She's Perfect

“She’s perfect,” said Juno’s Physical Torturer, Therapist, Mme. Gauthier. She noticed Juno’s walking gate was a perfect long, stress-free stride. Juno rolls her eyes. “Sibes don’t come any other way lady.”

 
The Return of Juno's Inner-Cracker

One of the things I love about Loki is his ability to go from zero to completely crackers in 3.5 seconds–for no reason. He’ll suddenly bust into circle sprints:  tail and butt tucked under, ears flat back, mouth wide open, eyes dialed wild and paws in full-throttle. Yesterday, Juno busted out the crack-a-tude too– for no apparent reason: Oh yeah, her body language meets all [...]

Cross Roads

Sometimes in life your journey reaches a cross roads. And if you’re lucky, you have the support of a good friend and family to help you understand the choices. Or at least to help provide a pleasant distraction from the decision that is looms ahead.

 
Look Who's Cracker Now

Rarely, do I ever catch Juno looking like or acting like a goofball, or worse, cracker. She’s much too sly for the camera to catch her looking less than perfect. But every now and then, I’m able to catch her behaving just as cracked out as Loki, who is pretty much cracker whenever he’s not [...]

Priorities

Juno gave me another heart attack this week. Yesterday I let her play zoomies with Loki in the outer yard while I changed clothes to take them for a walk. They zoomied for quite a while and then happily went for a walk. When we got back from our walk, they both plopped in my [...]

Juno's Jodhpurs

Following up on yesterday’s post on why Juno will be riding in rather than pulling a sleigh, this week, we found out that Juno has hip dysplasia. On a scale of 1-10, it’s a 6. This of course is independent of the illness she had last month with an unexplained fever. You see, when the doctors [...]

Monday Bandwagon

“It’s Monday? What’s a Monday? Is it a free treat?”

 
Juno Belle Jodhpurs Exposed!

The puperazzi struck again! Somepup’s got to pay for the medical expenses this pretty gal has accumulated! She may as well work for it.

 
Jodhpurs is in Da Hooouuuse!

Juno’s home! When she came into the private room at the hospital yesterday, she acted almost normal. She jumped on me, licked me at least 87 times and play bowed about 16 times. She cried happy cries. She knew she was coming home. Nurses at VMS continue to rave on about her wonderful behavior, sweet [...]

Puzzling Jodhpurs

Mr. Wild Dingo, Loki and I visited Juno Belle Jodhpurs on Saturday. Her temperature was down to 101-102-ish and she seemed alert.  I showed up first and took her for a walk and then Mr. Wild Dingo showed up. She actually wagged at him, as if she liked him or something. I left Loki in the car [...]
