Wow! My birthday was the end of September, but the celebrations continue! After our usual morning hike, mom drove us up to Anthem. I knew it wasn’t park day and wondered what we would be doing: breakfast! We arrived at 3434 W. Anthem Way, #146 at the Dog House Diner. How cool is that? […]
Think Like a Dog – A movie review by Kuma
Just the title of this movie (Think Like a Dog) makes me smile! This 2020 direct-to-cable release due to COVID-19 stars Josh Duhamel, Megan Fox and others. The most important character is Henry, the family’s dog. The story is about a 12-year-old boy named Oliver who is a whiz kid and invents a contraption that allows […]
Kuma watches Dr. Doolittle 2020
Mom bought me the DVD of Dr. Doolittle 2020 with Robert Downey, Jr. so I could watch it with her. If you haven’t seen it and love animals, I think you will enjoy it. This isn’t the Dr. Doolittle’s of years gone by, from what I am told. It isn’t a remake but a brand-new […]
The Call of the Wild movie review
You all know my mom helps me with my blogs, right? I mean let’s face it – my paws aren’t made for keyboards. She takes photo, drives me to great locations, and watches movies with and sometimes for me since I’m not allowed in movie theaters. Hmmm. There’s a great idea for someone: dog-friendly movie […]

Dog-friendly Crossover Vehicles
When my folks came to take me home that first day, we became a family, I was placed in a house on wheels. I had never been in such a thing that moved and turned this way and that way. Oh boy did I howl and cry until mom assured me it was okay. My […]
Following Atticus – Book Review by Kuma the dog
My mom just got done reading Following Atticus by Tom Ryan. This is an older book but is definitely worth the read. It is categorized as a memoir, but it is full of adventures big and small. It is warm, transparent, real, funny, and offers the reader wonderful reminders of the importance of relationships: human […]
The Secret Lives of Pets I & II – Movie Review
My mom was pretty excited when The Secret Lives of Pets #2 came out recently. Before I share my take on it, I better back up and give you a quick overview of #1. The Secret Lives of Pets #1 came out in 2016 and follows the quiet life of a terrier named Max until […]
A Dog’s Way Home – Movie Review
Most of the time, me and my mom watch movies together. Every once in a while, she heads to the big screen to see movies without me, but she always tells me about them…especially when they involve dogs. She and daddy went recently to see the new movie A Dog’s Way Home. She was […]
Kuma gives a shout out to his vet, Dr. Grossman
It’s time to give a shout out to my vet, Dr. Grossman at Sonoran Pet Clinic. I’m pretty picky on who I will allow to insert those thermometer sticks in my…errr how do I say it delicately? Well, I think you already know! Anyway, Dr. Grossman is a super nice human, gentle, and kind. His […]
