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

[Emily_Babbelhund]

You are indeed most spectacular

Here I am again being spectacular, Amiga @Jelinga. Just a ‘soupçon’ of a bunny teeth smile overlooking Port Isaac. In keeping with the Easter theme, sí?

Oooh, Amiga Cath, ML has not let my leeeeetle toes near the keyboard to update you: pfft!

She promised me today she would do better. I say she is on probation. No Carbón posts and she owes me five extra treats! No, wait: that would mean that I get more treats for not sharing my photos. Que mal, that will not do at all. Pues, I will figure something out. I am muy inteligente, sabes?

I have a lot to catch up on, but I will start with our trip last Thursday to St Ives. ML and I gave never had a bad day in St Ives, so we went there to cheer her up.

We usually go in the winter when there are less tourists, but last week it was warm, everyone was nearly naked, and I got to meet soooo many tourist humans and dogs. People even gave me treats and took my photo with ML. Que bien!

Finally ML and I went into the RNLI shop that supports the volunteer lifeboat organization. For three years, ML has said she would buy me a lifeboat teddy if the shop was ever open while we were visiting. It was open, and I picked out my new stuffy amigo Teddy. Te amo, leeetle Teddy!

So is my ML. She should adopt her own Teddy from the RNLI the next time we go to St Ives. I share my fetchy balls, but I do not share my stuffy amigos!

Hola amigos!

Yesterday we did a group walk in Helford. Which is NOT Helston, where ML and I thought we were going. Helford was muddy and not on the sea and made me itch like I had caught a tick. That was not so very bueno.

But afterwards we went by ourselves to Porthleven, one of our very favorite towns in Cornwall. We had a nap in the sun, and went to our special spot, where ML takes our photo together every year.

The first year, I thought she was rudely photobombing me, so my reaction was “Pfft!”. But now I know the deal, and I smile! Que bien!

First year


Second year



Third year


Yesterday


Maybe ML should get a new hat and scarf, no? Good thing I am the fashionista in the family.

 

[Stacia]

ML looks younger each year Love all the photos, but the last one is perfect as you relax into being a model Carbon.

 

[M.F.]

What a lovely record through the years.

 

[Lisa]

Beautiful!!

We went to St Mawes today. ML made me stand in front of a haunted house with creepy black flowers.

He tenido miedo, de verdad. But I am a professional, so my posing is on point!

Hehe your "black flower" is not a flower . When it flowers it is bright yellow! We used to have many of these in our old garden, I'll see if I can find a photo. They're a type of succulent and they're pretty cool as you can snap off a branch, stick it in the ground and it just starts to grow!

ML here: Oooh, thank you! I couldn’t figure those things out. They were so weird but pretty at the same time.
