Well, if this a new (or old rerun) here's my Jilly Bean again. She was born on Valentine's Day, 2016 which makes her 10 months old.

SANDY, your advice is always welcome. I don't give her raw hide based on advice given when she first came to live with me. However Jilly does have a long slim chewy, that is shaped like a cigar or stick. They are made from hardened potatoes. To add to your advice our vet also said not to give dogs those made from antler…

Missy Marie looks a little like a brown Jilly. Is she a chihuahua mix as well? Sweet face and if she's anything like Jilly she will bring you much joy MARIE. Congratulations and welcome Missy to the Sneaker dog members group. Jilly is slowly on the mend after the vet visit, still a little subdued but eating, a good sign. I…

Our day started badly. Jill and I were up all night because she was vomiting mucus and blood. At 3 am it changed to diarrhea with blood. Mike came over before going to work and we rushed to the veterinary clinic. The vet doesn't think she's got a blockage thank the lord and she's on antibiotics for a week. So, like George,…

So sorry LIN. You were a very good friend. Anne.

Happy "left overs" day, and belated birthday good wishes to Jerry. So pleased George is feeling his old self again JACKIE, and talking of dogs: Wow MARIE, lots of going for walks in your future because all dogs, even little ones like Jilly, need at least 2 good walks a day for exercise. Welcome Missy to the Sneaker dog…

I think I've just experienced the best Christmas ever. Just my two sons, 1 DIL and 1 grandson. For dinner: We had sweet kale salad, turkey, stuffing, roast potatoes, Brussels sprouts, peas/beans/corn, gravy, homemade Christmas pudding with Brandy sauce, and English trifle. All very old country traditional. Then we played…

Merry merry day everyone! About to stuff the poor old turkey so must away, but enjoy the happiest day of the year! ❤Anne and Jilly Bean.

JACKIE, I went to bed last night thinking about poor little George, and am indeed horrified that he's picked up a nasty bug, poor little chap. BUT you won't believe this, I awoke at 2:00 am to the sounds of Jilly throwing up in her dog bed. Even worse it had a touch of blood in it, but it seemed mainly to be white pieces…

LIN, you are one wise lady staying away from the crowded retirement reception. You can guarantee there'll be one or two less-than-wise and inconsiderate folk spreading their germs around! There always is, and you will be vulnerable if your sinuses are acting up. The library books, the colouring, the movies and maybe some…

Christmas dinner

I know MARIE. Just pulling your leg, I've a weird sense of humour! Forgive me, Anne.

Can't resist MARIE, are we talking bottoms or food processors? If it's bottoms, me too! Anne

Fresh water

Bad luck just before Christmas Sandy. Very sorry. Anne.

Happy Solstice, Happy start to Yuletide everyone, Anne

That was so thoughtful MARIE, making your mom her favourite pie! I bet she really appreciated it. Hope you are keeping well after such a trying few months, love, Anne.

Good morning all. It's absolutely beautiful outside. Turquoise sky, with streaks of pink clouds, white snow. It couldn't be prettier. AND we are promised a bit of a warm up. My cold has passed it's peak, Jill will get her long walks again, maybe minus even the despised pink coat which I'm sure she thinks is for sissies. In…

I guess Shirley and I live as far south as we can in Canada. Lol. B) B)

No SANDY I didn't get Jilly little boots! She even wriggles her legs out of her pink winter coat. AND she hates squatting in the snow for a pee. Can't say I blame her! We are now 19.4 Fahrenheit LIN. Balmy. Anne.

Sweet tooth

JACKIE, just a quick note, but will you tell your friend from me that I think she is truly amazing and she looks absolutely wonderful. It can't have been an easy journey so she is right to be very proud of herself. An inspiration indeed to anyone about to embark on the same journey. Good luck with the outside wash drying.…

Explanation SANDY. Darren is my neighbour. He stood on my doorstep while we agreed on a fair price for snow clearing because I wouldn't let him do a huge drive with a shovel for nothing. He came back from a job in England with a cold and I got it just talking on the doorstep! Mark is my youngest son at 52 and he's married…
