Punkin. Doin' it rite!

For those still keeping track at home, we did three rounds of Profender spaced three weeks apart—so we would kill anything that was dormant during the initial round(s)—and then retested last week. The siblings are negative for ova and parasite. Again, no side effects whatsoever. Let's just hope it sticks this time!

She is amazing! And sleeping very soundly this evening, I suspect.

Dog is cat.

Happy birthday, beautiful!

Thank you.

Happy birthday, Milo! Fourteen is fantastic—must be all that wild-caught protein over the years. We all love you here and hope you'll stick around with Ellen and Gelsey for a good while yet.

Yep, I've been very pleased with it for Doolin (Willa is not as anxious and prefers nekkid ears), though for storms it's all about getting the timing right, of course. I know Jan @FiveRoooooers has also had success with her homemade version (vet wrap, I believe) for Punkin's noise sensitivity.

How did you let her leave? She's so cute.

One of my all-time GT faves. As those dark patches faded she was left with the best Groucho Marx eyebrows.

Gelsey! Excellent banditry. Well done for choosing a healthy snack—dearly departed camper and pumpkin thief Bea would most certainly approve.

A winter wonderland indeed. So pretty! Mine are loving the 30s temps this week (far better than summer temps!), but there's not been a bit of snow here yet.

They get hidden overnight.

A couple of pics: Just the wrong front leg but otherwise exactly her! (Miss Modesty.)

Doolin enjoying his toys!

What a beautiful boy Sail was, and clearly adored. Thank you for sharing this.

That is Banjo, one of two shih tzus belonging to my husband's aunt. We used to visit them in Atlanta around the holidays (they're now in SC so not close enough for a quick trip). Sweep seemed to realize that although it was her bed, it was Banjo's house, and perhaps the sheer audacity of the bed hijack shocked her into submission. I believe this was also the Christmas the other shih tzu, Tater, hopped on an ottoman to sniff Sweep's butt.

I'm not much on Facebook except for groups related to greyhound health, but occasionally it offers some gems, like this memory it showed me from 8 years ago. and then there was this one last week... Oh Sweep, you never had a poker face.

Yes, thank you!

Willa got two bockses! And got to have an adbentoor getting them which was well worth it! Thank you, Vanessa and Fuzzy, for the great gifts. They're perfect, from the treats galore—we ALL think those Benne Wafers are yummy—to the ocean-themed toys. Doolin might have stolen the fish one for a test-drive, but Willa was a good sport. We also love the personalized ornament. It looks just like her! I'll post pics asap. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

Thank you, Carmen and her mom Monica for the wonderful Christmas presents! Doolin especially loves the crinkly dragon (we even call Doolin a dragon sometimes*) and I am excited to try all the cocoa flavors. The socks look so cozy, and the treats for hound and human alike are perfect and will definitely be enjoyed. Thanks again, and Merry Christmas! I'll post pics later. * because of his breath

Thunderstorms! Hookworms! That which shall knot be named! Plusalso Doolin would like to add skeery skooters in the middle of the sidewalk, reflective signs, and anything that moves in the wind. His mom would like to add Nashelorette parties and pedal taverns.

Losing her at 5 is so deeply unfair (and I don't want to think about it with Willa). But what a wonderful legacy indeed.

Yep!

Vanessa and I have sorted ourselves.
