What’s going on with the wranglers and the dogs? There are all absolutely out of their minds.. Is it the changing of the seasons, the moon, something growing in the backyard? My kids have been excessively loud lately, I mean downright annoying. It’s as though they are both regressing back to the toddler years.
The four-legged canines are acting obnoxious, grabbing anything that isn’t nailed down. The Black Dog is digging like a little maniac, leaving us humans with giant craters to contend with. Smart Border Collie is sassing us and barking like she’s just seen a werewolf.
Does this have anything to do with October 31st? We don’t need to go to a fright night, we are living one, courtesy of the tween twins. Channel Chick has already perfected her howl for Halloween night. Just ask the neighbors, they have bolted their doors and windows. Rocket Boy has been working on his long jumps from chair to sofa, I’m waiting for him to spin a web and climb up on the roof.
This all strikes me as very odd behavior. What should I do? Should I call in a witch doctor from some remote island? Maybe he can concoct a magic potion that will tame the wild animals. Here they are in full karate mode, Channel Chick is the one starting the trouble. Rocket Boy is like, “Mom, I swear, I will never like girls!”

I’ve read all the parenting books, and they don’t mention any behaviors like these. I even hooked up with Cesar Milan, The Dog Whisperer, for canine and kid advice, went straight to voice mail. I finally resorted to asking the MIL, mother in law, she said, “Lock the doors, let them root in the yard for berries and drink out of the hose!”
Last but not least I contacted our local locksmith. He advised me to change the locks and run for the hills. That’s exactly what I’m gonna do!
