CLEO GUARDING HER TENNIS BALL

WAITING FOR HER TENNIS BALL

Cleo, waiting as patiently as she can for me to toss her tennis ball!

A SEMI FUR-LESS CLEO

Cleo had to go for an ultrasound of the chest and abdomen last week which meant that she had to be shaved almost completely from her chest all the way down to her abdomen... She's not very pleased with her new look and neither am I.

The good news is that her heart is functioning great! So we are all quite relieved. I think the raw food must be doing her a whole lot of good... The not so good news is that she has some minor irregularities in her spleen and bladder.

Dr Prem doesn't think that we need to worry too much about it though. So hopefully she will be right as rain after a couple of weeks on cranberry concentrate tablets.

In the mean time, I really hope that her fur grows back soon... The last time she had her chest shaved, it took ages before all the fur grew back nicely...

CLEO'S 8TH BIRTHDAY PARTY

Cleo celebrated her 8th birthday a couple of weeks ago with her pal Shalom (who turned 9) and she had a blast at her birthday party. Here are some pictures of the party...

This is terrible, but I always get confused between Jiro and Ayako - and they're supposed to be 2 different breeds!

Rocky with Jiro and Ayako - I still can't tell which is which :-(

CLEO CHILLING WITH LILY

Cleo chilling with Lily (our latest rescue). Lily has come a long way from being the scrawny and scared dog that she was when we picked her up. She has put on weight and is now a loving and playful kid. She's still slightly skittish with motorcycles and is a little suspicious (although curious) with new people.

MY BABY CLEO...

Found some of Cleo's puppy pictures! Can't believe that she will be 8 this year. I have no idea where the time has gone...

CLEO IN THE PARK!

After writing a pretty depressing post in my other blog, I thought I needed to post something a bit more cheerful...

So here are some pictures of Cleo having a fabulous time in the park last Tuesday...
