The Adventures of Gabby, the 'Fraidy-dog
As some may know already, a cute little Shitzhu-Lhasa Apso puppy joined my family about four months prior. At the time, she was 5 months old, and still very young. Now, she’s nearing 10 months of age, and she’s grown up quite a lot (physically and behaviourally).
Gabby’s a bit strange, even for a dog. But one characteristic stands out the most—she’s very fearful.

One of those animated clips that you just end up watching for a long, long time, because there’s always the possibility that something might change and if you don’t keep watching you’ll miss it.

The book series that shaped my childhood
I am currently tutoring a kid that doesn’t read books. Maybe it’s not even that he doesn’t want to (though it is true that he certainly doesn’t like to read books), but that he can’t. He says that something about the unbroken collection of words running from start to finish on a page just turns him off. He’s an international kid, so it makes sense he...
