There are 2 different sides of Sparky since the cancer diagnostic.

Inside, Sparky sleeps or rests all the time. The only things that make him get up and show some interest are his meals. Well done beef steak in the evening, boiled beef in the morning, snacks during the day.

If anyone sees him inside, it makes sense that he looks as if something is wrong. He just does not have any energy at all and seems either sad or depressed. That is what dogs do. If they experience anything out of normal, they start sleeping more. It does not matter if they have a cold, or maybe some pain or feel dissoriented or are dizzy.




Outside, however, he is a different dog. Energetic, going in front of me during the walk, wanting to smell everything, always interested (on good weather) in playing with the ball. If we play with the ball, he runs after it with high enthusiasm and seems very happy.

Anyone that looks at him during a walk or while playing with the ball would say that he is a beautiful, healthy labrador.




We see what we want to see.
