That’s a REALLY good idea. I have some old stock I know it’s past its peak.

Good to hear about Bertil, Troll.

So how’s your pupper Harry? Prince still going strong Ted?

I’mma title this shot “Peace” :peace_symbol:

That photo proves how much smarter most other animals are compared to humans… taking any opportunity to just chill & relax.

Zuri is doing fine - just passed the 5 month mark, 24kg and teething so she is a bit of a handful at the moment. She started Wednesday morning puppy class at the Canberra Companion Dog Club three weeks ago.

It is a 3 hour round trip but she (like all dogs) needs the socialisation with other pooches and people. We also want to make a ride in the car a positive experience, which is working because last week she stood still for her travel harness and ‘self loaded’ :grinning:

If you want to get fancy with the frozen treats? We use these:

They are also (semi) self righting, so aren’t as messy because they tend not to ‘leak’, especially if you use them indoors.

Other than broth or stock, ours have always liked frozen natural, unsweetened yoghurt

Bertil managed a full walk yesterday evening and another one this morning. He got a full breakfast, divided into two servings, an hour apart. The food was mixed with the anti-nausea drug he was prescribed yesterday.
He seems active, but needs more sleep than normally, possibly due to that drug. But I guess it’s better to have a tired dog that eats and drinks…
He’s due for a check-up at the vet tomorrow.

Maybe he is suggesting that a trip to Tahiti might be in order?

Like the angle of the tail. He looks like a dog ready for some mischief!

Glad to see him up and about. :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey @Troll…how’s the hound hanging?

He seems fine! Thanks for asking.
Went to see the vet today and she said that there was no point in checking his liver values today as he showed no symptoms of pending liver failure. But, we scheduled a new check-up in a week, just to be 100% sure.

That’s excellent news!

You know, were Bertil a pilot, he would have just earned himself a callsign.

So, in celebration of his daring escape, I submit…

Another thing that I have been meaning to say, but keep forgetting.

That was quick thinking by your daughter. If she gets an allowance, I think she deserves a raise :wink:

In fact, a much coveted Ralph Lauren Sweater lands on our doorstep today, courtesy of DHL. :wink:
