Dogs usually don’t make plans, but when you have a blog, it helps to think about what you’ll write and share. In the month of September, I’ll be experimenting with posting Monday through Friday and I’d like to give you a preview of my doggy plans.

First up, and the plan I’m most excited about, is Sophie’s Choice. Sophie is a one-year-old Weimaraner who will be curating dog-related finds from sites like Etsy, every other week here on the Dog Blog. Her human, Linda, is the owner of à la mode (a line of modern products for humans and their homes) and creator/editor of alamodestuff blog. Because I’m so excited, Sophie’s first post will appear tomorrow. Woof!
A-Dog and I will be recording our favorite trails that we walk, hike and run in a weekly series called Tails on the Trail. We’ll explore all different kinds of trails that are dog-friendly, providing details on distance, terrain and location. We’re even going to try a little video experiment with this one, so it should be pretty interesting. I’m hoping to explore not only local trails, but to share some of your favorites as well. Get in touch if you have a great trail that you enjoy: scout [at] riverdogprints [dot] com.
I’m going to em-Bark (ha!) on a weekly photographic journey, called Assignment: Dog 52. There are many people that participate in a 365 photo challenge, taking a daily photo for a whole year. I think I’ll find it challenging enough to provide a doggy image once a week.
Dogs Without Blogs will continue on a regular basis, but I’ve decided to change the name. The name is yet to be determined, but it will be paired nicely, like a fine wine and cheese, to the new feature on your cats. Yes, I’m talking to you humans that have cats. We’ve enjoyed cats in our family (and we kind of miss them), so send us your darling felines to feature here!
My posts on dog behavior will be peppered into the month. These are my favorites and it’s why I started this furry blog. We dogs are fascinating, no? Which is why I’m going to start a new monthly feature called Dog Blog Love. There are many dog blogs out there, but I want to shine a spotlight on those that have a unique sense of themselves and a lovely whiff of originality.
That’s a wrap on the plans. Hope you’re looking forward to the new ideas as much as I am. I’m always all ears for your input. Oh, and I’m all for an ear rub while you’re in that area.


Sophie is chomping at the bit with excitement! She’s so glad you asked her to “em-bark” on this journey with you.
I love that you are giving us an idea of what you are planning to write about. I can’t wait to read your posts!
Oh wow! That sounds so cool and exciting! Was Sophie once featured on Dogs Without Blogs? I remember a very pretty Weim on there that really caught my eye!
Yes, that was her! I’m so happy she’s going to share her style. Although, you Bunny, are no slouch 🙂
Great blog here, I love it and the design is awesome too. 🙂
I just ordered some canning labels from your Etsy store and of course followed the links to your website store and your blog. I love the plans you’ve outlined for the blog and look forward to seeing the new changes.
Have a great week!
