It's a dog's lifeSavvy Chocolate Labrador's dogblog

Yep it’s that time of year, weather warming up so I now have my Advantix monthly (in the colder months it is given every 6 weeks) – I never have fleas, ticks or lice.  It is easy to apply – well if you know me you will realise I am not the easiest dog to deal with, so mouth end gets bits of food to keep me occupied – yes this is a 2 person job – whilst I get the odd treat at the mouth end, the rest of me gets treated with blobs of Advantix.  Sometimes I have to look round to see what is happening but then I can’t take my eyes off food so that distraction really works.  In the US you can buy it through Amazon.  In the UK it is prescription only, so pay a visit to the vet.  Otherwise Frontline is an alternative.

When they go out I must not encourage Zeus to sneak into their bedroom to play on THEIR bed. Pillows on the floor, a disrupted duvet and our toys seem to give the game away.

I must not sneak into the bedroom and go to sleep on THEIR bed, I have my own.

The famous Myrtos Beach, Kefalonia – in winter.  I have it all to myself!

Zeus the Jack Russell

Zeus (pronounced Zeffs in Greek) is a Jack Russell and he doesn’t like water….ha!  He is my best friend, well no, I am his best friend, my mum and dad are my best friends he just tags along!

Me, again, in clear sea with a stick…heaven!

I must not wake my mum up with my cold nose.  Just because I stand and stare at her to see if she is awake and she is not, she is still sleeping….but she loves me so I can put my head under the covers and give her a big lick on her nose….or her ear!  I want my breakfast…please!

I must shake my wet coat before I come into the house.

Chocolate labrador loves attention.

Here I am, yes that’s me…happy dog!
