I’ve been away and came home to great news…Larry has been adopted! A true gem of a dog, Larry is sure to bring lots of smiles and love to his new family. This news is particularly sweet, because Larry was rescued from the shelter whithin an hour from being slated to be euthanized. He is …
Foster Larry-Update
Back home from some traveling and I found this photo of Larry on a roll of film (Kodak Gold400/Nikkormat FTN camera). Larry is now in a foster home in Northern California and is still looking for his forever home. It is hard to believe such an awesome boy has not fond his home yet, but …
Fosters Sydney & Bella-Day 4
Today Sydney and Bella made the journey up to Homeward Bound, where we’re sure they will soon sweep a new forever family off their feet. We had a lot of fun with these two and wish them all the best in their new lives. The girls enjoyed their last night cuddled up on their beds, …
Fosters Sydney & Bella-Day 3
An action packed day with work didn’t leave much time for photos today but I really liked this one of the girls watching some neighborhood action I grabbed with my phone. The living room is Sydney & Bella’s favorite room in the house. All our dogs love this room. My theory is it’s because of the …
Fosters Sydney & Bella-Day 2
Sydney & Bella had an awesome day today. After salmon for breakfast, Bella got a walk while Sydney played at home. (She is waiting for surgery for an ACL injury, so is on restricted exercise.Sydney will get her surgery as soon as she arrives at Homeward Bound this week.) Bella was very lovely to a little …
Goodbyes & Hellos
Early this morning, was a sad time as Larry left us, on his trip up to Homeward Bound and to his forever family. He is an awesome dog and we wish him much love on his new journey. Immediately after Larry left, two Golden sisters showed up on our doorsteps looking for a place to …

And now for something completely different…Larry’s playtime in timelapse…
Foster : Larry-Day 12
More fun with Larry… He’s just fooling here, Larry gets up bright and early, ready to go for a walk…but the bed is so comfy…. Care to kick the old soccer ball around a bit before work? Chillin’ after an evening walk… And this one is just because…
Foster : Larry-Day 10
Larry got a bonus outing today so he spent the afternoon and early evening napping…. I present…lazy Larry… …and busted on the bed…. “What?” If you have room in your heart and home to take in this great-natured guy, please contact Homeward Bound.
Foster : Larry-Day 9
Larry did well on an easy hike through Griffith Park this weekend. He was very interested in the horses we passed, sniffing their scent as they trotted by. After his hike, he relaxed while we did some gardening. Larry was watching people walk by. Although he will bark to alert you to people in front …
Foster : Larry-Day 7
Larry is still chillin’ with us until he finds his forever home, which we’re sure will happen very soon. This handsome lad is looking better everyday, as we have him on a diet (salmon, fruit, veggies) and an exercise schedule to get him into tip-top shape (he is on the chubby side:). His fur is …
Foster : Larry-Day 5
Five days with Larry, and he has settled in nicely. He is now coming to work with me, where he loves to get pets from clients and then he snoozes while we work. After work, Larry enjoys some fun and games, his favorite is chasing things….balls, stuffies and frisbees. He is very good at catching …
Foster : Larry-Day 4
We were practicing our obedience commands when I captured Larry’s perfect sit-stay. He sat there until I gave him the “come” command. We are working on both hand and vocal signals. I am pleased to announce Larry has mastered “leave it” and will wait until I tell him “ok” to get a cookie inches from …
Foster : Larry-Day 3
Larry’s 3rd day with us was very wet and full of rain so he spent most of the day lounging inside. He came to work with me and was the perfect boy, sleeping for most of the day and happy to take a walk in the middle, even though we got quiet soaked. In the …
Foster : Larry-Day 2
Larry has settled in nicely and we are getting to know this great guy. He is a moderate energy dog, happy to sleep at your feet while you work after a good morning walk and play. Larry is a bit overweight right now and he might feel a little more frisky once he gets to …
Foster : Larry
Meet Larry, a flat coat retriever. Sprung from jail, Larry is now livin’ large and taking advantage of not being cooped up in a cell. As you can see he is pretty happy about his new freedom. First thing on his agenda: get clean. A guy gets mighty smelly in jail, so after a bath, …
One From The Past
While organizing my photo library I came across this one, from a year ago, in the archives. We had a 5 hour hike in the mountains that day. Kona probably put on twice as much milage as we did with his extra exploring as we hiked. As soon as we got home, he had dinner and …
