Oh so much nicer.

As you can probably tell, Dez has calmed down a bit since my last post. He’s been so good lately that we’ve even been letting him sleep on his bed at night! We’re up to three nights running with no incidents. Huge progress doesn’t even begin to describe it. He even got to meet his [...]
Very Naughty

I was going to write a post about how good Dez has been lately. I was going to talk about how much better he’s been since he got over his surgery. Then he turned back into “Dez: the canine typhoon.” Granted, we have been warned that it can take up to 6 weeks after a [...]
Naughty

We knew when we adopted Dez that things would be hard for a while. We knew he liked to chew on things and that his last family wasn’t sure whether he was completely house trained. We knew that he had a lot of energy and a talent for getting himself in trouble. We knew he [...]
Ewan’s first day at the barn
Posted in Family and Friends, tagged cow, vet on 5 September 2007 | 1 Comment »
Ewan had his first day at the UW cow barn today. He got to give injections, evaluate udders, and generally see what bovine vets do. By the time this elective is over, he’ll have spent 30 hours working with the herd. I’m just hoping he doesn’t get kicked.
Getting to know Dez

Dez has been with us for a week now, and is settling in well. He’s not quite like any dog I’ve ever known. So far we’ve learned: he likes to chew, a lot; he’s very vocal, and likes to talk back; he loves squirrels and rabbits; he knows many commands in spanish; he likes to [...]

I’d like to announce the arrival of Ewan’s new blog entitled: VetSchool: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Abomasum. You can find his witty commentary at http://dinovet.blogspot.com/ , or by clicking the link under Gator’s Favorite People to the left.
The other highly anticipated news is that Agadez will be arriving [...]
Agadez
Posted in Beasties, Family and Friends, tagged dez, dog on 7 August 2007 | 1 Comment »
This is Agadez, aka Dez, an Azawakh (Tuareg Hound) who is currently residing with some friends in Chicago. Unfortunately for his current family, but fortunately for us, they are having trouble spending enough time with both Agadez and their four year old daughter. This means that Dez will be moving in with us at the [...]
Moving In

I just wanted to say how fortunate Ewan and I feel that we have such amazing friends. Our last few trips to Bozeman have really brought home how truly blessed we are to have a great extended family. When we first arrived in Madison, we were pleasantly surprised to find a bunch of goodies stuffed [...]

Things are so crazy right now that I can’t even write a real post, but I’ll tide you all over with some pictures from Ewan’s graduation. This is Ewan amongst the other doctoral candidates. There are a couple more pictures on our photo site (the link is on the left), and I’ll post more once [...]
