It was doggie day at my immigration lawyer’s office. Maja, of course, tried to kill (in her mind at least) Maddie the office dog. 🙄

And his cellmate from Spain, Paul, was soooo much worse. It took me a week to get him from Andalusia to Bristol because I got him up to 2 hours driving at a go / 4 hours combined for the day and then he’d just scream bloody murder no matter what you did. Now his family (a lovely retired couple...

They think they are the size of mastiffs, which makes sense really: if they knew how small and vulnerable they really are, they’d never be able to get out from under the duvet! I think that’s one thing I really admire about the breed. It takes a lot of cojones to ignore that you’re constantly...

You’re really making amazing progress with her, it’s so lovely to hear about her new steps every day. Just getting her to the vets at all is huge and the visits with her breeder sound very beneficial for both of you. Take heart, this is where Carbón started too. I used to just pull my car in...

Exactly! Talking food with dog people is always going to be a can of worms but we all do our best based on our circumstances and individual dogs. But if you are willing to open that can of worms (or thread on the forum 😉), I find it really interesting to see what we’re all doing.

It is completely understandable to be relatively composed about the situation for a period of time and then have your feelings seemingly randomly swing to panic. It has to be similar to when a person gets a cancer diagnosis themselves: you still have to do normal life like grocery shopping but...

Oh we’ll still have pleasant times together in the future and I would keep her again if she needed someone to bunk with. It’s been a bit of a headache for sure, but we’re all still alive and kicking. Plus Maja MAY mellow out as she gets older. 🤪 It would have been lovely if she was a more...

I really like this artist. 😊 She has a fun online shop with loads of doggie things. https://www.thelittledog.co.uk/

Only two nights left to go with little Maja - we may all survive after all! 😉 A couple days ago, I thought they were doing better , Carbón even daring to be on the bed at the same time as Maja. I was taking a video to send to Maja’s ML, when Maja went for Carbón (he had a toy that she wanted)...

@Jelinga sounds like except for the last part of dodgy tummy, she did really well. A huge change from just a few weeks ago. 😊

She’ll keep you on your toes! 😁 I remember having to adjust speeds when I went from very slow elderly Brogan to my first foster dogs (and then later to Carbón of course ). I always thought it was hard to walk so slowly with Brogan he last year but then I couldn’t keep up with the fosters...

Reuben will be rocking his new onesie and recovering like the champ he is. Carbón is counting on him to be his normal bouncy self in a few months when they have their next beach adventure. :hug:

I agree. I couldn’t feed the same thing all the time even if I wanted to because of our travels, but I also think it sounds nice to have a variety. Because of medical issues, Carbón can’t really have animal protein anymore, so he gets all sorts of weird stuff depending on where we are. Basics...

What huge progress - she sounds so much happier now! How are you feeling yourself about everything?

If it was me, I’d be pleased that it ended up with someone who would enjoy it instread of in the landfill. 😊 it’s really interesting to read about the ‘give away’ options around the world. Recently I’ve been watching a bunch of videos on Japan and one was describing how hard it is to throw...

She’s totally a vibe! 😁

Well, Maja’s ML is a wonderful friend and I’m glad I can be the part of her holiday where she doesn’t have to worry about her dog. Buuuuut, I’d also have probably waved the white flag by now if I had an out. 😆 I’m going to use the apartment more next week, it seems to work for all of us. 😊 On...

Zeeee cheeewahwaaaahs, zey suck you in weeth the cuteness, and then you are theirs FOREVER! :devil:

This morning Maja decided it would be much easier to have a wee indoors, which at least was easier to fix than her chewing on a computer cable yesterday (my bad for leaving it in reach to be fair). She is calmer today though. She seems to do better when she has a couple hours of quiet time at...
