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

I thought he was a discarded backpack

I thought that too!!

That's his whole strategy. Camouflage yourself until the moment is right to leap out and grab whatever edible passing by.

very cosy and festive (still Epiphany I think?!)

I'm a big believer in fairy lights and candles year round - easy to stash in the TARDIS and can help make a dreary rental a bit cheerier. Not that the Cornwall house is dreary - far from it. How can a house be depressing when it has ducks and frogs in chef's hats? Not to mention the teddy bears in macs and wellies.

@Emily_Babbelhund I always think that the house feels welcoming and homely , we are even thinking of having a few days at the park in Spring with Debbie and Silas , its lovely x

Yes, it just has a nice vibe. The owner says she gets that comment often from guests.

I loved it and so did the dogs! Would love to come back but don’t think I can deal with that journey again quite yet

Lovely photo on the windowsill.

He still travels everywhere with me.

Carbon is on the sofa, by the way...just a little camouflaged!

I still can't figure out where his head and tail are

He's wrapped up in a big grey blanket, so only his head is sticking out. Does that help?

Looks so cosy and inviting...LOVE the upside down little Cornish house. Hopefully we can make our way down tomorrow...just need to check the front wheel isn't going to fall off first!!! Otter has her little bag packed, her wabbit, lambie and new coat....

Back in Cornwall with Otter. It was 7 months since we were last in this gorgeous but slightly odd (yeah, teddy bears and weird frog ornaments...) @Emily_Babbelhund might be sometime updating this thread, because I only have ONE photo as camera did a brain fart and she probably has a hundred or so...(largely because of my constant nagging....oh look at that....oh and THAT! )

I have to admit to be slightly apprehensive how Otter would cope...all that rehab....and all that open beach, and humans! . Despite everything, even a group of men carrying each other, and huge surfboards, children playing, LOTS of dogs, she did really well, so proud of her! Her recall was very good, she stayed fairly close, although I had my heart in my throat when both Carbon and Otter raced across the beach! Considering the running, playing and lots of good recall, her leg has held up really well. The beach at Harlyn Bay was gorgeous, the sun came out, and the temperature was positively balmy. OK we both have wet feet, but that is a another story, the hunt for Emily's Wellies is still very much on rofl:)

We finished off the afternoon with a mahoosive Sunday carvery, complete with takeout yorkshire puds (don't ask...).

My only photo.....I dismantled a chest of drawers for dog training, and had fun with 2 paws on the box, with both dogs pivoting from side to side! Great fun!!!

Hola todos! Mi amor Señorita Otter is here with her ML, Cookie Señora @Beanwood. Oh si, we have been having such fun that my paws can barely type, I am so cansado, so very tired. But it is a good tired, de verdad, truly. Here are some of today's adventures!

No more wet from above, no more wet from above! That means BEACH and PLAY. Que bonita eres, how beautiful you are, Miss Potter.



Que bien, how amazing that she can do that with her ears!




Here I am with my best modelling.


More playing!


Boring scenery shots to make my ML happy. Humans are weird.




Me looking very guapo with Señora Kate.


After the beach we went to a cafe and ML had her very first English carvery lunch. I had two sneaky sausages that were on the floor. Me quiero mucho, I love English carvery lunch!

Now we are at home and Señora Kate is teaching me how to pivot on a box along with Otter. Are we not two smart and beautiful friends?

 

[Jacqui-S]

Wonderful
All of it.
