Mom & I are going camping.
She had a really hard time packing. Not sure if we will always get to go. She has MG. It started as double vision and her eyes just closed involuntarily a lot of the time. has moved on to her arms too. Hard to do anything. She still feels lucky. 12 years cancer free

Koda a previous day in his backyard our house and deck behind him he is looking at the camera tongue out.

We should all have been boycotting Chevron for years now. Maybe more will join us….

They fund ecocides and genocides

1 down 4 more to go, but isn’t this always where it stops. People cannot live under an apartheid racist system with a oppressive occupier. No one would expect anyone to do it, so don’t expect Palestinians to do it for very long without rebelling again…. A vicious cycle because humans long to be free

I am so glad it looks like you have a plan going forward to wear you out when you can’t be at your favorite place.

Last night we both had one hour separate walks. Mom has not been doing a good job keeping up with daily diaries.
This film shows a dragon that Eris walked past, we didn’t know that it moves. All of a sudden Eris Flinched, and jumped back 3 feet. She recovered well though, treats helped.

Yesterday I went to a sniff spot with Stella. We had a wonderful time.
Stella, I may have already posted this first photo, it’s so cute. It should be posted twice.
Koda

Here are the two happy pups on a log with a dragonfly emblem. They both have their front pocket. They look so happy after having run for over an hour.

Go to barking at the sandbox here he seemed to bark when Stella left as if something wasn’t right

Koda keeps digging at the spot we’ve said no, but he keeps sticking. I wonder if there’s truffles under there

Happy tongue out Tuesday everyone we’re back together after Eris had a sniff spot with our human brother today.

Eris really got her tongue out today #Tot

Here are the puppies are in their backyard back together again after Erin went with her brother to a sniff spot

Here it is with her big tongue from the sniff spot. She’s laying down in leaf litter. She’s wearing a orange harness.

Another photo of Eris in the meadow part of the sniff spot she’s in the sunlight she’s laying down by choice because she needs to rest. He runs with her the whole time and wears her out.

Koda barks at every oncoming car. If he can’t see them he listens and barks at the sound. I have tried white noise, air conditioning on high. He has good ears.

A little backyard time. still shots because mom was talking on her phone. 🙄

Harrison and Koda laying down Iris’s tongue is out she’s facing coda. It is in the pasture that he looks like he’s annoyed with her.

Here they are playing Koda a rolled over for her

Here comes to see me her tongue is out. She’s licking her lips. Coat is still laying down in the background.

“Thank you, sir” is a typo. It must’ve picked up something in the background.

Have a good week, Barbara

The next question is, why don’t I use aversives. I absolutely will not. I’m not going to use pain to stop barking. So don’t even suggest it.
And yes, I’ve said no barking. I’ve tried 1 million different things. I’ve tried giving him something to lick. Non-aversives won’t work.

We’ve also tried putting foam in between coda and the drivers said to muffle the sound and it doesn’t work at all. The decibels are in the 110 and he sustained that barking for the whole drive.

We’ve tried all kinds of things to stop Koda from barking in the car or at least to muffle the sound and nothing works, and it actually destroys your hearing because it’s so loud I wear shooting headphones with foam headphones, inserted in the shooting headphones.

Mondays are a really good day for us. It’s weekends that are kind of tough because so many people are out with their dogs off leash. Koda goes to a sniff spot with his girlfriend and tomorrow Eris goes to a sniff spot with her older brother, who doesn’t like Koda barking in the car.

The two puppies were happy that stopped raining yesterday and here they were getting a little bit of ball time with their family. Harris is standing up and she looks like she’s smiling. Kota is in the background. He has a ball in his mouth. It’s our backyard. they’re on play chips. There’s trees in the backyard.

Good morning everyone we went to the playfield last night and it’s cold out this morning. The weather has dipped down into the low 40s.

Here we are at the dark playfield the moon was showing it’s a little bit behind the clouds in this photo. We’re both wearing our red harness lights.

Here we are this morning just laying about while Mom has her coffee. The door is now closed. I don’t know how I feel about that. This is the first morning that mom says she cannot open the door because it is under 50 in the morning usually it is open as long as it is above 50. Iris is laying on a bed in the background and I am laying across the threshold of the door

Heartbreaking that the people who need the most care are the ones being abandoned.

It’s all about cruelty for them. 💔

Yeah, sadly, I am not an independent dog just wondering the woods. There are some words where I get to choose the paths, but this photo reminded Mom of the poem because of the yellow color of the grass.

I am so glad that you have a community of friends to help you at this time with the overwhelming grief and loss.

Oh Dear Penelope, I am so sorry to hear that. What a horrible time for you. You must just be devastated. I’m so sorry for your loss. 😭

Mom made me choose the left one -the right is private property. But just so you know, I always choose the path that I have never been on if given the option.
