Finally some good news!


The vet took a new blood test to check for rabies antibodies in September, and today I got the results back and it's official - Liska has developed antibodies! Sure I can't take her home for Christmas anyway, but this means her body isn't resistant to the vaccination. She'll be able to travel with me to Norway in the summer!

Also, we are getting ready for Nitra this week-end, where Liska is going to sweep everyone off their feet in the dog show we're attending. So tonight, she is going to get the royal treatment. I'm gonna give her a nice bath with her new shampoo, clip her claws and brush her fur until it's as shiny as pure gold... Wish us luck, and cross all your limbs this Saturday!

Sick October nights


Me and Liska have both been really sick tonight, and I'm pretty sure it has something to do with food we ate. But then, come to think of it, we hardly ever eat the same food. Liska isn't allowed to eat food from my table, and I very seldom get so hungry that I need to feast on her ProPlan pellets! Today has been such a weird day for both of us. No long walks, we've just been flat out on the bed both of us until now, when Liska finally got to get out of the house for a run with Halldor. I cross my paws for the success of it. And I'm sure it's going to be fine. Liska absolutely loves him to the point where I almost get jealous! And if she behaves, maybe he can be talked into doing it again..!

The last time I wrote a post here, I was going to tell you about our new puppy friend who moved in with us this autumn - Dagmar. She's a beautiful mixture of Cocker Spaniel and Spitz. A real heart-breaker! Liska is behaving like the ideal big sister towards her. Dagmar is Christina's new dog who's been living in our happy household now for two months. Check out the really sweet picture of her and Liska together from a trip we made a week ago!
