That's soo sweet that Diz is so protective of her family that she is always keeping her eyes out for everyone!!!  Unfortunately i don't know much about Pyrs, but i do know that from what you've said you've got a sweetie on your hands!

Poor Sophie, You've ruined the surprise. :-X She was just looking up all the phone numbers of your friends for your suprise party. Do you have any idea how hard it is to turn pages without opposible thumbs?! ;)
I tried, sophie

Hi everyone.  It's us!  I swear we're still alive.  And like i said in the title, we've neglected our BPO for quite some time, and we understand if you all want to shun us! 

It's funny... does anyone ever feel this way?  That it's busy but not really at the same time?  I feel like i'm always doing something for the most part but am not really busy... weird!

Update on Fumble... he's doing well.. i'm really quite t-o'ed because i'm working on a homecooked diet with him.  I'm working with a pet nutritionist and the first diet she gave us gave him diarrhea and now the poor guy is back on Orijen fresh fish and i'm keeping my fingers crossed that the staph or ear infections don't come back.  I've contacted the nutritionist but have yet to hear from her in a while and am A. starting to get worried if somethings happened to her, and B. if not A then peaved because it's been a while and i want my dog to get better! 

But other than that, he seems to be doing well.  Still rolling around on the floor, yapping up a storm, and whispering till he's blue in the face!  He's been spending his days out in his kiddie pool.  Go figure, we live less than a mile from the beach and yet we hang out on the back deck just to stay with him in his pool on the nice days!  lol!  Hey, i can still smell the ocean! 

Here are some pictures of the big guy... the first ones are fluffy mess becuase he still had his undercoat in.  I trimmed him on Friday night and then the pool pictures are his new do (still in progress, man that guys got a lot of undercoat!).

Hi everyone!  I swear we're all still alive!!  still here!  we've been really busy, stacy started waitressing a while back but now that the summer season has begun she's super busy working doubles almost 3 times a week.  I've been busy with work and am actually going on my first "business trip" to hot-lanta in 2 weeks.  Then we've been busy keeping up wiht my parents who are in the process of moving, and there's been some health problems with my mom, but she's getting better.

the fumbs is doing well.  he's just getting over a MAJOR staph infection.  my vet said that he spoke to a dermatology vet and he said that there really was only one drug that would really work.  i can't spell it, but when i went to pick it up, i asked the vet tech if there were crushed diamonds in it.  lol.  i think the majority of the cost was due to fumble's size, which is now up to 175 lbs. he was on 200 pills, 5 in the morning and 5 at night, now we're at the end of the second bottle, so i've got to go for a re-check.  i'm thinking about even doing a home cooked diet at this point.  i've been feeding him orijen and that's a clean diet, but i'm thinking i might need to try something else.  but we'll see what the vet says.

but i just wanted everyone to know that the fumbs is still breathin and alive!  I'll take some pictures of him this weekend at the beach so you can all see his giant sizeness.  lol.  and his paws still look big for his body!  if he gets any larger i will definately be suprised, but with him ANYTHING'S POSSIBLe! lol!

I hope everyone else is doing well.  I'll try to get on to BPO more often, i definately miss my internet family!

Oh poor Zeus!!  but, you're not the worst pet owner!!!  the worst pet owners are the ones who absolutely neglect their pets and don't take care of them...  Zeus has a fantastic family... it's just "luck of the draw" that he's got some health problems.  Fumble wasn't even 2 yet and he tore both of his acl's, had numerous staph and ear infections, and then this past fall had to have a gastropexy (thank god it wasn't emergency)... but i always say "in the big word of destiny, i got fumble becuase someone up there knew that iwould take care of him come h*ll or high water"... You just keep doing what you're doing and lovin on Zeus and that makes you an A+ parent!!!

Give Zeus our love! and fumble sends drooly kisses and tells him he's been there! and it's just a matter of time before the klutzy newf gets the right foot in front of the other without injury!

fumble is a giant newfie.. so i always used to think he was huge.  but i still do the rib test.  as long as you can feel the ribs without having to push in, or without them protruding obviously, it's a good weight.  just enough to feel them!  that's how i test, i'm not sure if that's "right" but as my theory is "if it ain't broke don't fix it!"

fumble sleeps on his back with this front legs extended to the nth degree.  i've always wondered how it's comfortable to sleep with everything enxtended, especially in mid air.. but he seems to love it! and so Arky as it seems!  gotta love those crazy silly newfies!

the fumbs isn't much of a kisser, unless he's really excited to see you.  most of the time he will nibble on your ear lobes or just come up real close to your face and nose you... we call that his lazy man's kiss!
