Took this little friend to the vet today because we noticed her quick, shallow breathing this morning. She’s been on meds for a few years for a heart murmur so this was always expected one day, but we just hoped it might never come. She’s got congestive heart failure. Home with an additional diuretic and hoping to buy time with her. She was fine with the vet until he produced a needle, then there was dramatic yowling, followed by the fitting of a small muzzle.

Even though she wore herself out swimming earlier Summer was ready to go to work.
Today is breakdown the cardboard and recycle ewaste day.
Summer is practically a professional box crusher.
Sometimes she needs help with a particularly pesky box. In that case I send her off to fetch another one while I finish off the one she started.
She enjoyed a treat when the job was done.

I woke up way too early and was as quiet as a mouse. I wanted to let everyone else wake up in their own time.
As soon as Summer picked her head up I asked if she was ready for an adventure.
We let her pal rest in.
It only took a minute to fill up the water bottle and grab our walk ready day pack.
The fog was thick but Summer said no matter and we were off.
The trail to her swimming spot is overgrown but I managed to follow along without too much trouble.
She was one happy dog.
Good morning, Mastodon.

I’m dog sitting our niece’s dog this week. Yesterday, he hid and wouldn’t come when I called him. I was yelling at our 2 dogs to find him too, but they wouldn’t. Finally I decided to give our dogs treats and the other dog showed up so I gave him one too. When he finished he came trotting into the room and stopped dead in his tracks when he saw our 2 dogs giving him cold, disapproving stares. He looked back and forth at our 2 dogs as he slowly wagged his tail nervously while our 2 dogs stared him down. Then he decided maybe it’s best to leave and slowly started backing up. The ice was broken when one of our #dogs finally relented and ran up to him with tail wagging then everything went back to normal. This interaction was fascinating to watch. Our dogs definitely sent a message. 😂
