Owney: How I Celebrated Birthday No. 7 This Year

May 24, 2017 By Owney

The other day was my 7th birthday. I only know this because my mom, Wendi (the creator of this blog) told me. I'm like my dad, Bobby. I don't keep track of such things because Mom is always around to tell us how old we are. Sometimes she has to count down from the year we came to the house. (She always does this with Gracie and Buddy, two of my feline siblings. I think it is because they are so old -- 17 years old this year.) So, anyhow, Mom tells me it is my birthday but then I hear her tell … [Read more...]

Remembering My Cousin, Crazy Parker 

April 24, 2017 By Owney

If you read my mom's blog post about the Hard Hat Restaurant, you will know that one of my border collie cousins, Parker, had some health problems recently. Unfortunately, I found out that Parker lost his fight with the illness early Sunday morning. We are all sad to have to say goodbye to him, but he lived a great life. As a late comer into his life, I don't know everything about him, but here are a few things I do know: He loved to play fetch -- Parker lived in a house with a huge … [Read more...]

Mighty Owney: Here He Is, To Save The Day!

April 6, 2017 By Owney

I am by no means a super hero. I have no super powers like Underdog, but I do have canine intuition. I was called into action recently to save the day. OK, maybe "save the day" is a bit of a stretch. But if you were there and heard my dad, Bobby, talk about it, I did save the day. While maybe it had no impact on the economy or world peace, it impacted my family and my peace. Let me set the stage. My mom, Wendi, was signed up to go to a training in Columbus, Ohio, on Thursday, March 23. … [Read more...]

Owney Travelogue: Cincinnati and Beyond 

March 29, 2017 By Owney

When my dad, Bobby, told my mom, Wendi, that a guy named Richard Osterlind was doing a magic lecture in Cincinnati on Saturday, March 25, 2017, I was sure that meant I would be visiting my family in Lodi. That is usually what happens when they go away on a trip. I appreciate their concern for me and wanting to make sure I am not stuck in the house the whole day, but sometimes I wish I could go with them. Well I don't know if Dad can really read minds or if they couldn't find someone to watch me, … [Read more...]

Owney Didn’t Want His Trip to Freelander Park to End

March 10, 2017 By Owney

When my parents, Bobby and Wendi Warren, celebrated their anniversary, they let me go to one of my favorite vacation spots, Grandpa and Grandma's house. (You might know them better as Bud and Dolores Breese.) While I love staying there, I still miss Mom and Dad a lot. I think they miss me too, because we seem to do something special after they pick me up. (If it isn't dark and they're not too tired.) So on Sunday, March 5,they decided to take me to a place I have never been. They called … [Read more...]
