If you read my last column, you know that our family recently dealt with a loss. Our beloved dog, Daisy, passed away. The entire household has been depressed. But my stepdad and Riley the Wonder Dog have been hit hardest. While my husband and I had to go to work, they didn’t, and they spent [...]

Regular readers of this column are familiar with our dogs who, until Riley the Wonder Dog, preferred to go by pseudonyms to protect their privacy. Snoopy was actually named Scooby, Steve was really Rascal, and our sweet girl Rose was really named Daisy. Four years ago, Scooby passed. Rascal followed a little over two [...]

As I write this, it’s nearing the end of February, and while I long for spring, there’s something else I could really use right now. A big, honking snowstorm.

I didn’t think this Riley dog was so bad. In fact, for the first week, I thought I’d gotten me a sweet gig—easy work, and I pay back my “so-called” debt to Elfsociety. But now this mutt is scaring the *^&% out of me. First, he just was knocking over some trash cans. Problem is [...]

For the rest of the holiday season, I (Wojo) won’t be writing about what Riley is doing. This is because a very special guest has been sent all the way from the North Pole by none other than the jolly guy himself, Santa Claus. Here’s the first note from Elf Joey: Wojo told me to [...]

I began my last column talking about our dog, Riley and how he’s cute. He is cute. Very, very cute… For the most part, having him sleep in our bed with my husband and me is not bad. Because, well, we’re asleep.

With the end of this winter being so mild, I began to open one of the windows in my home office to let in some cool air. One day, Riley noticed that the window was open and that if he jumped up and put his front paws on the windowsill, he could see outside.

Like every other dog I’ve ever had or met, Riley loves treats. But just as much as he loves treats, Riley loves something else: ice cubes. You might think that a treat, which is made with chicken or beef or veggies of some sort would be much more appealing, especially to a puppy. But no. [...]

Our puppy, Riley, is really, really cute And it’s his cuteness that, some days—or in this case, nights—is the only thing that keeps him alive. Truth be told, I wouldn’t hurt the little guy, ever. But I would seriously think about throwing him out of our bedroom.
