Meet Francesca
I entered this world on December 13, 2004, in Pinewood, Minnesota. I’m a bit older and certainly far wiser than Sharkey. Like Sharkey, I’m also friendly and quite curious, but I’m more cautious about letting my curiosity get me into trouble. I must admit that we do have fun together. I just know when to stop. Martha describes me as being a bit obsequious, but that’s just my ability to pull the wool over her eyes. I’m just clever! I do have a high opinion about myself, and my fashion sense is magnifique! In fact, Je suis fabuleuse (I am fabulous.)

You know how I’m always saying how wonderful Sharkey and I are? Well, I guess others feel the same way because now there are stuffed dog toys being made in our image! And just in time for Christmas, they even came with little Santa hats! I found them before Sharkey did and I decided to …

I was getting a drink of water yesterday while that pesky Vivaldi was hanging around in the kitchen. He stared at me the whole time while I was drinking. After finishing, I pretended to be asleep and he thought I wasn’t paying attention to him. Low and behold, Vivaldi actually drank out of the same …

Remember last week when I blogged about the possibility of getting a new Friesian horse for the farm? Well, yesterday, Sharkey and I drove down to the stable to see if anything had come of that and here’s what we found!

It isn’t officially winter yet, but snow has started to fall and Sharkey and I were quite surprised yesterday morning to see it. I started thinking that the guys had better finish getting the outside decorated for the holidays before more snow starts to accumulate. I guess they were all thinking the same thing.

We, dogs, have been hearing Martha talking to Betsy about the possibility of getting another horse to take beloved Martyn’s place, may he forever rest in peace. We decided to help with the search, so we trotted (no pun intended) over to Cogi Farm where, we were told, there might be a Friesian for sale.

Perhaps you saw Martha’s television show last Friday, when Sharkey and I were part of a canine fashion show. It was all about winter wear for dogs. Dogs, just like people, need coats and sweaters to keep them warm during harsh winter weather. We’re sure happy that Martha dresses us so well. Anyway, here are …

Sharkey and I have been going around the farm, inspecting all that’s being done in preparation for a long and cold winter. I started thinking about all the creatures down at the stable and if they would have a sufficient supply of hay to get through the season. Here’s what we found.

Recently we were asked by PetSmart to work as models for a photo shoot to show off Martha’s wonderful fall dog fashions, in stores now. Normally we don’t even get out of our doggie beds for less than 10 biscuits, but since we’re such big fans of the collection, we agreed. And check out Martha’s …

If you love Japanese Maples, then you know that autumn is when those lovely trees put on an amazing display. You may recall just over a year ago when Sharkey and I blogged about how we filmed the planting of the grove. Well, I guess the planting was a big success because the trees seem …

Sharkey and I hadn’t been to see the canaries for a couple of days so we went to pay a visit to those mellifluous little creatures. When we got to their rather palatial cage, we were puzzled as to why they were all huddled at the top. On further inspection, we discovered exactly what was …
