🐾 Our first week together ❤️

I've started writing this post on Sunday, our fourth day together. As most of you will know, Koa came to live with me last Wednesday, April 22nd. The first week, we sure had our challenges. Me, getting to know Koa better. Koa, learning about his new environment, and all the new rules... Me😎, adjusting my routine as much as I can to suit Koa's better. And of course Koa, needing to adapt to the routine that I think he needs for now... Of course I tried to take snaps and vids. Sometimes it can be harder, because it's just me, so no one that can capture some moments where I am interacting with my little dude. 😊 Koa doesn't like resting a lot, he likes to practice his Pavarotti sounds, especially during the night... I keep hoping that I'm doing right by him, but even after two previous Labradors, I still wonder at times if I shouldn't be doing things differently... Especially when Koa is singing 🎤 the song of his people, it just hurts me to hear him in distress like that. Even when I know I've cared for him, all his needs have been met, and it's the idea of "resting" that's upsetting him... This will be a longer "visual-style" post, with a mix of pictures and videos from Koa's first week in his new home... 🏡 […]

🌟 Expectations 🐾

As I start writing this, it's only one more night till the coming of Koa. I have tried to be prepared as best as I could. Tried to puppy proof things I the home. Tried to order enough food and snacks for him. Tried to get enough toys for him to play with. I got a new harness and leash, and a longer training leash. I cleaned things as best as I could. And... I tried to read as much as I could to "revive" my knowledge again. A change of my routine, to adjust to Koa. He is used to a schedule now, and I don't want to disturb it too much, when his whole world is already turned upside-down. I have canceled some appointents, I won't go to the gym for a while, I have asked kind folks to "puppy-sit" Koa, so that I can go to some appointments, which are too important to cancel. I am excited. I an anxious. And, I am also a bit scared... […]

Busy brain, many emotions

The last few weeks, or months even, have brought many experiences, emotions, and some anxiety as well. The recovery of my hip surgeries isn't going as I hoped it would go. Towards the end of 2025, it seemed to be going better, bit by bit. But then, it started to hurt more again. I started to feel more restricted. And with the weather and Bas happening in January and February, my normal routine changed as well... On February 26th, I was informed that the pups had been born, but the second girl had not made it. But, with a bit of luck (and maybe some help from my little star 🌟 up above), a male pup became available. So, since then, I've been preparing loads for the coming of my new boy. A boy! Who also turned out to be an alpha, so that means a double challenge for me. I've never raised a pup on my own, let alone an alpha male... And then... I learned that I needed another surgery soon. This time, to (hopefully) repair the osteoarthritis in my right hand... […]
