Say hi to Benny, the newest member of my family. Auntie @drsarahgiles.bsky.social is besotted; Echo thinks that her little brother (10 months old) is coming along nicely, but needs to chill out a bit. She's right, as usual. #FosterFail

Benny the foster dog knows how to select a properly fitting life jacket. What's your excuse? #BoatingSafety

Triscuit the foster puppy has found his furever home and will be joining them tomorrow. Echo really gets the major of credit for teaching this little one the ways of the world and keeping him entertained. We will miss him terribly, but we are thrilled for him (and our sleep cycles...).

Foster puppy Triscuit haș a meet and greet with a potential new human mom and doggie brother. Echo and I are excited for him (and the prospect of sleep), but we're also pretty gutted!

My grad students (who are writing with me at my house) and I are using an adaptation of the Pomodoro Technique for writing. It is called the Pupodoro Technique. We let Triscuit (my foster puppy) out to pee every 30mins...

Echo and Triscuit the foster puppy are getting along very well. She is such a good girl and is doing a great job of helping me to rear this little baby shark.

Last night, we had to say goodbye to the very best boy, our beloved Bubba, who became very ill very quickly. @drsarahgiles.bsky.social flew in. We had snuggles, ice cream, and shared a final great day together, surrounded by love. Rest well, BubBub. We will miss you with every breath that we take.

It's Echo's 8th birthday! She is smart, opinionated, and sassy. She takes her duties in the neighbourhood Squirrel Defence League very seriously. She has mastered the "duck, roll, and cuddle" move on the couch at 9pm every night. I love this little girl with all my heart!

My instructor took this photo at our latest Rally Obedience class (Echo showing comfort around fences). I love this little girl so damn much.

Echo doesn't quite get the concept of "turn taking" in doggie physio.
