    The Labraventures of Carbón, Spanish (ex-) foster dog extraordinaire

    Yes, it’s hard not to think the worst until they walk out after the fact, Carbón was a champ though. He’s only had a couple GAs but both times he just bounces out like it was nothing. I’m grateful that my worry doesn’t seem to touch him. 🥰

    It is true! Brr! Summer in San Francisco is like January in Cornbeefwall.

    Oh, I do agree with you! Different units, different scales. It cannot be that all that ‘special’ Cookie Man food did me dirty. I am fairly certain if it goes directly into my mouth and not first into my bowl, there are no calories at all! Besides, my September lab results from Germany were SO...

    Pues, that mean old ML of mine did not let me come back for long back in August before disappearing again! Lo siento! All we (mainly) did in California was work and work. We were both in poco grumpy. I love to visit Cookie Man, but maaaaybe 8 weeks was a leeeetle too much, sabes?

    Hola amigos! We have escaped Germany today! Dios mio, the last month was a gran desfio, a big challenge. Nothing bad, in fact my health is excellent these days, but we are happy to be doing something else that is NOT to do with German bureaucracy. Pfft! Now we are just two best amigos going on...

    Queen of the Rainbow 🌈

    Oh Jacqui and Sophie, I was so sorry to hear this news. Sweet and kind Lilly is indeed the Queen of the Rainbow and will always be Queen here too. I hope you can make your way through the sadness to get to be able to remember only the good times. Sending both of you hugs and care.

    Hola amigos! It has been way too long, and to that I say “Pfft!”. I have had many adventures in the last two months here in California. Mainly they are adventures in having Breakfasts 2-3, Lunch 1-3, and Dinner 1-4, all of which ML says are not interesting enough for you to read about. She also...

    Thanks, Jac! Turning my phone did the trick!

    Snowie

    I’m sorry your friend’s words were so upsetting - I’d be in pieces too if someone said that to me. But you handled it perfectly and from your last post it sounds like you’ve got your spirits back. Snowie is clearly still a happy dog living his best life even if with age that looks different than...

    Thank you for all you do, Kate @Beanwood ! When I click the button link in your top post it takes me to an admin login and I can’t proceed, and I can’t see a Donate button on the main menu. Is there another route to donating?

    Doggy brags

    Congrats to Shamu on his first hotel adventure! They’re such a special pair of pups. It’s so heartwarming to see Oreo get to spend her happy life with one of her babies. ❤️

    Hi Cath, he’s doing great, thank you! 🥰 He’s got dissolvable stitches where his tooth was but it all looks nice and healthy. Beyond the first couple days he wasn’t bothered in the slightest. I’m very proud of him - he’s a tough little nut! We’re having a mini adventure this weekend going up to...

    "Queen" Lilly ❤️ 15 years

    First of all, those photos of Lilly are adorable. The Queen has still got it and you’re giving her happy moments to remember. Having said that, I’m so sorry it’s been so hard with the incontinence and her other age-related health challenges. Ageing is cruel and hard and just downright stinks...

    Truer words. He has had more than his share of health issues and yet hardly ever shows any symptoms and the tail never stops wagging. I’m very lucky. ❤️ His sutures for his now-absent tooth are healing nicely and his jaw seems less painful. I only gave him pain meds the first day as the wobbly...

    He’s right as rain! Not even wobbly by the time we got home. I’m just so relieved that my boy is back in action. 🥰 I know it’s a bit silly to worry over something like a tooth extraction, but my brain just goes there. I’m grateful to the vet - who I didn’t know - and the power of the Señor to...

    He’s out of surgery! 🥳🥳🥳 Now I’m just waiting for him to recover a bit from the GA. It was an easy extraction as the tooth was completely disintegrated the gum line so they just cleaned and cauterised it. X-rays showed no other teeth similarly affected. We got VERY lucky! I feel so much better...

    The Labraventures of Carbón, Spanish (ex-) foster dog extraordinaire

    As I knew today would be no fun for the Señor, I took him to the nearest dog beach yesterday. He acted like a loon, even running up to a couple on a big beach blanket and sitting between them. Which would not have been all that bad except their BABY was already sitting between them. The baby...
