Nuisance barking

The dogs are nearing their six month mark now, and one thing that’s not getting better is the barking. It’s the beagle in them. I’m pretty sensitive to this, as I don’t want to be “that” neighbor, but there are times when they have to be outside for some reason or another (like today while the cleaning lady is here. They’re not allowed to scare her off). And they bark. And bark. And bark. Sometimes they’re barking to come back in. Sometimes they’re barking at each other. Sometimes they’re barking at the neighbors. And sometimes they’re barking at the wind blowing the leaves. It’s annoying. They’re my dogs and I think it’s annoying so I can only imagine how the neighbors must hate us.

I want it to stop. So I need suggestions. What works to stop barking? Any collars, training methods or magic tricks that involve blinking twice and snapping my fingers? Help, please!

Still there are puppies…

Life, photos ~ 8:51 pm 7 Comments

No, I haven’t sent them back yet. Or gone to the doctor seeking medication for my apparent insanity. I did take them to the vet yesterday though for checkups and shots. They were unthrilled by that, to say the least. Both have fleas, both have umbilical hernias (which can be fixed when they get…errr…altered) and [...]

Send puppy toys

Life ~ 1:50 pm 24 Comments

I’ve been steadily wearing Josh down on the dog thing, poor guy. After we had to put Oliver to sleep, I had the puppy lust even more. When Oliver was alive, we knew that there was no way we could have a dog, because Oliver was grumpy and mean and hated dogs. It wouldn’t have [...]

About Me


Angela James

There is nothing worse than writing a bio. And writing one for your blog sidebar? Blech. Maybe you landed here via Google, followed me from Twitter (does that make you a stalker?) or maybe we met at a conference or you clicked a link from a comment I made at a blog you visited. Hopefully whatever I said didn't make you so mad you came looking for a picture to throw darts at (yep, that's me up above, in my favorite cowboy hat) but instead drove you to find out more about the amazingly witty and intelligent person behind the amazingly witty and intelligent comment.

However you found me, who you found is Angela James, executive editor of Carina Press, Harlequin's new digital-first press. I'm passionate about digital publishing, my mission is to drag people to the digital dark side, one reader (and author) at a time. I'm also Brianna's mommy. At my blog you'll get an odd mix of personal and professional posts about parenting, publishing, books, cooking, sewing and life in general. Come back often, comment frequently and go green—buy ebooks!

Please note that this is my personal blog and my opinions are neither that of Harlequin, nor representative of their opinions.

Find Me Here

First, I blog once or twice a week at theCarina Press blog, talking about the job, the authors, the books and other things Carina Press. And, of course, you can always find me on Twitter. Or Facebook, if you prefer (mostly the same content, one feeds the other). I also run the Carina Press Twitter and Facebook accounts. Social media, it's where it's at (well, it's where I'm at, anyway).
