Knock Out Dog Fighting

Just a few minutes ago I found this organization called Knock Out Dog Fighting. This issue hits home with me, as many of you probably know, I have a "Pitbull". What I like most about this organization is not only are they working to end dog fighting, but they're also working to educate people about these dogs. There are too many people out there that would rather have the breed banned in an attempt to end dog fighting and that's clearly not the answer. Check out their website www.knockoutdogfighting.org and watch a few of the videos, they've got an impressive list of MMA fighters backing them up.

He is to fast for my camera.









A tired dog is a happy dog.

Dog Pull Skateboarding

When you have a dog that is really strong and has a lot of energy you have to come up with ways of tiring it out so that they don't start destroying things every chance they get. My dog Cash is exactly that type of dog. The best methods of tiring him out so far have been: chasing a laser pointer (every dog owner should have a laser pointer), using a horse whip with a ball on the end (also known as a "flirt pole") and getting him together with another dog. While those are all excellent activities, they don't allow any real companionship between dog and owner. My good friend Evan recently built up a skateboard with some risers and big soft wheels for his dog to pull him around on and has been enjoying his dog pulling him around for the last couple weeks. I had Cash pull me before on my skateboard, but the speed he can run and my small hard wheels don't mix. This weekend I decided to go out and get a wider deck, some risers and some softer wheels and set up a deck specifically to have Cash pull me around, combining excellent exercise for him and my love of skateboarding.

Here we go.

I almost lost it on the speed wobbles.

Happy dog.

Tired dog.

Summer....finally!

Since we live in Canada, we aren't lucky enough to have warm weather all year long...we get a few warm months a year, and thats all, the rest are freezing cold, at least in Saskatchewan they are. So we gotta take advantage of the warmth when we can.

Cash loves the weather too!

He loves his rope!

...nap time

I love Summer!

Flu Sick Sucks

This whole weekend as been a complete waste of life for me, having the flu makes you not want to do a single thing. So all I have done all weekend is sit on the couch and play video games and feel like shit. 

I went to my computer for about an hour trying to draw (which doesnt work well when youre sick) and I left my bedroom door open...only to go back and find Cash sleeping in my bed.

He really does think he is a human sometimes.

I hope this flu shit doesnt last very long, I'm tired of feeling like this.

A Winters Tale

After a week of around -40 degree weather we were finally having some nice temperatures here, which made me happy because I hate winter and snow, and I want it so be summer so I can go skateboarding! I got my hopes up of maybe being able to skateboard soon...then it goes and snows all night and most of the morning! Dammit! I am tired of this shit.

A look at the snow from our porch.

The backyard.

Someone else who can't wait for the snow to melt.

It might be awhile before my Derek can use his new bike.

I'm gonna go hit the couch because I feel like crap!
