Well it turned out to be a case of Lars forgetting that airplanes were fun to go on, because on our return flight over the weekend, he was much better. Aside from a little restlessness at the end of the flight, he did great, which made me feel a lot less guilty for putting him [...]

Whenever it was Luther’s birthday, I would allow him to indulge in a human delicacy of my choice, one that I was sure he would approve of. No little piece of cheese, no little chunk of meat, I’m talking a full fledged treat that if you asked him, would be worth an entire 364 days [...]

So every now and again I like to put Bar on the scale to get his weight to make sure he is not getting to, ahem, big or to, ahem, small. To accomplish this task, I must weigh myself, get my own weight and repeat the process with Bar in my arms to get our [...]

Life can be a bitch sometimes no doubt about it, and just when you think that you’re having a bad day you hear of somebody else whose day seems just that little bit worse. I recently had to let go of my own Luther and just the other day, heard that a friend of my [...]

So Lars the energetic one, has developed an undeniable love for his bed. He spends bountiful amounts of time on it, and if I ever need to find him for whatever reason, that is the first and only place I need to look. Don’t get me wrong, he is the furthest thing from a lazy [...]

Well I have not posted an update on Luther for quite some time now, mainly because there is nothing really positive to report. He is progressively deteriorating, and as he lies at my feet gnawing on his garlic bone, I cant help wondering if he is at the end of his road. He has undergone [...]

So right now Lars is crashed out, lying at my feet. It is not very often that LarsBar is crashed out anywhere, but he has been very active of late thus he is a tired little dude. We’ve been taking him for some runs with us, and he is totally in love with the whole [...]

So as of late, Luther, my retired guide has been a little under the weather. Problems for him began after I got home and found him lying amid a variety of contents he had taken the time to remove from a backpack, including protein bar wrappers, jewelry, gum, etc. Ever since that day, he has [...]

Well it is official, Lars, my guide dog does know when it is ok to take his foot off the gas pedal. Generally he is a little demon in harness pulling all the time and very hard, but as of late he has relented some what. It is very hot here, and he is finally [...]
