Jake loves to watch the world go by outside the window. I saw he was extra interested in something. The enemy on his lunch break. This squirrel was doing back flips for about 5 minutes. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get a good shot of that. but he kept Jake entertained for a little over an hour. …

Jake-update
Jake is really enjoying having us all to himself and loves to play. He has so much energy we have dubbed him “the Red Rocket”. I have a feeling this guy would be really good at agility. After a big walk, in the mornings, we have a high energy play. Jake loves the Westpaw ball. …

We’re happy to report that Sky is officially adopted! He will live with his new family in Los Angeles and is starting off his new life with a new name to go with it, Murphy. His family had a sneak preview this weekend and fell in love as soon as they met him and the …
Sky & Jake
Sky & Jake are a good example of the different shades Golden Retrievers come in. We’ve had reds and golds and they are both very pretty or handsome in the case of these 2 fellows. Sky is trying to entice Jake to play but they have very different styles of playing. Sky likes to wrestle …
Jake-update
Jake is settling in to our home and we are finding out new things about him as he does. Goldens are hunting dogs and Jake has the nose of a keen hunter. He puts his nose to the ground and sniffs every tiny scent. Jake is very keen on moving things so he would not …
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 …
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. …
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, …
Lazy Day.
I was very lazy today. The best part was when I hung out with my HD in the backyard. We’re best buddies. We kept an eye on all the birds and squirrel activity. The sun felt so good that I decided to just flop over on HD’s lap. That turned out to be a …
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
