    Jazz

    Its been 48 hours. Jazz’s stitches look OK with no swelling or redness. The pain killers are helping her but she’s clearly a bit uncomfortable. We had a call from the vet and were able to say that things were going well. Jazz is restless so keeping her occupied with low intensity activities...

    Jazz

    Our first dog had a phantom pregnancy after she was spayed. She also developed a dislike of visiting the vets refused to go into the vet’s room. The waiting room had a church pew along one side. Gypsy would crawl under the pew and refuse to come out. She ignored all inducements, pleas and...

    Jazz

    Jazz had a reasonable night. She slept fairly well and didnt move around much. We've been hand feeding her bits of chicken when she‘s awake. Its a fairly bland food in case she feel sick after the GA. Just now she had a small portion of her normal food, but we added some water as she’s not...

    Jazz

    Weve got her a puppy onesie in case she starts licking her stitches. The vet nurse thinks her neck is too long for an inflatable collar. The vet intends to call on Wed to check on progess. The aim is for gentle walks from next week with stitches out in 10-14 days.

    Jazz

    Jazz was spayed this morning. We brought her home about 20 minutes ago and she’s now dozing in her basket. We're keeping her in the living room so life will feel as normal as possible. All her exciting toys have been hidden but we've left some of her chews around. For at least the next two...

    Jazz went to the groomer yesterday for a trim. As always, she looks a little stunner when she's been trimmed, and we get lots of compliments about her appearance. Today we went into town for a walk around the park and a coffee and I decided to keep count of the compliments. All seven of the...

    Coffi Lab

    Jazz dragged us into Coffi Lab again this morning, not that we needed much persuading! Just for Easter they have a new cake. Its a nest made from chocolate flavoured choux pastry, lined with a chocolate creamy filling and with a chocolate egg in the nest. Utterly wicked and guaranteed to...

    Hoopers

    Not yet. Her season seems to be lingering and reluctant to end. It's been nearly two months now so it may be time for a visit to the vet.

    Earlier today we were in a small indoor shopping centre with Jazz. I sat down with Jazz while Ruth went off to look at some clothes. As Jazz lost sight of Ruth she whined, whimpered and generally created. She made such a pitiful racket that people came out the two nearest shops to see what the...

    Flicka

    What an amazing transformation. Youve worked wonders with Flicka.

    Hoopers

    Anything that can exhaust a Lab must be serious exercise. We’ve been looking at Hoopers for Jazz. There’s a trainer in Wormelow who does it so we’re going to try it out. It could be just what Jazz needs to occupy her brain and focus all her energy. All tips gratefully received!

    Jazz has enjoyed her first birthday. A lovely walk in the woods, nice treats, ‘helping‘ Ruth in the garden, and she’s now settled down to watch Crufts.

    Happy first birthday to our lovely, confident, adventurous, funny Jazz. She’s got a special treat later on - home made banana and blueberry bites (she loves fruit).

    Today Jazz met her pal Ruby at the park. Today they had a huge play fight with lots of growling, chasing, rolling and jumping. It was lovely to see them having so much fun.
