    First frost today, just on the roofs along the street. No wonder I was a bit chilly, prancing around the garden in my pyjamas last night, trying to see the Northern Lights!

    What made you smile today?

    For some years I worked in a Day Hospital for older people with mental health problems. I often took Barley, my Yellow Lab, to work with me and the lifting of mood for everyone, including staff was instant and easy to see. She loved it too, lots of norty treats!:giggl::dug:

    Well done Silas! Also good that the tutor fed this back to Debbie, she/he must have understood that it would help her to hear this. It sounds like a friendly and caring place, where Silas could do well.

    Another FNA for Reuben

    So sorry to hear this, such a worry for you. If it's any comfort, Joy had a lump on her side a few years ago that similarly was visible through her fur. The vet thought it was probably benign but said 'If it was my dog though, I'd want it off.' So off it came and was sent away to be checked...

    Whenever GGJ and I are lucky enough to visit another MLF home (and this year has been particularly lovely, because we've been to several) I find myself looking at the calendar and very nearly saying ' That's a coincidence, we've got the same calendar!' Which of course it's more than likely...

    The people who looked after her when I was away, both experienced Labrador people said 'She was lovely, very good, and also a little bit....' 'Cheeky?' I asked,......'Bossy?' They said yes! Cheeky, bossy, also very good at getting her own way and a very clear communicator. I could only reply...

    Yesterday evening Joy took ages to settle down, which is most unlike her. She was restless and fidgety and kept biffing me with her paw. I tried letting her out and everything else I could think of, but she was still Not Happy. It's been cooler today and I could see my breath on our morning...
