When we moved into our house one of the bathrooms was this crazy pink bathroom from 1945…believe me, that is a lot of pink! So this year we decided it had to go. All those TV DIY shows make the demo part look fun but it’s actually the worst…big messes and lots of dust! …

One of my blog readers, Eva, has a wonderful site alilsumptinsumptin that features her original handmade jewelry. Recently she made a necklace dedicated in memory of Ben & Jerry. My human mom has admired Eva’s work for some time and couldn’t resist the beautiful necklace which also would carry a lot of sentimental value for …
Weekend Beach Bum.

Cali Coastal Adventure: Part 5-Heading Home
After a few GReat days in Carmel, e had to head back home to Los Angeles. So we packed up and headed down historic route 101. Route 1 is more scenic if you get a chance to drive it but because of the fires in Big Sur, part of it was closed. I jumped in …
Cali Coastal Adventure: Part 4- Pacific Grove

Welcome to part 2 of my big Cali coastal adventure! We headed down the coast a couple of miles to our main destination which was Carmel-By-The –Sea. It’s a very nice seaside town with a beautiful dog beach and it is quite possibly one of the most dog friendly places ever. You may have heard …

Much Love.
Things have been pretty quiet around here without the pups, Ben & Jerry. I miss them too… just like my humans. We have been spending a lot of snuggle time together and I really enjoy it. It’s very important to spend quality time with the ones you love. I would like to thank everyone for …
In Loving Memory of Ben & Jerry.
Ben & Jerry, April 28 – June 30, 2008 This post is from Spencer’s human mom: Life rarely ends like a movie…where everyone lives happily ever after. Yesterday was one of those days when it was painfully reminded to us. At 4pm yesterday afternoon we had to say goodbye to Ben & Jerry. …
Pups In Need.
I have sad news. The pups, Ben & Jerry, have been in and out of the vet emergency room over the past month, but this past week, they took a turn for the worse. Poor little Ben has been in ICU the past 4 days and is hanging on by a thread. Unfortunately Jerry had …
How To Be A Puppy.
The pups, Ben & Jerry, are still here. They will be 7 weeks old this week. They are growing fast. I think it’s because they eat so much. Once they are done eating they have a nap. While I’m pupsitting I try and teach them the joy of tennis balls. The balls are as big …
The Shenanigans of Ben & Jerry.
I made a movie of Ben & Jerry so you can see how much energy they have!
Puppy Update.

They are crate trained and are eating extremely well and know the commands “come” and “nice” (which means don’t …
Spencer Gets A Package.
I am taking a puppy break today…ok, I just pawed them off on the humans, BOL! Guess what? I got a package in the mail! Once I got home I opened it up….with a little help from the humans because it’s hard to open boxes with paws. Inside was 2 bowls from DogPause, a company …
2 Pups = 1 Tired Dog.
Ben & Jerry are feeling better although Ben’s nose is running a lot from the kennel cough. In the rare moments when they are actually quiet and calm (they’re puppies…that’s not too often, BOL!) I get a chance to relax. They love to snuggle. I prefer that they snuggle with each other and not my …
I Remember That Puppy Energy.
The pups are feeling a little better which is evident by their shenanigans….and running at full tilt until they fall down. Sometimes they just fall over themselves and summersault. It’s really funny. They are practicing stalking each other…they creep up on one another and pounce. That results in them wrestling around with little puppy teeth …
Naughty Puppies.
The pups are still here…I think they are going to be here for long time. I’m trying to help them get healthy so they can go to their furever homes and stop cutting into my cuddle time with the humans! They’ve been in and out of the emergency vets a few times this week but …
Uncle Spencer.
It’s been very busy with work and the renovations and then we got 2 little 4 week old puppies to foster and nurse back to health. Meet Ben and Jerry. They are 2 Golden Retriever pups that some human dumped at the shelter, most likely because they were not able to sell them. …
Reno Roundup.
Despite a lot of things going on at work, we’re keeping up with the bathroom renovations. When I am at work I like to hang out and get pets. Here I am with my human dad keeping him company. Notice how he has mastered working with one hand and petting me with the other, BOL! …
