What a scamp she is turning into! This morning I woke her up to go out & stopped her leaping off the sofa to give her a few warm up TTouches to lessen the shock to her system of going from deeply sleepy to wide awakey. The second I stopped she tore around the room doing play bows & barks at me! Re-cycled puppy time. My grin was Cheshire-cat-like.
Last night D put one green-lipped mussel tablet in her food. I anticipate such supplements taking about 3 – 6 weeks before seeing any kind of change. I have no idea what it’s contribution was but she has certainly been very perky today. We shall see how it goes.
On our walk we encountered some children whose cat was playing with them in the road. I put Heidi back onto her (broken) Flexi & kept Meg on a short lead. It wasn’t long before I was trussed up like the proverbial turkey with the children laughing hysterically at my attempts to contain a screaming banshee (Meg) & the nutter (Heidi) who was attempting to persue a furry blob in the opposite direction up a fence. The children then cleverly employed a pinser movement around us as they were obviously dog lovers who wanted to stroke “doggy” – I suggested quietly to them that it may be better if I took “doggy” home as she was very tired & would they mind just hanging back a little bit so we could move away. Fortunately they became distracted by the shape that their cat had now assumed so returned their attention to her. I hobbled back home with legs tied together neatly & with 2 very smiley dogs.
