Puppy Love

My oldest dog Titan

I'm obsessed with dogs! I always have been. I love the creatures, and I can never get enough of them. I remember writing letters as a young child to my Aunt MaryLou always inquiring about her dog and giving her detailed accounts of my dog. She must have thought I was a crazy child. My obsession started early and only grew stronger.

If you have a dog and I see it, chances are I am going to ignore you at some point. I will be on the floor with your dog or having a conversation with your dog. I am not a physically affectionate person, but when it comes to dogs I am all over them. I'm still trying to figure out how to become a professional dog petter.

Dogs are easier than people. They are happier, less judging, and for the most part friendlier. I have lived on my street for a little over a year now. I know the first name of one adult on my street, but I know Barkeley, Cuddles, Brownie, Oliver, Izzy, Cooper, and Precious. Yeah...

My furry Lakeland friends

When I go visit my friends in Lakeland (about 45 minutes from my home), I am just as excited to visit the furry friends as I am the human ones. As a matter of fact, I get extremely disappointed when I drive there and don't get to see the Wisneski dogs.

I got my first puppy when I was about 11. I finally convinced my parents that I would take care of one. Her name was Pepper, and she was an awesome mutt! She made me laugh about everyday, and when I came home from those miserable days in middle school, she was the one to make me feel better.

My youngest dog Phin

Now I have two dogs. Both rescued mutts. Titan (named after the Tennessee Titans) is 4 and he is our grumpy old man. He had a rough start in life, and isn't used to being affectionate. He likes his space, and get really upset when his space is invaded. Phin (named after the Miami Dolphins) is 7 months and is our crazy puppy. He is sweet and playful.

I could never have too many puppies. I plan to be the crazy old dog lady instead of the crazy cat lady. But until I get rid of some human children or inherit a farm, I'm just going to have to stick with my two. I don't think my husband would give me a choice on that anyway.
