. Then I learned that whatever I used in the house to clean, do laundry with, etc., was important to...

I’m sharing a guest post by Keith J Myers – hope you learn a lot. Just know that I’m sharing this information for educational reasons. I am not advocating for any product nor do I necessarily agree with everything shared, I just want to provide you with viable solutions for your dog. ~Dr. Kim Bloomer “Do you have an aggressive pet at your place that won’t calm down no matter what you do? Or do you have a pet that has suddenly developed joint or muscle pain? You might have heard about CBD from your acquaintances but at...
read moreThe Pruning
Last year we also had so much rain in August and September that our yard was so lush and green. Then Ezra came in like a Velociraptor pruning the entire lower natural yard, as well as forcing us to do some major pruning in our upper yard, adding fence borders everywhere so he couldn’t destroy this more cultured (if you can call it that now lol) yard too! At least it was cultured and pretty BEFORE Ezra, EEK! The thing is, we haven’t had a puppy since King came to us at 13 months of age almost eight years ago! He...
read moreErza’s First Birthday
He thought he was the boss of me from day one 😂 On July 23rd, Ezra turned a year old. He has been with us now for just over 10 months. 🐕 It’s been hard for us in oh so many ways. He’s super intelligent, high energy and very pushy 😆. He seemed to know that on his birthday that was a special day for him as he sat with me quietly while I did my Bible study – which he never does as he’s usually too intent on playing with King or getting into something lol. 🐕 I’ve written blog posts and done...
read moreTripping the DARK Fantastic
Do you remember that song from the 70s, Trip a Little Light Fantastic? If not I’ll share it with you here now. So the title of this blog post is really a play on words because we’ve been invited to trip a LOT of dark fantastic in the last several months. First a PLANdemic, then riots, etc., etc. And yet for years (since 2005 when I actually tripped into learning all of this – well God pushed me a bit…okay a lot otherwise I may not have) I’ve been teaching this was coming. Not in a scary way, just in a way that...
read moreThe Doodle Bug
This is just a short post to share my sweet Bubby boy King. He gets left out too often now because of the puppy boy Ezra. So, I’m sharing him today. He’s now 8 1/2 years old. We’ve had him since he was 13 months old. His best friend in the world is my husband Donnie. King is an American Bully by breed, however, anything but a bully as in the human kind. He’s the kindest, funniest, most handsome and smart boy. This boy is the self-designated therapy dog I never knew I needed. He’s also such a huggable boy now – he wasn’t always...
