It's a lovely sunny day here on the Black Isle. Blue skies but very🥶. Think I might just admire the sunshine from inside!

Sigh. Just because you’ve got a zoom call coming up does not mean I’m wanting to wake up from 💤 or go for a walk or eat breakfast.

Happy to report that my tummy is currently behaving, I’m enjoying my walks & BH is being generous with the treats. It’s not so bad being an old dog, even if it’s getting harder to jump up onto the sofa!

The snow is melting (but still enough to scamper in), the skies were blue, we had a friend come to stay. All in all, a good day 😊

I hope everyfur had a good Christmas. Me, not so much, as my tummy was poorly again. But it’s better now, I’m pleased to say. 2024 was a year of finding my paws in a new place. I’ve decided I like the beach & the woods here. We even have local🐬!

I’ve had another bad tummy day. Sometime I really don’t like my tummy! Anyway, finally, by afternoon I’d done the “nasty poo” (don’t ask) & by 5 I was ready to eat. So all good now…

BH is nervous about posting this in case it’s a jinx but I’m happy to report that my tummy is behaving, I’m enjoying walks and I haven’t pee’d on the sofa again. Yet. At 15, I think that’s a lot to celebrate!!

I’ve had a rough couple of tummy days since my birthday so only catching up now. Things have improved thankfully… Also had my Librela injection this week so I’ve been skipping around the woods like a pupster!!

I’m FIFTEEN today! This was my special tea. Took me around 30 seconds to demolish it 😊

Good day today though I had to go for acupuncture. Lots of needles which is not great but 2 positives… 1. I get a treat for each needle going in :-) 2. I was skipping about the woods at Reelig Glen like a puppy when we went for a walk afterwards so obv it works!

Been a bit quiet cos I’ve been having tummy problems. Yesterday I was out for toilet walks almost every hour :-( However BH has persuaded me to take meds (smelly salmon pate helped!) & I’m much better today. Currently whining for (even) more treats!

@btculter.bsky.social Hey Culter, did you see we’ve moved north at last! And to BlueSky :-) We looked from Perth to Pitlochry to Beauly to Strathpeffer, but eventually went east to the Black Isle. It’s lovely, and there’s a beach!

Happy to report no tummy issues today - yay And… a proper walk in the snow! I kept breaking into a run - not like me normally these days - made me feel like a pupster again!

Ooooh, proper snow!

Thanks to all for good wishes. I started to feel better by lunchtime after some very nasty 💩. Much better afternoon with a nice walk by the beach with some amazing crashing waves and a snoozy evening.

Not doing too well today, pals. I've been doing so well with my tummy for months (6!) with no retching or colitis, but last week it all started again. I thought I was over it but it's a very unhappy tummy today. Think I'm just going to zzz for a while...

BH has decided that it's the perfect time to plant more bulbs in the garden. She's already planted 1038, only 50 to go! The next 25 are going in here. And no, I'm not allowed to dig them up though some of the local cats get away with digging in the there :-(
