    Chihuahuas are extremely protective of their "person" (that would either be you Nicolette, or both you AND Brian!) - so she'll likely give anyone who comes close to you the business, just to make sure she's keeping you safe! It's fun seeing Opal without her harness on - she looks "naked" - Chancie usually had a jacket on so when we'd walk outside on a hot day, people would exclaim "oh, you're "naked" today! :) Don''t worry about posting too many videos of Opal - she's part of the family and sharing in her growing up is awesome! So, THANKS!

    • @NicholetteBrian

    What you say at the end about longevity being a blessing in itself - that really struck me! I'm an old man who's let life turn him into a grouch. But you're right that I should be happy instead - just because I've lived a long time! I'm going to put that wisdom into practice. Thank you! Suddenly ... I can't justify my grouchiness anymore. 😄

    Hi Nicollet, Brian, and Opal, I think the two of you are amazing fur baby parents. Your doing great at training her, and I think I would struggle with discipline as well, because she is so darn cute. I had a tea cup chihuahua. She was black, and her big ears stood straight up. She looked like a bat, lol. I love the places that you take us to. Todays walk was just beautiful ❤ I have watched since before you got Opal, she is just a bonus. Keep being who you are. Sending you all Hugs 🤗😋🤗

There was one point when I was concerned Nicolette was going to go over the edge into the "fish pond" - but, fortunately, that didn't happen - you kids never fail to amaze me. Thank you so much! Little Opal's personality is developing too, eh! She's so cute!

It's a matter of perspective, You really do have to appreciate the little things. Safe journeys 🚐🌈❤

    Great video guys-i have been to Meramac Springs many times when I lived in MO. As for Opie’s play-biting, nice trick is to offer her a chewy bone or squeaky toy to distract her. She is very young and just behaving with you as she would in playtime if she was with her brothers and sisters. She is not being aggressive. Difference is there is no Mama dog to teach her doggie manners so you are her substitutes. She is so lovely and spirited and puppy-happy. Enjoy every moment with her.

    Peaceful "bonus place" and "small beautiful moments". ... Didn't Brezsny say something like Libras would be going somewhere spiritual this week? 🤔
    I was thinking yesterday - how about Nicholette & Brian: The Movie - and then spin off from that a children's morning TV show - featuring Opal the feisty little dog! Inter-able adventurers and their rescue pet - a perfect ensemble for countless teachable story lines! Your branding possibilities are endless. You'll be able to afford a house that's built over a waterfall! Meanwhile - I just wish I had a Nicholette & Brian baseball cap to wear. 🤣

    I’m watching from the uk. Love your channel which I came across by chance. Opal was the interest for me as a real dog lover. Our dog is enormous in comparison being a St. Bernard/ poodle. Nicolette, if it’s possible please could you do a demo of your all terrain wheelchair. It’s particularly interesting as I worked with chair users for many years before retirement. We were always hoping to find a chair that is as adapted for off road use. Happy exploring.
