Yesterday I went for my weekly acupuncture treatment. Dr. George gives me a rub before we get started. Ah, that’s the spot! I was practically asleep after that. See that container by my head? It’s full of tasty treats! I felt really good after my session and was ready to play when I got home. …

Dinner Time…Mmmmm.
I love dinner time!! I always get something very tasty in my dish. Here is last night’s selection….BBQ chicken breast with grilled summer squash, avocado (I’m a California dog, BOL!) and brown rice…mmmmm! There’s also some supplements hidden in there but I’m pretending I don’t know that. I can’t wait while the humans prepare my …
Acute Hearing.
I heard a noise! Did you hear something? I waited to hear it again. Are you listening? I’m concentrating. I think it was a squirrel but don’t worry, I’ll find out for sure!
Day Off….Finally.
Ahhh, fall is here and it finally cooled off here in Los Angeles. Yesterday I took the day off and enjoyed the great weather. After spending so much time in the studio this week, I soaked up some rays to boost my vitamin D. Dont’ just stand there…rub my belly! Now this is the life……zzzzzzzz!
Super Studio Dog.
It’s been very, very busy at work this week. I even pulled an all nighter and did 48 hours with the humans to finish a job. I was very sleepy the next day and snored away while the humans were still working. Today we had a session to do some ADR for a movie. …
Sneezing.
Ah, ah, ah, AHHH-CHOOOO!! My allergies are bad and I am sneezing a lot this week. It’s actually been rather humid here in Los Angeles lately so it doesn’t make sense. I usually get bad allergies when the desert winds blow in but this is weird. So I am walking around sneezing slobber all …
The Car.
Oh Boy, oh boy! I am going in the car to fun places! I like to go in the car but I like getting out and exploring where I end up even more. I have the whole back seat to myself… there really isn’t room for anyone else, BOL! Once the car starts moving …
Meditation For Dogs.
I feel pretty good this week. I think my acupuncture and Adequan treatments are helping a lot. So I played a lot and then I relaxed a lot. I like to chill on my West Paws nap bed. It’s nice and portable too so we roll it up and take it with us to my …
Micro Nose World.
My nose is very sensitive… it smells things close up… like red hot chilies…. and yellow flowers…. I can even smell the spray of the drops of water from the fountain… and the roses… as well as the limes…. I don’t get too close to smell this cactus because it’s prickly… but I like to …
Things To Do On Your Weekend. (Dog Version)
A dog’s life is never dull… even if you are lounging around. As a senior dog I like to rest up and then power through my Sunday. The hardwood floors are a nice cool place to chill out in the summer. Once I’ve stored enough energy, I’m up and ready to make the humans pay …
More Tiny Needles.
Today I went for my second treatment of acupuncture as part of my treatment for arthritis and hip dysplasia. This time I was prepared and took my West Paw Eco Nap Bed. It rolls up just like a yoga mat, and I just love it! It makes you feel comfy no matter where you are. …
Pet Therapy Monday.
Yesterday was my day to go to do pet therapy at Northridge Hospital. I get really happy to go when my HM starts getting all our things ready. I sit somewhat patiently and watch her ironing our outfits and packing my cookies. Let’s get this show on the road! We are part of a group …
The Ups & (Mostly) Downs Of Getting Old.
Hello everyone, it’s me, Spencer, back at last! Sorry I’ve been away so long. There has been a lot going on here and it was difficult to get online. I have been very busy at work and with the pet therapy program at the hospital. Part of my job at the hospital is to help …
Bath Renovation Roundup.
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! …
Beautiful Packages With Pawesome Surprises.
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.
After our big Cali Adventure, it was hard to get back into the swing of work. So after slogging through the week we decided to spend a day at the beach to relax. We packed up a nice picnic and headed over to our favorite local dog friendly beach, Leo Carrillo State Park beach. Dogs …
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 …

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 …
