Clicking Mad

just wanted to give a bit of an update: He's still doing pretty good, still happy enough, though the little lumps have multiplied quite considerably in his leg, both on top of the biggest lump on his hock, and in new places up and down that same leg. It looks really ugly. And he has been holding it up a little more than he was a week or so ago, hopping, and ever so slightly limping on it. He's also had a recent check-up with the vets and they expect that the lumps will become nasty and ulcerate before it gets too painful into his bones, which may sound bad, but at least he's still not in any real pain, except for the very recent slight limping, he hasn't shown any signs of pain. Late last year I bought him a little red wagon so I could take him to the park with the pack, we had 1 good go, trouble with some pieces missing, then he didn't want to ride in it, then finally I gave it another shot, and he was happy to ride, so took him out early last weekend down to the park, a chance to potter around, then back in for the ride home because it was so early the light wasn't the best, but he went for a little dip in the park puddle (after the heavy rains) ~~ and just because here's a couple of favs from last month that you may have missed, hidden in the Jan Challenge thread nick-named "Texa-cocoa" :D

hey thanks guys for the comments gosh, poor Bob (is that at Kepala?) great shot of Marlo Helen - such a great idea, even if it isn't completely original, love your version, such wonderful colours and action :D Bronson is perfect in that hat ;) classic Zero on the slide! anniek - I think I want to come back as one of your dogs - trips to the beach ;) dogsportsobsessed - great photos! all beautiful whiskedaway - dallys are the best ;) love seeing your guys playing together! Halo looks like she can hold her own flyingduster - she does look a little sad, maybe just the head-tilt wonderful playful photo of Maggie - you do well with her dark colour and eyes :D flickrmac - funny dorky shot, I take heaps like that of Chester, he doesn't have the wonderful length of ears though like Louie. Banjo sure looks attentive. kirislin - I like your experimentation, I like how dreamy it turned out, and lotsa legs catherineb - cleaning his own teeth? oh happy Riley with the ball love it ;) ava looks great with the graffiti wall sweet sleepy Asti ;) love week 4 and 5 of Poppie - looks like she has a great fun time hmm Spencer's doing the old "if I don't look it ain't happening" trick to me 6/52 - "I like to get wet" (another Lotus in action and black and white, but down by the river this week) Chester 6/52 - unsure which to go with, the ever so pretty posing shot or the story-telling "water is only for drinking" shot (Chester really doesn't like getting wet in any way) ... funny boy I'm leaning towards the pretty shot as always :p

well you never know if you don't ask ... I'll be there

gorgeous Tangerine Dream just gorgeous!

Well come on then, if you told me you didn't take your camera I wouldn't believe you. why of course I took the camera ... but sorry ... part of the reason why I will never be able to get through 365 ... I just don't maintain a very quick turn-a-round I'll have to get back to you on my water loving yellow labradors simple pleasure :p anniek - love your sunrise at the beach! what an awesome way to start every morning! dustangel - bit confused by what's going on in your 1st shot there, but I love them both shell - your beach photos are brilliant! I particularly enjoy the 1 you used for 365 colliepaws - love the walkies everyone

brilliant photos! another who has admired your photos in the past, and hope you get that camera out more often sorry to hear of Zeus' passing, so glad he got his last holiday trip!

very cool kirislin - I went down to the Werribee river this morning to see where it was at

thanks Lotus is a classic ... I think Chester must be getting lessons from Chazer, he's terrible at trying to get any "action" shots of him at the park anymore, his nose is constantly glued to the ground!

Marlo looks gorgeously soft beautiful pup sarzc! Bob looks like he was comfortable, until someone interrupted him great location for Spencer! like the idea of a castle with the stone love the colours with Lottie! Riley sure looks into his new toy Halo is so tiny and fluffy cute! such a good patient Ava, if she doesn't look it isn't happening Asti is so cute in the suitcase! Zero looks like such a happy fella ~~~~~~~~ just a couple of park photos this week, in black&white and different toning which is gonna show awfully next to each other, but oh well ;) Lotus 5/52 Chester 5/52

oh bugger! I was thinking about this last night and that was the only thing I could come up with, I reckon it is something to do with The Beatles for sure ;) Maybe the album covers? the give-away for me was 1969 and that Chazer is walking off the edge of the frame of his street but I'm not sure how this ties in with the other shot/s

okay, great photos all, I've gone back a little way, though not all the way, sorry if I missed you this week/last week, but I'm sure I'll get a chance throughout the year I love James - eye-booger or not catherineb - what's your dog's name? kelpie? Asti - like that she couldn't wait to dig in I love Quinn with the stick! Bob sure is a proud Aussie - great shot!! kirislin - what's wrong with Puck's foot? is it just the 3rd toe at the funny angle? ouch Ava welcome sheena - great effort with the branch shot! so who are all the rest of the pack? I like Bindi's jump into the pool lucky Morty at the beach gosh, I love Riley, beautiful eyes kuma - great paws! cowboy looks a little sad to be behind bars - I hope he was forgiven ;) Spencer! oh yes, gorgeous face Great shot of Hector going for a catch, so did he catch it? how cute is Maggie in her hat! kickss - haha funny how she's looking at her dirty paws helen - I have no idea where you're going with Chazer's shots, intriguing, I really like HIS street shot - I've been tempted to look up if there are any Lotus or Chester streets, because I've never seen any love Marlo's wet look oh dirty nose Jazz sheena - funny how last week Bindi was jumping in and this week we have her shaking after being in the pool ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lotus 4/52 - "and then retrieve some more" Chester 4/52 - "it's your attention I enjoy"

I thought maybe there was to be a pie eating competition to decide the day! I'm in for Sat or Sun. If you go Friday Ill just cry all day at work. If anyone asks me what's wrong Ill just say my cyber friends from a dog forum went to the zoo without me because a girl called Clicking Mad couldnt get out of work on Saturday yes but If you go Saturday Ill just cry all day at work.
