Rio my 12 year old ESS.

Just before Rio's 12th birthday she under went some surgery to remove some rather large Lipoma's that where troubling her , to our surprise she has made an excellent recovery and is back enjoying doing the things she loves!

One of the perks of being old, is that you do not care anymore ;P. Or, you forget!

...ohh,just a reflecting coat!

Very old, sort of deaf, a little blind, and increasingly fragile ... best dog ever!

Quick visit to Brisbane, Every house I visited had dogs.. I so miss having a pet.

I tried to do a group shot but everyone was acting goofy, posing poorly, not sitting still--so I said, "Everyone! Out! Floyd ONLY!"

Because you can always count on Floyd to not be a film-waster.

Churrie turned 15 this weekend. Churrie came to us and our dog village in December of 2007, adopted through the Second Chance League Sled Dog Rescue organization. She's become quite frail, but we're doing our best to keep her warm and comfortable. We know she won't be with us much longer.

 

We had quite a slumber party for her, so more instant pics to follow. :-)

Abused, Abandoned Jungle Dogs.

 

Mr Boney, an elderly statesman,

jungle warrior an top snake dog.

 

He's looking over into a new part

of the river jungle where Pumpkin is

thrashing about in uncharted territory.

 

Not bad for an old dog with one eye.

The Worm was the top snake dog

but she was also an alien hiding

in a dog costume, true story ;-)

 

A small slice of our jungle life.

 

FYI, his tail does curl forward.

It's not a long stub as seen here.

 

Thank You.

Goodbyes are hard, especially when you’ve give and received unconditional love for 14 years.

He's been crying lately. I don't quite know if it's mental or physical, or both. Here we're on our way to the vet to try and figure it out.

We have an old Golden retriever in logement for a few days.

She is so very sweet.

Maybe wants to play, but she is to old for playing games. She sleeps most of the time.

gotta love this face! More on the blog

Out for walk with chum and his now very elderly but utterly loveable hound, a rescue (former racer) greyhound. Old chap still enjoys a walk, and he loves the company (and attention and cuddles, he is very affectionate), but he's only up to short walks these days. Quick snap of him pausing during the walk, then of him lying down in the back ot the car afterwards to rest.

Tinker-Bell being silly when we were at

the monkey temple on the 3rd of May.

 

Tinker-Bell is 8 yrs old and by the end

of this year she will be 9 years old ;-)

 

Her entire black coat is salt and pepper.

 

This morning at 4:30AM, the 5th of May, it

was already 88 F. Humidity is off the charts.

 

By 5:47AM we were in the mud cobra field.

 

Hooligans went bananas racing around

playing grab ass, doing back flips and

general rowdiness took place ;-0---

 

Big Thank You goes out to everyone of

you guys that supports this adventure.

 

You have saved many abused an abandoned

jungle dogs of a horrific painful and agonizing

slow death. The difference you've made in each

dogs life is phenomenal. .Thank you all so much.

  

Thank You.

Jon&Crew ;)

Hi folks, tudo bom?

I'm on a trip through Minas Gerais, Brazil, in a small town of less than 7000 inhabitants. A quiet place where I can carry my camera in my hand without fear of being mugged and I had the happiness of making a shot of this old dog by enjoying the sun in the middle of the street.

Frodo and Cholie. Last of the dogs we raised from pups, almost 16 years old now.

Please notice his new Māori Tattoos.

Yesterdays' long trip to immigrations' took

the wind right out of our sails, for real ;-0

 

Today.

At 7:AM I'm woken up by Pumpkins deep

baritone talking within inches of my face.

Usually even Pumpkin is up around 5:AM.

I staggered around for 9 minutes then right

back to bed until 11:AM. No# 1 took care of

all the dogs breakfast and other stuff too ;-)

 

At 11 I ate some toast then went back to bed

until 3:57PM. Fatigue had taken over by the

time we had returned home late yesterday.

 

Last Night.

Both of us just took a quick shower, fed

the dogs, ate some rice then went to bed.

 

This Morning.

The plan was, to rise real early and head out

to the nuns where no# 1 would be dropped

off. She then would go with the nuns and

monk to help them along the way. MKM

had to go to the gov hospital today.

It's a long grueling ride in a very

uncomfortable truck with a set

of benches on both sides ;-0

 

Well we didn't make it cuz no# 1

was and is just as burned out

as me. Fatigue got to us !

 

Yesterday was sunny, hot and windy.

Today we've had the same same ;-)

 

That means for the next week or 2

all the stuff packed and moved to

higher ground will be unpacked

and moved back into the house.

 

The river has dropped about 15 feet.

The bank on the other side has heavy

erosion and has been undermined to

where some trees have fallen into the

river. Down south there is still plenty

of storms and flooding. There ya go.

 

Am I going back to the mud cobra field soon ? No.

 

Maybe this weekend but not for a few days with

no energy and so much to get ready for. Family

will be showing up in 2 days so there's that too.

 

Feels like I'm starting to babble.

That means back to bed for now.

  

Thank You.

Jon&Crew.

One of my family's pets. His name is Randolph and he's old: he has lot's of problems even walking.

Just-Another-Nice-Portrait

After hiking for 7 miles ,we all had a rest......apart from Rio who still had the energy to play! Considering she will be 11 years old in a few months she does remarkably well.

.

Well in reality there is no tulips here

but there is a bunch of other stuff

to tiptoe around in the m/c field.

 

Old Man Boney Baloney first climbed

into the sidecar as if saying I've had

enough an just needs to ride along.

 

But, The Monkey and Pumpkin Pie

went racing past and he couldn't

resist the temptation so off he

went chasing the other two

misfits. Soon Pumpkin Pie

came back and climbed

into the sidecar and

Mr Boney had to

walk a ways ;-0

 

Pumpkin is a very clever girl.

She's always setting the other

dogs up for something while

she sits back and laughs ;-)-

 

So here's the deal ---

 

6:AM rolled around and Pumpkin is

standing next to the bed doing her

early morning wakeup call. Then

she sticks her cone under my

hand and starts in wiggling.

Then there's a bunch of

deep talking in-order

to get me moving.

 

Grudgingly I slid out of bed and let

her outside. Did a quick check on

all my body parts and voted to

stay home today due to the

condition my condition

is in. Climbed back

into bed for two

more hours.

 

The run out to the temple in-order to

give all the dogs their monthly shots

has been moved to Friday, because.

 

Maybe, possibly, there's a chance a run

to the m/c field can happen tomorrow.

 

Enjoy your life while you still have one.

  

Thank You.

Dazee Mai (I didn't come up with that spelling) has been a part of our family for about ten years now. I call her a bagle because she is part Bassett and part Beagle. She's fat. She's slow. She's very lazy. She's very lovable...unless you need her to hurry! She can move if there is food involved...especially bread. I believe she would pass up a steak for a piece of light bread.

CC Week 35 Pick a Challenge

Being silly with No# 1 while "The Worm" watches us.

 

Was planning to leave for The Dog Palace just after

5AM but some other dog issues have come up.

 

Maybe this afternoon we can make it out to see Tri-Pod.

 

No# 1 says I'm a "really mean old man".

"What happened to the young monkey

boy with no brain 4 thinking ?" I ask.

 

She thought about that for awhile then replied.

 

"OK, You mean man on Monday, all time after

you monkey boy, no brain 4 thinking ever"

 

I think she still likes me, what say you ? ......;-)~~~

.

Thanks for stopping by and hope to upload something

this afternoon.

 

Thank You.

Just a short note -

 

Early this morning it became evident that

there would be no run to the m/c field.

Monsoon rains have been falling

all night and is still falling !

 

Many roads are flooded and that

includes a few major ones too !

 

So we are not sure when we will

be able to travel to the temple.

Hopefully it will be real soon.

 

No# 1 is in contact with the nuns.

Dogs are all wet but well fed too.

 

Same same here, wet

dogs with full bellies.

 

Our long driveway is a mess.

River has breached the banks

again, not good, life in paradise.

 

Is what it is ;-)

  

Thank You.
