Tail Up!
Posted by lisa on Aug 20, 2008
Fergus had his first long walk in three weeks today. It was too cold for cicadas to sing, so the boys and I met their friend Sally at the conservation land and went for a long walk through the fields and a swim in the river. With no Mutt Muffs. He’s out of shape now, so I didn’t really throw the ball, just let him run with the other two dogs and swim. Fergus had his happy trot on display, and was so very happy. It did my heart good. When Fergus is happy he shares it with everyone around.
He’ll probably be sore tomorrow from all the exertion. Last time he overdid it he had a temporary limp. Luckily I know massage.
The Mutt Muffs have been a savior, but I’m very glad to set them aside now and then.
