World According to Duff
Naps Are Underrated
Duff again. As I nap off and on throughout the day, I revel in the ease of Slumber Land. To me, it’s one of the best things I can do for myself. This activity eases the problems of the day (like when I Ran Away from Mom when we were heading into work) and makes…
Read MoreI Exercise Patience
Duff again. Have you ever noticed when you go to town with Some People, they attract others to chat with? I sure have. My mom seems to meet people non-stop when we are out and about. These visits are spirited and lively, punctuated by laughter (and Serious Stuff at times). The ones involved have a…

I particularly favor the restaurant, What’s Cooking, because delectable and enticing scents drift out for my sniffing pleasure. Talk about unstuck living! One…
Read MoreDoggy Day Camp
Hello! It’s Duff. I recently returned from Doggy Day Camp at my favorite boarding facility. It’s a ranch (can you imagine?) with wide open spaces and many other Dogs to play with. I stay in the Small Dog area, for that’s where I belong. The owner tells mom that my favorite activity is to check…
