I Upgraded the Theme

Well, I’m thinking the slowness of the site has been because of the theme not being compatible with Wordpress 2.5. I just upgraded the theme to the latest version and it seems much, much faster to me now. I hope that was my problem.
I also changed to one of the new, option, layouts. I [...]

Is Tip Tail Draggin?

I’m trying to load this blog and it seems like it is being painfully slow. Is anyone else having this problem?I put the default Wordpress Theme on, wondering if my Dkret theme is not compatible with Wordpress 2.5 (which I recently upgraded to).
I’m going to leave this boring theme on for a little bit and [...]

Dog Podcasts

A friend of mine told me about some dog podcasts to listen too… and finally I downloaded a podcast receiver and checked them out.
Currently I’m listening to Canine Campus, and the podcast on Calming Signals.. yes, from Turid Rugaas, and I’m enjoying it quite a bit.
She talkes about how dogs may freeze as one of [...]

Dog Wiki for Utah

I love wikis. Wikis fascinate me because everyone can update them. And that means less work for me! LOL. Well, that is, if anyone else participates. Which no one else has done yet, but hopefully in time others will begin to participate.
So I’m getting the whole thing set up on my own. [...]

Shaping with the Clicker

One of the core training techniques with clicker training is called shaping, or free shaping. There is also micro-shaping which is amazing to watch, and the clicker expo had a presenter… Alexandra Kurland who clicks with horses.

What Is Mahalo?

So I signed up. I’m still learning. I have started a little page for dog blogs. So if you know [...]

New Camera

Okay I went out and bought a new camera. For, you may have guessed, dog pictures. It’s an Olympus Evolt e300 and it already came in the mail today.
So far, so good. However I don’t have a Compact Flash card so I’m off to Best Buy after work today to get one, so I [...]

Slow Blogging

I haven’t been blogging much lately because I’ve been changing hosts. I’ve gone to VPS. Wish me luck that it is better than shared hosting. It’s fun to set up, but dang I don’t want to have to do it again anytime soon!
Anyway, I’ve been posting on Luna Tail about my progress.. check out [...]

This is It

If you are viewing this post, the domain name has successfully propagated and this is the new host!
Yay! It can take up to 72 hours for the domain name change to make it’s way all the way across the web. So with time, and patience, this will be the new home of Tip Tail!

Moving Hosts

Ugh. Moving hosts takes a long time. I was hosted on Blue Host, a shared host. And I was getting the Exceed CPU messages too often for my liking.
So I’m moving to a VPS, Virtual Private Server. I did some research and I think it’s best for me. I hope I [...]
