First a picture of Hugo (l) and Stan (r) having a chat about our bumper crop this past fall.  Then we'll get onto talking about the here and now and all...

 

OK, so Stan the dog is still sick and we've still no idea what's going on.  Concentrating is hard.  Sonogram is Wednesday.  One moment I'm convinced he's dying and the next I tell myself it's just a bad tooth and once the antibiotics kick in... But he's still not really eating so the vet said no more antibiotics for now and -- Oi.  I'm just going to refrain from telling you our dog's entire medical history, tempted as I am to do just that. 

My mom has been calling about 50 X/day desperate to hear, "How Stan is now?  Or now? And how about, right NOW?" And I act annoyed but I'm actually thrilled someone cares about this messy mutt as much as I do. Below is a video taken yesterday in the country. It was a brief respite from dog worries as when Stan is out, he seems to perk up and somehow he's "full of the joys of spring" as my man says.

Thanks for watching Web dears. See you tomorrow.

Lots of xoxo,

Susie

First of all - I hope nothing is truly wrong with Spam as I like to think of him. We have an ancient beagle, and when the day comes Bob will not be consolable I am sure. It is his dog. I would sell him for a dollar given the chance. No, not true. Yes it is. Nooooo....

Secondly, Hugo seems to be babbling away as far as I can see. Are you still on track to have him evaluated? No doubt he will be deemed fine. But good thoughts and positive healing energy to Super Spam! And tell your man to talk more on the videos. LOVE the accent!
