The last night with a dog is mostly when that dog is a pup who will leave us for his or her new family the next day. Not so tonight. Peanut will leave us and this whole world. Some die young. This is life. Still, it seems unjust anytime it happens. With someone so happy, friendly, and nice as Peanut, it feels very unjust. You have made the world a better place, in the brief time you were here, Peanut! We wishyou bon voyage to whereveryou will go, while part ofyou will always be with us in our...Breeding Trees

Scientists in the UK have discovered a variety of the ash tree which is resistant to the attacks by a certain type of fungus killing off ash trees. This fungus has recently been discovered in the UK, but scientists trust that they will be able to grow resistand ash trees from the resistant variety. The downside is that the resistant variety consist of so few trees, that they have a verynarrow genetic base. However, by cross breeding the resistant trees to other ash trees in the UK, the...In the Countryside

Hello, Orange here! I have been elevated to the status as sometimes guest writer in Hailey's blog. This is an honour, I have been told. I do believe it is. This evening, I was the only dog who got to come with Paula and Daniel, as they drove out into the countryside. We visited Paula's sister and her boyfriend, the latter living in a typically Swedish, red house in the countryside outside of our home city. They are very nice people and I had the opportunity to taste some cat food. It was not...Peanut's Disease

We are facing a tragedy in our pack. April's daughter Peanut, who was born last spring, has an autoimmune disease, causing her own body to attack her eyes and pigmentation. This is why she has trouble with her skin and recently also her eyes. The disease is not hereditary, but exist among several dog breeds and also among humans. It is due to a mutation. The disease cannot really be treated, the effects can only be surpressed for a while. She is already over sensitive to light. We will not...Norwegian Salmon

An organisation in Norway, Norges Sjömatsråd (Norway's Seafood Council), has recommended that salmon from Norway, when sold in Sweden, should not be sold under the Swedish name of the fish, but the Norwegian name. Swedish authorities believes thisnot to be an issue. The law already says that you have to state the origin of the sold food on the package, so whether "salmon" is written in Swedish or Norwegian is really of no consequence. I agree, whether it is from Norway or any other country,...Oldest Living Man was Japanese

The worlds oldest living man, and the oldest man ever to have been recorded as living so long, was a Japanese who has now died. The title of being oldest living human is inherited by a Japanese woman. She is not the oldest woman ever to have been recorded as living so long, that record is held by a French woman. Still, the Japanese population brings forth relatively many humans who live to very old ages. They are healthy, the Japanese humans, just like dogs of Japanese breeds are. Japan must...Paula Is Back Home!

After eight days in the hospital, Paula was allowed to go home today. (Hospital care of her kind is voluntary, but you have to be stupid to go home against the recommendations of the doctors.) We are all excited to have her home. Life is not the same without Paula. Our house is not the same without her. We need her, and we believe she needs us too. Now life can return to normal.Not a Great Victory

In the World Cup qualifying game today, Sweden played the Faroe Islands. This is a small group of islands in the North Sea. It belongs to Denmark, but has some self government and its own football team. It has a very small population, smaller than the city we live in. There are, of course, always eleven players from the start in each team, but a smaller country has fewer people to chose from, thus a lower possibility of having a good team. Despite the odds, Sweden did not win by more than...
