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

Hola todoooooos! I am back! Si, si! Foster Lady, who is no more my Foster Lady, has no more job and this means that I will have time to tell you of my spring adventures and have more NEW adventures. Que bien! Work is really over rated, no? Making me happy is already a full time job, so I think she should concentrate on that very worthy job and forget all the rest. Muy logico, no?

So, en primero, first of all: thank you to Reuben's human Fair Lady Kate for outing Foster Lady as Mama Lady. Ja, ja! I have been her own Spanish gentleman dog from the first day, but she is SO SLOW to understand things. Un año! ONE YEAR! This is how long she thought I was a foster dog. Really, does she not listen to me? En todo caso, anyway, thank you Fair Lady Kate for getting her to finally admit to all my Labrador friends that she is the Mama Lady. It seems to me that she is much more relaxed now that she doesn't worry about me leaving her.

En segundo, second of all: did you know that I am studying very hard to be an assistance dog? Si, si, si! I love it because SD (Service Dog) training means mucho, mucho, mucho sausages. Que rico, how delicious! It also means doing silly things that make Mama Lady laugh and that makes me laugh too. Claro que si, of course, the dog version of laughing which is running around and jumping in the air. Mama Lady says someday we will take a big test and then I will get to go to places like airplanes and museums and grocery stores. I don't really care about airplanes and museums, but oh la la would I love to see the inside of a grocery store!

En tercero, thirdly, we have been having a few travel adventures the last months. Mainly we have been in Cornwall, which Mama Lady thinks is the best place in the whole world. I think she is right. The only thing I do wish was that all my friends could be here. Already Cassie was here and Benson was here and last year Monty was here and claro que si, of course, Reuben is here. Now if only Pongo and Harley and even my favourite Australian friend Curly Murphy could be here! Sería perfecto, that would be perfect!

Para empezar, to start, here are some photos of our big drive in my blue TARDIS car (I do not know why it is called that, only that it is). Here I am in Calais, just before taking the ferry to Eeengland.

We had a really good training day today and got some good photos but came home to dead internet...argh! So no posting as I'm useless on my mobile. Our very nice landlady offered us a move back to her little cottage if the owners here can't get it fixed by tomorrow. So Carboncito and I may be hitting the road - albeit a very short one - again tomorrow!

We moved again today - back in the tiny but cute cottage. It has great internet and is next to Carbon's buddy, little Yorkie spitfire Rosie. I think he missed her. He also likes to go into our neighbours' (and landlord's) back garden and lick their barbecue grill. Win-win for all of us, I'd say.

Here are a few photos of our 'settle on your mat' spots from the last couple days. He's really getting the hang of just hanging around. :D

At the Bedruthan Steps near Magwan Porth, watching the seagulls...

Sometimes I get to settle on the mat too. ;)

At the entrance of the park next to the shop so everyone there - and their dogs - had to walk by us.
