Question of the day – Why would Typhoon go with Hu-Dad on a big Saturday adventure while every other pup stayed home at Chez Herd?
Standing on the scales
Today was Typhoon’s weigh in day to see if he is continuing to gain weight. He weighed 43.3 pounds, so a slight gain of 0.3 pounds over the last two weeks, but at least it was in a positive direction.
Riding in the pickup truck.
Normally, we would take our limousine – aka, the Jeep Wrangler – for trips to the vet, but Hu-Dad had to take the pickup truck to Asheville. Rather than take two trips, Typhoon got to ride in the pickup truck to the vet and to Asheville. He had the whole back seat to stretch out in – a luxury in a big family.
Besides, we rarely get to ride in the truck, so Typhoon felt really special in it.
Wait a minute – where is my lunch?
The humans also decided to eat lunch in Asheville, so Typhoon got to sit on the deck of the restaurant and chat with other diners.
Of course, when he got home, the Little Prince had to tell everyone about his adventure and how much fun it was.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend
June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.
A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.
Enjoy it your way

His books pay for our food!
Mom ‘n Ebby say: Typhoon, doesn’t it make you feel kind of “special” when you get to go somewhere with the hu-Dad, ALONE, just you, nobody else? (Herd-wise, that is!)
The herd could probably smell the vet and other scents on him, including those yummy kebobs. 😉 Made me hungry.
We (Randi & Chloe) take our Humans to different places too, it’s so much fun!!!
