Every Dog Has Something to Teach Us
I'm learning from Tilly, my second Boston Terrier.
Tilly is teaching me to slow down.
To pay attention.
To celebrate curiosity.
To turn cardboard boxes into adventures.
To recognize the difference between "I need more exercise" and "I need a problem to solve."
Busy Happy Pup is where I share those lessons.
I hope they help you discover something wonderful about your own dog.

Because a Busy Pup is a Happy Pup
When I brought home my first Boston Terrier, Coco, I thought raising a puppy was mostly about love, training, and patience. I was wrong. We loved her fiercely, but we also made plenty of mistakes along the way.
After saying goodbye to Coco, I welcomed another Boston Terrier into my life. Tilly Tatertot (now better known as Tilly the Tank) has given me a second chance to do puppyhood differently.
BusyHappyPup is dedicated to both of them—Coco, who taught me so much, and Tilly, who teaches me something new every single day.
Real stories. Honest product reviews. DIY enrichment. Lessons learned...one busy puppy at a time.
Tilly's Latest Adventures
Real-life adventures, questionable life choices, and the lessons one curious Boston Terrier keeps teaching me.
Look Mom, A (toxic) New Friend!
Tilly spotted a giant lubber grasshopper and immediately decided it should be her friend. Sometimes the safest choice isn't "trade"...it's scoop first and ask questions later.
