The life and times of our two dogs.
When I took this image of Enzo relaxing at the window it seemed familiar so I did some research and came across this photo of Yuki from 2015. Of course that was taken long before remodels and paint, but it is the same window. I’ve always tried to keep a dog bed there in memory... Continue Reading →
Besties These two get along, and have gotten along, so well since the beginning which makes us rather proud parents of these boys. Even if one thinks he’s Charlie Brown.

Yuki's cancer has returned. After about 5 months of celebrating Yuki's successful journey through chemotherapy to fight and put his Lymphoma into remission, July's discovery that his lymph nodes were swelling again was very upsetting. We had noticed in June/July that his skin problems were returning and Mom then noticed his lymph nodes increasing in... Continue Reading →
I'm not going to string this out. Simply put, Yuki is CANCER FREE! Recently, Yuki went in for his final exam and "re-staging" after finishing his 20 weeks of chemotherapy. They did lots of tests that day, blood, ultrasounds, etc., and it all looked good. They also took a sample from one of his lymph... Continue Reading →
Yuki is now on his last round of chemotherapy, and soon we'll know if all this was any help in extending his life. We are anxious to know if all these treatments will give us more time with our beloved pet, but they also made us realize that every moment with our dogs is a gift and that their presence in our life, and the affect they have on our lives, should never be take for granted.
