A Book Excerpt

My publisher is now sharing a book excerpt from "The Dog Lived (and So Will I)"--you can find it over on our new blog site: www.teresarhyne.com/blog    See you there!

What Do Vegans Feed Their Dogs?

This and other fascinating philosophical issues (and by that I mean dogs, wine, books, and fighting that bitch cancer) still being blogged about. It's just that we're over HERE now.  Join us!

Beaglefest!

Seamus and I went to Beaglefest. Read more about it over at the new blog location: www.teresarhyne.com/blog  See you there!

Beagles, Unicorns and Butterflies

Just a little reminder that all of those things (well, if unicorn = breast cancer) are still being discussed, it's just that now we're over at:  www.teresarhyne.com

(And just for the record...I kind of miss Blogger. Word Press is wildly difficult for me to learn!)

Breast Cancer, Canine Cancer, Books, Dogs & Wine

I'm talking about it all. But I'm now talking about it over here: www.teresarhyne.com
Please follow me over there and let me know what you think of the new site.

Change of Address

Well, we've done it.
The Dog Lived (and So Will I) has moved. The blog is now over on Wordpress. You can find us here:
teresarhyne.com/blog  and when you get there, you'll see we have a whole, big website to. (Cue "He's Famous and He Knows It" reprisal!) I hope you'll head over to the new site and follow us there. Or like us. Or share us. Or Tweet us....or whatever the heck is the new thing to do to us. This new site has been a long exhausting process, but I hope you'll find it's worth it. I also hope I can now get back to the regular program of you know, actual blogging. See you over at TeresaRhyne.com!

The Book Tour Begins

Well, sort of.
I'm over here at the Wrote by Rote blog talking about...my book.

As for this blog...well, I've been busy getting a website set up and that also means I need to switch over to a new blog (WordPress). More news on that soon. But in the meantime, check out Wrote by Rote  and tell me what you think.

Seamus Oncology Update

I took Seamus to the eye specialist for a check up on Friday. Sadly, it looks like the tumor on his eye is growing; the surgery did not get it all. The tumor is not growing rapidly and Seamus is not in any pain or even discomfort, so at this point we are on a "wait and see" basis. Eventually, the choice will be to try the laser surgery again (but it is doubtful it will help) or have the eye removed. The cancer is not life threatening, but needless to same I'm not thrilled about either of the options. Right now, he gets eye drops three to four times a day (and he's such a good patient about receiving these). And of course he's getting lots and lots of love (as always).  As long as he's not in any pain or discomfort, we don't need to make any decisions. As as always, I'm going to research eye melanomas in dogs and learn what I can. The vet assures me dogs adjust very quickly and just fine to losing one eye. My dad had a dog once that lost an eye and she certainly seemed fine. It just worries me because of course, they can't tell us what they're feeling, so how do we ever know?

In case I haven't mentioned this lately, I hate cancer.

P.S. if you missed my original post about Seamus's diagnosis, it's here: eye melanoma

He's Famous and He Knows it

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Book Trailer Number 2, for the more serious, tender-hearted side of things (note Seamus's good behavior throughout this entire video. If that's not Oscar worthy, I don't know what is!).

Seamus Goes to the Movies

The Dog Lived (and So Will I) memoir was "debuted" at the Sourcebooks sales conference today, where they also saw:

and there was a second video...and the cake pops...and some super cool bookmarks...but we'll pace ourselves a bit.

So what do you think? Are you ready to read the book??!!
Seamus thanks you (and asks that you send him toast...he always asks that).
