Our Black Dog brings out the best in all the dogs around him. He's Shyla's best romping buddy. And he's Hachi's best companion for going to the vet or for wrestling.
The snow on the trails has continued to be almost impassable. So, lots of mornings, we make it only as far as the favorite photo spot in these photos. This is the sunniest spot near our house so the snow is almost gone. I sure hope that the melting spreads soon.
On the morning that I had the pleasure of having both halves of the Labraduo with me on the trails, they decided to engage in some hilariousness while the camera was pointed at them. Shyla wanted to wave to all of you while R wanted to try to howl loudly enough that you could hear him from all around the world!
In R's younger days, I hadn't yet accepted that being very vocal was an immutable part of his personality so it would drive me nuts. Now, I just laugh along with him. Shyla still looks a bit concerned about his behavior though!
After 10 weeks on antibiotics for kidney/UTI issues, R ended them yesterday. We are SO hopeful that we won't end up at the emergency vet this weekend (like the past times that we tried stopping the antibiotics). Please keep your fingers crossed for us.

ReplyDeleteYou look wonderful R and you do too sweet Shyla!
ReplyDeleteWe hope R stays healthy and have our paws crossed for him. Those pictures of the labraduo are so cute. Next time R starts to sing you need to get a video of it for us.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad the meds are done and prayers they can stay done with. the howling is so funny and I can hear it in my head.. everytime I look at Big and See R I wonder why people don't want black dogs. they are so beautiful and FUN... the two of them together always makes me smile... next time record the howl, I would love to hear it.
ReplyDeleteYou and Shyla look so happy romping together, R, and we send you lots of positive vibes!
