Paws crossed
I’ve got my paws crossed that I will come home from my appointment this morning without the cone. Never have I so longed to leave a cone behind. I’ve been so miserable the last few days that Mum has even been asking me if I will want all the upheaval of going on holiday in a few weeks. We need to wait and see how I feel after today. If it’s only the cone that’s holding me back then without question I am longing to see my friends and family in Switzerland.
Frankly, a good run around the garden will do me the world of good mentally as well as physically. I’m even hoping to be told I can go back to my hydrotherapy.
Pebbles’ walk
Pebbles said she really enjoyed her walk yesterday. She went a little further and it was made easier by not encountering anything that worried her. She’d met a Tesco delivery truck the day before, but yesterday there was no traffic and no people. It’s funny though, although she’s happy to do some sniffing on her way out on a walk, she needs entertaining all the way home. Mum played find it with her. She’s getting quite good at it – Mum, not Pebbles.
Mum is doing far better at throwing the piece of food in a straight line in front of her or to the side where Pebbles is. It means Pebbles trips her up far less often, which has to be good. If Pebbles can build up some confidence around traffic without getting hyper, Mum thinks she might be better on a circular walk so she doesn’t think so much about going home.
Furniture repairs
It’s amazing the jobs Mum is getting around to ahead of her party. She is even working out how to repair some chairs that have been on the ‘to do’ list for years. I might just nudge my favourite cushion in her direction to see if she could sew that back together too.
Love and licks
