on:Although some of you already know about this, I´m so excited to share this news. After some consideration, we adopted another dog, a little sister for Dot! Her name is Lia, she is three years old and a bodeguero, the same breed as our Dot. She is a bundle of energy and a real sweetheart. Dot is starting to get used to having her around. Like all new parents, we have taken tons of pictures.
Having fun at the beach.
You can be sure there will be more pictures!

on:Hi Readers! Dot here. I just turned five years old. I had a little party and got two of my favourite bones and a cup cake. I´m one lucky dog.
I have a good life here on the Costa Blanca of Spain since mom and dad adopted me. I thought I would share some of my favourite things with you, because mom said I could.
Thanks for reading about me and my good life.
Dot the Dog

on:The youngest member of my immediate family, my great-granddaughter, just turned ten. Ten! How did that happen? She is an amazing kid, wise beyond her years, kind, smart, funny, hardworking and an animal lover. Even though I don’t see her often, I have a close bond with her. She even goes to the school I attended all those years ago, and she is an Amanda fan. I spoke to her on her birthday, which made my day. Here are just a few pictures of her through the first ten years of her life. Some taken by me and others by her mom and other family members.

on:I can’t believe it has been over four months since we welcomed our dog, Dot into our lives. It’s as if she has always been here. Although she was quite nervous at first, she has settled into living in an urban setting. I wrote about driving to the Andalucian mountains to get her here.
Like parents of a newborn, we have taken tons of pictures of her. Here are a few. Believe me, it was hard to narrow it down.
You can see she is quite a character and keeps us busy. Whatever did we do without her?

on:It was Andy’s last weekend with us. We were invited for tea at a friend’s place where he had an enjoyable time and made some new friends.
We enjoyed our tea and freshly made cranberry scones, with homemade jams, under the lovely grape arbour.
Andy made friends with Odie the cat and Blue the dog
He also explored my friend’s wonderful garden where he met pixies and another cat who didn’t move.
Andy and Monkey the cat finally started to get friendly. Monkey was even willing to share her toy with him!
The time has come for Andy to go home. He has had a good time on the west coast of Canada, but even armadillos get homesick. We are packing him up as we pack up to leave for a seventeen-day trip to Europe. You won’t be hearing much from me for the next three weeks. I will miss all my blogging friends, but there will be reports of our travels and pictures when we return.
Thanks for following Andy’s adventures with us and thanks Lenore Diane for letting Andy be our guest for the past few weeks. I can’t wait to hear of his next exploits.
