Pics of Simplistic Pleasures

The loyalty and companionship of a dog is truly a special bond. Actually, I see unconditional love in the eyes of dogs. People, not so much.

 

It was said to me, you can often tell the quality of a person by the way that a dog reacts to them. This is something that I have found to be true.

It’s ALWAYS the right thread to post pictures of dogs, especially Cocker Spaniels...Cockers are the best!! This is Scout, also taken at CSB, Florida.

 

Looks like scout is having fun!
Mines named bentley and he is 13 years old. My constant companion.

 

That photo was from this past summer... Scout just had surgery two weeks ago to remove tissue that had grown around her spine that was causing nerve issues mimicking paralysis. She’s recovering nicely though! She’ll be her usual merry self in no time. She’s been the “million dollar puppy”... she’s only 7 but has already had ACL surgery on her back left leg... we fully expect to have to do her right leg at some point in the (hopefully very distant) future.

 

It was a scary day when Bentley went in for his surgery.
He had 3 fatty tumors removed. 2 on his haunches, and one on his neck.
They had him in a cone, while it was a very serious operation, it was funny watching him walk.

 

We just went for ice cream on a nearby pier.

 

You're younger than I thought, and cuter too! Are you the tall one?

 

Oh gawan witchu!
