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 …

Foster Updates

We thought we’d share some news we’ve recently gotten on some of our past fosters…. Sunny came to stay with us and Spencer and foster, Jessy, in March 2007. This 10 week old sweetie was full of Golden puppy energy. She and Jessy (4 months old) were a little Golden tornado whirling through the house …

Kona-Getting To Know Kona

Kona spent a nice Sunday with us as we got to know him better. We found out he loves tennis balls and he flips them around on his own if you don’t throw them for him. He’s very agile and extremely fast. He politely waits for you to throw the ball. He doesn’t mind hats. …

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 …

Lucky Luke

Meet Lucky Luke. He’s our first foster back from our trip down under. Poor Luke wasn’t so lucky when he lost the only family he’s know for the past 10 years to some circumstances beyond his control. He didn’t let all that get him down and has a very nice smile for everyone he meets. …

A Small Break

Hi everyone. Thanks for all your very nice comments on Titus’ adoption! We’ve heard report that he is doing very well and getting lots of love…no surprise there, with that cuddly bear look of his:) I’m going to take a small break from blogging to really focus and catch up on a few things at …

Titus- Adopted!

Today is one of those bittersweet days for fosters…Titus left us early this morning for his forever home up in Northern California. So while we are so very happy for him to find a family to love him, we are sad to see him leave our home. Titus holds the record of staying with us …

Honest

Thanks to Farley and his mom over at 1000Goldens.com for giving us the Honest Scrap award! The instructions are to link back to the person who gave us this award , share 10 things about myself that are true, and pass it along to 10 more bloggers. I’m going to share the questions with our …

Titus- Black & White

I’ve been studying black and white photography and thought I’d test out some shots with Titus. Titus is just as handsome in black & white as he is in color. You can’t hide true beauty.

Titus-Marrow Bones

Titus was very excited this evening. And this is why….fresh marrow bones from the butcher. Seasoned with a little olive oil and sea salt, they were ready for the grill. “Wait a minute….where’s mine?!?” The wait was worth it…. More please!

Remembering Spencer

It is  5 months today that we lost Spencer to hemangiosarcoma. There is not a day goes by that we don’t remember Spencer, sometimes with a few tears but mostly with a smile or laugh.  This week was our 13th wedding anniversary and it made me remember  the trip we took up to Carmel for …

Titus-2 months update

Today is Titus’ 2 month anniversary of being in our foster care. The search for his forever home continues and he is happily waiting for just the right family. Titus is a very gentle 2 year old and loves attention. I think he would be a very good candidate for a therapy dog. As long …
