As we are a team i might have assisted by bending the first tree down for her.
Much delight, bread is life.
Two sleeps until our new guide dog arrives. The ransos family is very excited.
How did it go with your german shepherd guide dog pup after ?Griff ? What are you getting this time?
We're still a one dog house hold at the moment but we're having Milo and Cyril visit to get us back into the swing of 2 dogs. I think we'll be getting another in June (all being well)

We had a lab/ golden retriever called Valerie! Went very well and she's now helping a blind person to carry on working. We're getting a lab this time, can't wait.
Monitoring pancake production...
Amateur, that task can be carried out within the drop zone!
A thing happened tonight. I was laid on the sofa in the garden room, Stacey wondered over after eating and indicated she wanted to get in her 'spot'.
I couldn't be arsed to move so just swung a leg down thinking she'll walk off and sulk in the living room. She didn't, she climbed in and settled down.
Those who have Greys may appreciate how significant this is.
Awww! A dog cuddle is so healing she definitely has full trust in you.
What a gorgeous pup 😍.
Dogs are ace. Labradors doubly so.

Another lovely looking guide dog pup. I'm off to meet a new arrival to the group on Monday
Lola is only 5 but she's always been a bit "limpy" (known as the Philmpet in our house). She's been limping for three days so off to the Vets for the worlds most expensive X-Ray. Torn her cruciate but thankfully no op needed. 3 weeks of rest with lead walks only. She's going to be grumpy!
Longer term going to need to manage a bit of early arthritis. Vet does hydro therapy and canine massage. I think we're going to run the treatments on this years insurance and then maybe save the premium for future years!
She's a bit out of it after being knocked out, enjoyed the dog treats in the pub and then flopped out last night. Didn't get a walk this morning- not happy!
Today we were out late but there was water, ball and other Dallys. Harley (short for Harlequin, pic 1) and her sister Blue (too shy for a pic) chased him around for a good while.
My dear best pal Monty, I hope he is still climbing hills on the other side of the rainbow
And liking beer
Doggo is off at my parents as we have been in that landan for the weekend.
Coming back to an empty house is weird.
Keep turning around expecting this...
Stanley at some point yesterday while he was coming down from an anti sickness / pain med high.
He's had a rough few days, Emergency vet on Saturday night with many symptoms of GD. It wasn't that, so he went on another vet day trip today for an ultrasound. Now he's going to a specialist tomorrow to get a proper diagnosis on a mass which showed up on said ultrasound 🙁

I 'liked' the post, wish it could be a worried emoji. Hope the lad is okay mate. Big hugs.
Here's hoping Stanley is back to normal soon. 🙏
Having a poorly dog is rubbish... wish they could talk when they're like that.
Jake apparently isn’t allowed on the sofa. Nobody however, appears to have communicated that to him yet.
How’s Stanley doing?
Huey, half way round a 6-miler earlier today. Needed some firm persuasion to sit for a photo, as there were pheasants & rabbits in the woods not very far away. Which probably explains the slightly distant look in his eyes.
Not my pics to share, but a friend's cockerpoo had 8 puppies last week. ❤️
Have I mentioned that I don't want a dog?
Just under a week later and it's been a bit of journey.
Travelled up to Wakefield for a consultation on Tuesday and based on the symptoms Stanley was admitted immediately for a CT scan. The results found a 13cm almost round tumour weighing just under a kilo attached to his liver, and we opted for surgery the following day to remove it. He lost 1/3 of his blood during the op, most of which happened in about 10 seconds as it was growing near some big blood vessels. We were able to bring him home on Friday evening and he is now recovering well.
Blimey. Get well soon Stanley.
Poor Stanley!
Thats the kind of thing that gives me nightmares. Glad he come through. That face is delightful.
Wow, what a few days Stanley had. Glad he came through it. Make sure he gets plenty of rest 🤣

So glad to see he's back home with you. Hope he's healing well and the prognosis is positive.
The simple joy of food.

Popped out for some food and a pint to celebrate the new job offer. Stacey was waiting for the steak.
He’s wondering if the chef brought him anything from the kitchen.
