Jake

Meet Jake, our latest foster who showed up rather suddenly yesterday afternoon. Two year old Jake has been shuffled around in his short life and just wants to settle down with one family for the rest of his days. This youngster is still adjusting to his latest stop but Sky was eager to help him …

Sky-update

Sky missed Candy the day after she went home but we lavished him with love and he’s doing better now. We are starting to know more about Sky’s personality. He has some puppy traits about him, he likes to dig (I don’t know what it is about our peach tree, but if a dog is …

Sky

This is Sky, our newest foster. His real name is Skylar but we thought that was too Hollywood for a dog and call him Sky instead. He doesn’t seem to mind. Sky’s family turned him over to rescue and he’s not sure why, so he’s been very sad since he got here. Candy is helping …

Remembering The Original Red Dog

Today  would have been the 12th birthday  of our first Golden Retriever, Raja. He was our first heart dog, the one who taught me what really matters in life. I have never met anyone, human or dog, that lived every day to it’s fullest as well as Raja. He savored each moment like a new …

Thank You-update.

Hello everyone, Spencer’s humans here. We just wanted to say very big, heartfelt “Thank You” for the outpouring of love and support we have received from so many during our time of mourning. All your cards, messages and e-mails have brought us so many smiles and have helped heal our hearts. Not a day goes …

Love.

Lovely Weekend.

I hope everyone had a very  nice Valentine’s Day, full of love. Mine had lots of hugs and kisses. We spent some time out in the yard gardening. Well, the humans did the gardening while I just watched. I approved the choice of flowers. I even sniffed them all, BOL! In the afternoon we had …

Energizer Puppy.

That’s what my HM calls me now because I keep going and going and going.  Two weeks ago today they gave me two weeks to live when they diagnosed my cancer, hemangiosarcoma. Well, I guess they got that wrong, BOL! I decided to celebrate with a small game of catch. Throw it, throw it, throw …

The Mighty Spencer.

Hi everyone! I thought I’d give you an update on me…I’m still doing mostly well. I have times when I feel just like my normal self and times when I slow down a little. But it’s still  pretty good and I am a happy dog. It’s been raining in Los Angeles this weekend so I …

Super Spencer.

I am still fighting my cancer and winning more good days than bad for now. My humans say even though I look like an old  softy, I proved I am tougher  than I look. This bag is a message for breast cancer but I think it could be for any cancer… it’s all bad stuff. …

Spencer Central.

Hello everyone, it’s me Spencer! I just wanted to let you know I am hanging in there and still have more good moments than bad. Thank you all for your kind words and comments… it means a lot to me and the humans. I am so happy to know that I have made so many …

Spencer Update.

From Spencer’s humans: Thank you everyone for your outpouring of love for Spencer! It brings us so much joy to know that he has touched the lives of so many. The test results came back and Spencer has been diagnosed with advanced  hemangiosarcoma this week. His  prognosis  is very bad because the cancer has destroyed …

Sad.

Yesterday I had a bad day. I woke up and peed blood. Other than that, I was my usual happy self just like I have been all week. Concerned, my humans  whisked  me off to my vet and they sent me to a specialist. After a battery of tests we know that my left kidney …

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 …

Sunshine Break.

Hello everyone! Sorry I’ve been away… the new  year  started very busy at the studio and I’m not getting much blog time. Today I took a small break from work to take some sunshine pictures with my HM. It’s been around 85F (29C) here in my part of Los Angeles all week so HM and …

Spencer On Patrol.

Woo hooo! It’s the weekend and I’m going to the park to do some squirrel hunting. Come on, let’s go! As soon as we arrived I spotted some squirrels. I went straight to work tracking down more as soon as I got out of the car. See my point? Not bad for a city dog, …

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

Wildlife.

I was sunning myself in the backyard when I  spotted  a bird sneaking around on the lawn. I decided to go investigate what he was up to. He was hunting a praying mantis! I scared the bird off and took a good look at the mantis. Can you see him looking back at me? My …

Thanks, Thanksgiving!

Hello everyone, it’s me, Spencer … back from the land of the busy dogs! Things have been very busy at the studio and the humans have a lot of other stuff going on so I’ve been trying to get on my blog for some time. Finally I got some time to relax and have some …
