A week ago, a human showed up. He looked and smelled like the dog walker I’d had as a puppy. Plus, my humans seemed to know him, so he probably was. He talked with my humans about me, which seriously made me uncomfortable. But he gave me beef-liver treats before he left, so not all …

Where Are The Humans?
About a week ago, I noticed my humans were putting things in suitcases, and talking about someplace with the same name as my snail sister, Smoky. Smoky Mountain, I think it was called? I didn’t know Smoky had a mountain! Then, one day, Nana arrived. This seemed normal, but my humans were showing her how …
Squirrel Watch
In my yard, squirrels often show up. Usually they head for the neighbor’s yard as soon as they see me. Sometimes they get confused and run up our tree instead. One time a squirrel got mad because I’d chased him into a tree. He really made a racket! Of course, then there’s Cheeky. Cheeky always …
A Fun New Treat
This morning, my humans were playing around with some foods I like to eat. They mashed up a hardboiled egg, then pushed it onto a green, bumpy tray. Then they pushed a little shredded cheese onto a different section, then poured some only-apples applesauce on the remaining section. They stuck it in the freezer, and …
Introduction to the Dog-Blog
As I said, I’m Raini! I have a lot to share! I’ll start with the basics. I have a human mom, a human dad, a human sister named Isabella, and a snail sister named Smoky. My two sisters will both have their own posts, too. But this blog is mostly about me, of course. *Smiles …
My Favorite Foods
(By Raini) When I was a puppy, my favorite foods were scrambled eggs, and Chobani plain yogurt mixed with canned pumpkin. (The yogurt was actually bad for my stomach.) I also liked this dry food mixed with wet that was chicken and brown rice flavored. Of course, I also liked boiled chicken! Then my humans …
A Word About Shepherds
(By Raini) German shepherds may look mean sometimes, (when we’re protecting our humans, NOT when we are being oversized puppies) but inside we are fun and kind and smart and fun and kind and smart and fun and kind and smart and… okay I need to stop now. But you get the point.
My Swimmings (is that a word?)
(By Raini) I have always been a big water dog. I love taking showers, though now I don’t like them as much, because I had to take them so much to wash off the allergens. I also used to climb into Isabella’s bathtub–but now I’m too big for that! I love to play with the …
Sunny, Bright, Breezy Day!
(By Raini) The sun is shining. A gentle breeze blows. (whooshhhh…oops…got caught up in the moment…now I’ve embarrassed myself) Mom leaves… ahhh… nice… Wait…. MOM LEAVES!? Okay…okay…calm down Raini… Isabella sits in the strange hanging seat she has, and swings. Just as I wonder where Mom is, the gate opens, and Mom is back! Phew! …
First Day HOME!!!!!!!
June 16, 2019 I lived at a breeder, where there were more shepherds, including my mom and dad, and lots of toys! My favorites were this rubber key ring that felt so good on my little puppy teeth, and this old half of…something. Nobody knew what it was, even the breeder herself, but everyone loved …
