I Like To Snuggle

Patriots fever is in full swing as you can expect. It will be wall to wall Patriots talk here in Massachusetts until Feb. 1. Which is good with me but a lot of goofy stuff happens because there are non-stop interviews, analysis and opinions. And one of the funnier interviews aired yesterday with Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. Asked about his softer side Gronkowski replied: “I like to snuggle.” Which was kind of funny because if asked that question I wondered how I would answer. I think I would have said something like: “I help shelter dogs,” or maybe “I… Read the rest

We’re Going To Need A Bigger Boat

Saw something last night that I’ve never seen before. I’ve seen a lot of dogs do a lot of different behaviors – stuff that would scare you, disgust you, make you laugh and impress you. But last night was different. Last night I saw a yellow lab bite and chew on a metal folding chair. It was funny and scary at the same time. The only thing I could think of was the movie Jaws and quickly told the class that….. …..”we are going to need a bigger boat!” I then talked to the owner and realized that we had… Read the rest

8 Words That Can Help With ANY Problem

So 2015 has had a little bit of a rough start for your old friend. I generally don’t like sharing depressing news and like leaving you with a smile after you read these daily dog training emails. Here’s what happened: Last week, everyone in the house got sick. We then had a pipe freeze and burst which was then followed by a car accident. My van was backed into and it pretty much smashed the driver’s side door in completely. But….. ……I am not complaining. I am not even really that upset by any of it. Problems happen. I don’t… Read the rest

Why Did I Ever Do This?

What a weekend! Action, adventure, intrigue, name calling, fighting, a battle of brains and brawn. In the end, our hero’s were victorious. The New England Patriots totally outfoxed the Ravens and I am not gloating because for most of the game, I was wondering why I ever became a fan. There is so much emotion wrapped up in a game that will have zero outcome on my life. The Patriots winning or losing the Superbowl will not improve relations between my wife and me. It will not make me a better father. It will not increase or decrease my income,… Read the rest

We Need More Beer!

History lesson: The Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock because: They came to America seeking religious freedom. The Mayflower sprung a leak and they needed to repair. They needed more beer. Everyone that choose c. as the correct answer can go to the front of the room and collect your gold star because you are correct. Funny how a religious group landed on Plymouth Rock because they needed to do what we call here in Massachusetts, a “Packy Run” (which is short for package store, which is what liquor stores are called in this state). I know it’s all confusing but… Read the rest

Bloody Warrior Provides Puppy Training Tips

There was once a warrior on the verge of conquering the world. He had an army of half a million men that made Europe tremble. This warrior had Rome in his sights and was threatening to go after it. Pillage and destruction followed this man wherever he went and he was ruthless. Then the night before he was to get married he died. Not in a sword fight, not at the end of a spear or arrow. He died from a nosebleed in his sleep. Attila the Hun suffered from chronic nosebleeds. He got drunk, passed out and choked on… Read the rest

This Con Man Can Help You Have A Better 2015

The sign on the pool hall wall said: “$200 to Any Man Who Jumps Over My New Pool Table.” $200 in 1931 was a lot of cash and Alvin was determined to get it. A poor kid born in the Ozarks he would go on to cheat Al Capone for $500, cross paths with Harry Houdini, Babe Ruth, Minnesota Fats and even have Damon Runyon write a character based on him in his book, “Guys And Dolls.” Alvin looked at the pool table and immediately went across the street to a cheap hotel. He grabbed a mattress out of a… Read the rest

Can One Word Lead To The Death Of Hundred Thousand People?

July 1945. A world weary of war was waiting to hear what Japanese Premier,Kantaro Suzuki, was going to do about the Potsdam Declaration. Would he agree to the terms that called for the surrender of the Japanese Armed Forces? Trying to be careful with his choice of words, he stated that his cabinet was adopting a position of mokusatzu. And that one word, “mokusatzu,” sealed the fate of thousands of Japanese citizens. That one word lead to the death of tens of thousands of Japanese with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. You see, the word mokusatzu has two meanings.… Read the rest

How To Deal With A Dog That Growls Around Bones

So yesterday I was patiently waiting for the Patriots game to start. When out of the blue, a Facebook message pops up on my phone. It’s from my neighbor and she’s having a problem with her dog. I can’t imagine what it’s like living next to me and having a dog problem. I think it must be like living next to Robert De Niro and wanting some acting tips. Anyway, I have the greatest neighbors on the planet so I suited up and walked across the street. I walked in the house and they told me how their very nice… Read the rest
