Complaining Or Telling The Truth?

Complaining Or Telling The Truth? “Life can change quickly. So make the changes you need to today. Get it out. Complain. Tell the truth.”

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Oh, I’ve heard my share of complaining over the years. My persons are real good at it. Because a lot goes wrong to complain about. For sure. Even Fruitycake complains. He is famous in our car for sighing the sighs of all sighs. So I guess you could say that fruitycake knows how to complain. But I have a secret. Complaining is telling the truth in my opinion. You…

Brickle’s Secret Garden

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Have you ever tried to grow something? Girl Person loves to plant things. She used to have a garden with Pappy and they grew sweet potatoes and broccoli and all kinds of things! Fruitycake would have loved it. Maybe you’ve tried to grow something too. Like a better way of life. Or motivation to be healthy. Maybe you’ve tried to grow courage to make a big or even a…

That Is His Bridge

That Is His Bridge “You can be sad and still be strong. And in fact, sometimes it takes strength to feel the sad.”

This is Fruitycake The Raccoon. Just a reminder that I’m not a real raccoon. I just like to pretend I am one. Yesterday, we went to a place where the persons, Brickle and Digby used to go. It was a trail with a little waterfall and a little bridge. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 2 Traveling Dogs (@2travelingdogs) It was very shady and pretty. Girl Person said that she didn’t…

Where The Leaves Are

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Have you ever wanted to hide from the world? Have you ever just wanted to be by yourself? I get like that. A lot. As much as I love my family, I also love the times that I have the choice to just be in my own company for a little while. Choices are very important to a dog. We don’t get to make many of our own. Leashes. Commands. Being told when to get up. When to…

Within The Hour

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. My whole life, I’ve heard “we are almost there.” Yeah. I’ve taken a lot of long road trips. And yesterday, was one of those trips. We drove and we drove. And we drove some some. We ran over a shredded tire on the highway. We got caught in many traffic jams. And not the good jam. I am a seasoned traveler, that’s for sure. I’ve seen it all and all’s cousin. But even…

Island Time

Island Time “It’s true that we can all be serious. Especially me. There is always a time for that. But there is more time for island time. We all need it.””

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. We’ve had such a good few weeks. We’ve had some great beach time. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 2 Traveling Dogs (@2travelingdogs) Oh, I love the beach. I really do. To put my paws in the sand and simply stare at the waves is my favorite thing to do. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 2 Traveling Dogs (@2travelingdogs) And I’ve found…

No Dog Is An Island

This is Fruitycake The Raccoon. Just a reminder that I’m not a real raccoon. I just have a personality like one. Yesterday was our last day in this Florida place for awhile. Today, we start heading north. And we will be staying the weekend at a place called Tybee Island, Georgia place. Brickle recommended we go there on our way to our friends’ house. Do you remember when Brickle and Fruitycake…

Count Your Age By Friends, Not Years

Count Your Age By Friends, Not Years “We all get older. We can’t deny that. But what do we count as precious in those years? What do we learn? Are we kind to others? Are we the best we can be? If not, we all still have time…until we don’t.”

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. I’ve had a little more time to reflect lately on many things. Ones that I miss. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 2 Traveling Dogs (@2travelingdogs) I think about all the places I’ve been. It’s hard to describe how I feel about my life so far. I don’t think that I can describe it. And maybe, that’s the sign of a good life. My persons say that they…

Slither On Out Of Here

Slither On Out Of Here “The every day wonderful parts of life may go right over our heads. Don’t let that happen to you.”

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. They say not to wake a sleeping dog. Or something like that. And it’s true. Why would you want to wake up a dog from a restful dream parade in their mind? Dreams are the best. We can be chasing something. Or we can be with ones we miss. We can be eating a steak and peanut butter. Ok. Maybe that’s just me. I especially was having some great sleep in this Florida…

You Can’t Climb Without Taking A Break

This is Fruitycake The Raccoon. Just a reminder that I’m not a real raccoon. I just look like a very cute one. Yesterday, we decided to take a little trip to something called a lighthouse. I have heard of these things. But I never imagined that it would be so tall! I never imagined all the people who would want to see it and climb all of those stairs. It’s just one of those things that take…

The Sunshiney Side Up

The Sunshiney Side Up “I know that it’s not always easy to see the sunshiney. Especially when problems that we encounter seem little on the outside. But to us, they are big.”

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. You have two choices…every second of the day. To look on the bright side of life. Or to not. It’s really as simple as that. I know I haven’t been feeling good. But I also have been feeling good. Every day is different. And when I have learned to accept that, I look on the sunshiney side of things. That I will feel good again. You may wonder how I’m so sure of…

Age Is A Work Of Art

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Age isn’t just a number, no matter what others tell you. There’s a reason we keep track of the numbers. At the end of April, I will be 15 in human years. Who knows how old in dog years. Us dogs have our own system. To us, age isn’t something to be ashamed of. We can count. But we count our blessings. Age isn’t something to to fight against. Age to us is a work of…

The Unexpected

The Unexpected “Unexpected failures in life may hurt. They may stun us for a bit.”

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Sometimes thing happen in life that are unexpected. That’s part of life. But some things are more unexpected than others. For sure. So when we were taking a walk in that Miami, Florida place yesterday, and someone seemingly fell out of the sky, well, it took us by surprise. And it certainly took that lizard by surprise. Now, I expect to see lizards in this Florida…

Gumbo and Limbo

This is Fruitycake The Raccoon. Just a reminder that I’m not a real raccoon. I just play one on the internet. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 2 Traveling Dogs (@2travelingdogs) What a few days. We have done more driving than anyone I know. And yet, tomorrow, we drive again. To where? Don’t know. But I know we are done in this Miami place. Once again, the persons were hit with…

The Road Chosen

The Road Chosen “My senior dog road? Many. Many would have given up on me by now too.”

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. I don’t know how many roads that I have traveled on. Just the last few days, it’s been a lot. Can you imagine the roads I’ve traveled on my whole life? None of these roads have been easy. In fact, I remember when persons told us not to travel at all. I remember when persons told me I was too. Even ten years ago. I also know that the road we are on now…the road we…

Now What?

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. You know what? I like snacks. Lots of snacks. I think I may actually like snacks more than I like dinner. Or lunch. Or breakfast. Snacks are life. Digby definitely knew this. I miss him eating all of my snacks. So yesterday, when the persons said we had to head back to that Miami, Florida place, I didn’t ask many questions. I’m used to plans changing. I mean,…

The Long Nights

This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Persons say that time flies. And they want it to slow down. But then, they go to sleep. That’s wasting time in my opinion. So when I have my all nighters, I have to wonder what the big deal is. I mean, shouldn’t we want to be with the ones we love as much as possible? I know that I am so handsome though that sometimes you can’t look at me directly for too long.…
