The Saturday Pet Blogger Hop | Project 365

January 15, 2011 by kathi

My Project 365 is going pretty well so far. I haven’t improved much as a photographer yet, but we’re only two weeks into it. I haven’t missed a day yet, and I’ve been making an effort to use and learn more about my DSLR. Here are the pet-related photos from the past week:

Quick follow-up: Pet Blogger Challenge

January 13, 2011 by kathi

I’m so glad I decided to participate in the Pet Blogger Challenge this past Monday. Amy Burkert at GoPetFriendly and Edie Jarolim at Will My Dog Hate Me? did a fantastic job of hosting the Challenge, and I have really enjoyed reading everyone’s answers to the interview questions.

I am way behind those of you who have already taken the time to read through all 100+ blog posts, and really, really, way, way behind those of you who have even written summaries! I bow down to you all. I do plan to stop by the blogs of all Challengers, so if you get a comment on your Challenge post out of the blue next week or even later… it’s just the laptop-eating Rottweilers running late. As usual.

Thanks to everyone who has visited and commented here! It is wonderful to hear from you all. Whether your approach and philosophies are similar to mine or a world apart, I have something to learn from every one of you. I hope you got something from me, too. Or at least liked my cute puppy picture header graphic!

Project 365 | The Saturday Pet Blogger Hop

January 8, 2011 by kathi

I mentioned earlier this week that I’m doing a Project 365 (photo-a-day) this year. Since not all of the photos will be about Rottweilers, computers, or even world domination, I’ve started a separate photoblog as well as a Flickr set for the project.

So far, I’ve been using my familiar point-and-shoot Nikon S51 and the camera on my BlackBerry Curve 8330 for the daily shots. But one of my goals for Project 365 is to learn to use my Canon Rebel XS DSLR to best advantage, so that camera will be added to the rotation starting next week.

I cross-posted my first Rottweiler-related photo earlier in the week. Here are the other pet-related project photos:

Now that we’re concentrating on pet-related content again, it’s time to rejoin the wonderful Saturday Pet Blogger Hop! As always, this blog hop is hosted by Life With Dogs, Two Little Cavaliers, and Confessions of the Plume.

Pet blogger, or … what?

November 6, 2010 by kathi

We’ve been very light on pet-related content lately, so I haven’t added us to the Saturday Pet Blogger Blog Hop this week (it’s Week 27, and the link will take you to Life With Dogs and the links list).

The Rottweilers are annoyed, because they think everything should be about them. And they’re almost right. We’ve been having an identity crisis here, and I need to get back to our true purpose: talking about Rottweilers and computers, either separately or together.

One thing I’ve learned about myself is that I don’t write much, or well, about the simple joys of living with Rottweilers (or the complex headaches, either). And make no mistake, these dogs are truly family members first and foremost. But most of what I write is about our training, competition, and health matters. Right now, since we’re not actively training and competing, and everyone is healthy, I feel like I have nothing much to say. Even when we are training and trialing, it seems as though there is always someone out there saying it better (not to mention doing it better).

I’m going to try to get back on track with more pet and computer content soon. I’m sure I’ll get over this identity crisis. Just not today.
