Rainy Day

It has actually rained here in Los Angeles for the past 2 days…really rained, not just a little drizzle. We really needed it and now everything is green and happy. Kona was getting cabin fever because we missed our walk last night, so when it started to clear late this afternoon we headed out for …

Kona Bird Dog

After a really busy work week, we took a small day trip this weekend up to Ojai and Ventura county. Kona was more than ready for adventure. Ojai is a nice place with lots of artists. That makes for some awesome shopping. The main street is a row of unique shops with one of a …

Kennedy – Adopted!

Our week has started off with GReat news…Kennedy has been adopted! We knew she would be adopted quickly because of her fantastic personality. Kennedy will be living the good life here in Los Angeles with her new family who adore her.  On her last day with us, Kennedy finally got Kona to play with her, …

Kona – Fall Is Here!

Now that fall has kind of arrived here in Los Angeles (sort of…it was only 89F / 32C today!), we actually can spend some quality time outdoors. Hey, anything under 90F is cool:) Kona was loving all the fresh smells as we did some gardening last night. He especially loves to sniff the leaves as …

Kona-Bling

We thought Kona needed a new tag now that he’s part of the family so we went shopping and came across a shop called Urban Puppy. They hand make the coolest tags and customize them for you. We picked this one for obvious reasons: We also had our contact information stamped into the back. The …

Kona – update

I just want to thank everyone for their very kind words on Kona joining our family. I believe if any of you had the opportunity to meet Kona, you would adopt him in a second:) We’ve been asked if we will continue to foster and we love fostering, so once Kona settles in a bit …

Kona- Adopted!

Do you know why Kona is smiling? Why he is joyfully celebrating? We do. Kona is officially adopted….by us. Yes, once again we are “foster failures” and we couldn’t be happier about it:) We love all our fosters but there was something extra special about Kona for us. There was an instant connection, a certain …

Kona-Big Week

Kona had a huge week here with us. First he got neutered as required of all rescue dogs in Los Angeles. Kona was a little groggy when I picked him up but he recovered just fine and was great about not trying to pull out his stitches. Next he kept me company as pulled his …

The Joy of Being

Dogs know how to live, really live it up and enjoy life like no one else on the planet. One of the reasons I love dogs is because they are the epitome of what a good person should be…happy, carefree, loyal and loving. Having a dog in your house is a constant reminder to be …

Kona

Yesterday we said goodbye to Luke as he left in a transport up to Homeward Bound in an effort to find him the perfect forever home. He had a great time before he left with lots of pets, a massage and some treats (lo cal!). We’re sure some lucky family will fall in love with …

Lucky Luke-update

Lucky Luke is a very good natured boy with people but would rather not share his space with other dogs or cats. We think he deserves all the attention he wants. This sweet boy loves to be brushed, petted and loved. He is a complete velcro dog and will be by your side no matter …

Rain, Rain, Go Away.

After a week of beautiful sunshine, I woke up to this today…rain. So instead of my morning walk, I hung out in the doorway and watched the rain fall. Notice how I  conveniently  got the humans to put my blanket there for me? After work I came home and snuggled up on my living room …

Hello 2009!

Hello 2009! I stayed up to midnight and celebrated with a cookie, some milk and big hugs from my humans. It was the perfect start to the new year. The first day of the year was excellent here in Los Angeles. It was a beautiful sunny day and I spent most of it outside, playing …

Happy Holidays!

Hi everyone! I don’t have much time to visit all my friends lately but I want to take time to say thanks for visiting me.  I hope everyone one has a GReat holiday (with lots of tennis balls and chewies!)  &  a very happy New Year! wags, Spencer
