Glad you posted, I was thinking about you today, hoping all was OK.
Miles: A Rescue
-
Oh, I'm so so sorry. I can feel Miles' pain! I've gotta take those meds, too, sometimes. AGING STINKS! I stayed up late last night and read all of the stories of your 'kids'….....'specially loved the pics and clips......I feel like I know them!! I hope you continue to update us on all the ups and downs of your life with Lexi and Miles. Love to you all!

Our Border Collie, who is just turned 10 back in April, has gotten stuck half way up/down the stairs before. He without a doubt has arthritis, but it always concerns me since Border Collies are known to have hip issues as they get older.
Medication makes a big difference. Hopefully Miles continues to respond well to the meds.
-
Hope the medication works for Miles. I love the pics of them both chasing the water hose. He looks so much better than when you first got him, what a difference with his ears.
-
Wish the best with the med's Miles and look forward to lots pictures of running and jumping.

Well, it's day two with the meds… My husband thinks we should half his dose because "he was so well behaved when his hips weren't working"...LOL (joking, of course)... But Miles is responding well to the meds and this morning he got all frisky running around the sofa before getting in his crate-- which is more his speed. It's like he knows he's going to have to get in the box and so he zips around and gets out his energy before settling down. hahaha... And so far this evening, he's doing stairs and seemingly back to his old self. YEAH!!
And thanks to everyone for all their comments, suggestions, and love over the years. I love you guys!!

Great news. It is so hard to see your dog stiff and miserable, when they clearly have more run left in their system. Sounds like Miles is back..watch out..lol
-
That is great news so very happy you have your Miles back to himself. Great days ahead clear run way.

We've been welcoming fall to our area. The weather's been soooo nice lately. I put the autumn wreath up. And the kids put their fall collars on. Miles has his Indian corn collar and Lexi's is pumpkins and cornicopias.
Yeah!
-
What a great picture. I really like it..
-
And I see your bulldog is wearing his fall football sweater. ;):D
Lovely pic…
-
I love that picture! SO cute!
-
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the picture! Not only are you and your Basenjis stunningly beautiful, but Uga in his "spirit wear" brought a tear to my eye. I owned an Uga offspring. He was the most loving and adorable dog ever. He's since passed to the rainbow bridge many years ago, but I still miss him. That's where my "snorky" name comes from….it's the sound he made when he walked, ate, slept, etc...... Love those Bulldogs:D
-
Oh… the bulldog's getting a costume this Halloween. Just wait... I already bought him a pet costume from ebay. Yesss...
hehehehe... He's going to have a witch hat and a cape!! No telling what the kids will be this year... We're still enjoying the pics from Halloweens from previous years... Behold:
-
Thanks for all the sweet comments. With regard to the UGA Bulldog, he's from Lowe's in Athens. They come with red sweaters painted on them. My husband embellished him by painting the Georiga "G" on the chest.
Uga is the best mascot around. Hands down. Unless someone out there has a Basenji mascot… -
The fall picture is great and they are so pretty. Halloween pictures are super they look so cute all dressed up. Thanks you for sharing put a light in my day been gray and rain here all day.

I love the mummy and egyptian one, did they eat any of the paper..shoot I like the bee one too. Great costumes, great looking dogs.
-
Lexi is actually wrapped in small strips of white sheets, not toilet paper…haha... She didn't want to cooperate with the photo shoot though because it was cutting into her nap time! Miles was pretty good with his headpiece we made for him. And he didn't mind his wrist bands either. Too bad it got wet and ruined in the pet parade that year (we raised money for homeless dogs). I think Miles should be a hot dog this year. hahaha... except there's probably no bun that is big enough to fit around him.
-
Not to sure about the hot dog but does sound cute. My daughter just looked at Halloween pictures and fell in love with both of them. I can see using white sheets and not toilet paper.

It's been a while- we've been so busy since we've moved. Anyway– Here are some recent pics... Enjoy!
Lexi uses three pillows to make herself a nest.
Miles just wads up the blankets.
Right in the middle of our king size bed.
Miles loves the fireplace in the new house.
Where else is there to be on a cold day??
Lexi watches the first snowfall of the season; the first in the new house.
Neighborhood watch.
Lexi's Christmas Tree photo shoot. No lie, she jumped on the chair on her own and begged me to take pics of her.
She is my little basenji supermodel! lol
And Miles in the snow.
Ahhhh, Christmas!!

what FANTASTIC pictures. Merry Christmas!
