Pupdate The start of the month saw the raspberries coming out on the bushes in our garden, so Milo (in particular) got busy harvesting what he could reach (and barking at any birds that dared to come nearby). Max seems to be back to normal after his back trouble last month, and Milo has finished […]

Pupdate It was Milo’s 5th birthday on the 12th, which meant a post about how he’s getting on. Sadly Max has also needed to visit the vets, with (we think) back ache, which might be the dreaded Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD). He’s been on reduced activity, so shorter walks, but thankfully seems pretty much back […]

Pupdate We’ve (finally) had some warm and sunny days, so the coats have mostly been off for walks :) Bath Half $daughter0 is in her final year of her degree at Bath, and after getting into running last year she decided to run the Bath Half with some friends. That provided a good excuse for […]

Pupdate It’s been a pretty dank February, so the coats have mostly stayed on for walks. But the boys have been enjoying their usual doggy mischief. Milo is now half way through his 4th chemo protocol, and the second half has previous been easier as the pace slows down to vet visits every two weeks. […]

Pupdate The New Year had barely begun and we had a cold snap and some snow. Milo’s back in remission thankfully, though there have been a few hiccups with his treatment this time around. Some of that’s expected (low neutrophils), but the vets struggling to get canulas in due to vein scarring is new and […]

Pupdate It’s been quite dry over the Christmas break, which has encouraged some longer than usual walks that the boys have enjoyed. After a scan at the start of the month Milo has now almost completed the first cycle of his 4th modified ‘CHOP’ chemotherapy protocol. As before, low neutrophils mean we’re a little behind […]

Pupdate It’s been pretty cold and wet, so the boys are needing to wear their coats outside. Milo had a scan at the start of the month. Initially things were looking good, and the plan was to stretch out the next visit to three months time :) But then the technician noticed some lymph node […]

Pupdate The central heating went on a few days into the month, and it was also soon time for the boys to be wearing their coats out.

Pupdate Autumn is upon us, and it was a wet start to the month, but that hasn’t stopped the boys from being enthusiastic about their walks. Clear scan Milo had another scan at the start of the month, and once again it was clear :) That means we’re now on the longest stretch of remission […]
