Lola celebrated her 5th birthday this week! I made her a delicious puppy peanut butter cookie… and then I lit it on fire. She almost knocked me over trying to figure out why her cookie wasn’t being fed to her. Every year I put a candle, every year Lola tries to eat it. Needless to…

I wrote this post years ago and realized that I am almost always the loser of this game. Lola plays it so well in our new house that I sometimes panic when I can’t find her. I recently taught Lola a new game to play. Since she has spent the past three years shadowing me, I…

FADE IN: EXT. HOME SWEET HOME- NIGHT (2016) A cold, late spring night. LOLA, an adorably chubby English Bulldog who enjoys a good caper, is sitting at the back door of the home. MOMMYBEAST, the put upon owner of Lola who indulges every whim the baby Bulldog desires (unless it will lead to disfigurement or…

This morning Lola and I made the command decision to clean the house. We couldn’t find a maid that we liked and could afford so we’re doing all the heavy lifting ourselves. Stupid dreams of a maid, it really made us complacent this week. So there I am, moving all of our furniture, when I…

Lola has been tad bit annoyed with me lately. She doesn’t know where the Daddybeast went and she hates to sleep without snuggles. Snuggling with me is out of the question, I’m a flipper and kicker. Anyone near me is probably going to lose an eye. Last night, our argument over which one of us is…

You know that moment when a dog looks at you with their innocent face? They just glow with puppy delight as they watch your every move?  They even go so far as to shake their little nubby as they watch you come into a room? And you know that somewhere there is a steaming, stinking…

There comes a time in every life where you have to admit defeat. Lola is admitting her defeat… At the hands of a chunk of Gouda. ………………………………… This past weekend, I was enjoying a delicious bacon cheeseburger when I happened to glance at Lola. She had a river of drool coming out the side of…

Do you know what happens when a chubby, cheese-loving, English Bulldog meets a wild rabbit in the backyard? Well, I do. And man, that was a close call! Lola and I thought we were in the clear when we moved to the new house and left the psychotic, strong-armed squirrel in our old backyard. We…

This morning I ran across a Lola Moment (TM pending) that made me chuckle. And then I remembered what a pain in the ass that moment was. For the love of god, will you take the toy already?!?! Lola has to check all her new toys for quality control. In the case of this particular toy,…
