The Strudwick File: Vintage Strud Shenanigans
Remember last month when Megyn revealed that Strudwick was making great strides to clean up his act? Well, Strud was in vintage form last weekend when he went on quite an adventure throughout the house that resulted in quite a bit of damage. We’ll let Megyn tell you what happened… “This morning, we woke up …

The Strudwick File: A Berry Big Problem
Thanks to our old pal Strud, Megyn had a berry big problem on her hands this week. We’ll let her tell you what happened: “Sigh. You see, the tree that drops the berries is back in full bloom, so now Strud is eating a king’s bounty of berries every day when we let him out …

The Strudwick File: On Second Thought…
In case you missed it, Megyn offered the most shocking Strudwick update yet last week when she shared that our four-legged friend might just have matured into – gasp! – a good boy. She posited the behavioral improvements were the result of age (our dear Strud is four years old now) and a highly specific …

The Strudwick File: End of an Era?!
This week marks the third anniversary of Megyn’s weekly newsletter, which means it is also the third anniversary of The Strudwick File. We have brought you plenty of silliness, sweetness, and shenanigans in the weeks, months, and years since, but things might start to look a little different around here. Here’s the message Megyn sent …

The Strudwick File: Thunder Turns the Tables, Part II
If you are a regular reader of The Strudwick File, you know that Strud’s sister Thunder is a very good girl. She rarely, if ever, causes trouble. And if she is caught doing something ‘wrong,’ it’s usually for a good reason (case in point). But Thunder does have one favorite spot in the house that …

The Strudwick File: Recovery Mode
Strudwick’s paws are still healing nicely after they needed some TLC from all the fetch he played this summer with Megyn and her family at the Jersey Shore. The improvised Elizabethan collar is no longer needed to keep Strud from licking off the ointment and protective booties, and he even seems to be embracing the …
The Strudwick File: First Aid Fashion

The Strudwick File: First Aid Fashion
Earlier this summer, we shared that Strudwick was beating the heat by turning his go-to game (fetch) into a water sport. But it’s what happened when Strud took his favorite form of cardio to dry land that proved problematic. “Got a little carried away on the hot pavement chasing tennis balls and irritated our paws,” …
The Strudwick File: Adventure Tails, Part II

The Strudwick File: Adventure Tails, Part II
As you know, Strudwick and his sister Thunder go on *extensive* walks every day to get their (read: his) energy out. Those have led to some exciting tails – ahem, tales – for both of them. There was the time Strud decided to do his own thing, and there was even one incident where sweet …

The Strudwick File: The Time Machine, Part II
Last week, we treated you to puppy pictures of Strudwick that we promised were the most adorable thing you’d see all week – and we might have just outdone ourselves this time around. Megyn’s trip down memory lane (via her camera roll) yielded not only old photos of a pint-sized Strud, but also throwback pics …
The Strudwick File: The Time Machine, Part I

The Strudwick File: The Time Machine, Part I
We’ve had plenty of cuteness to go along with all the craziness in The Strudwick File over the years, but this might take the cake. Megyn was going through her camera roll recently and happened upon some baby pictures of our dear friend Strudwick. We hereby present the most adorable thing you’ll see this week: …
The Strudwick File: Counter Culture

The Strudwick File: Counter Culture
This here is the rare Strudwick update in which our ever-hungry protagonist did not manage to successfully swipe the snack he was eyeing on the counter. Yes, it is very counterintuitive and a rare turn of events, to be sure. And perhaps no one is more surprised than Strud. Do you see the longing in …
The Strudwick File: Riddle Me This

The Strudwick File: Riddle Me This
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood… and his name was Strudwick? Well, we just might have our answer. Strud has now destroyed his – count ’em – fifth wooden spoon since we’ve been keeping score (here is what happened to the first, second, third, and fourth), in addition …
