Well at last I\u2019m being allowed some freedom again. Oh, it\u2019s been hard and I do know it was for my own good, but I\u2019m not a resting sort of a dog. I\u2019m more of a jump everywhere sort of dog, which I\u2019m happy to say I\u2019m now starting to do once again. What is disconcerting is that I seem to be losing a lot of my coat. Shadow has been very sweet and reassuring and told me the same happened to her when she was spayed, but then it came back even thicker and shinier than ever. Although, she did alarm me by saying that some bits of her went so bald she even went to the vet to ask if it was anything to worry about. I don\u2019t think I want to go bald. At least happily I can now go out and about with Mum and should be fit enough to see lots of my friends next weekend. It\u2019s going to be one exciting weekend as not only do I have a Fun Day to go to on Saturday but I\u2019m meeting one of my best friends on Sunday for another walk and he\u2019s introducing me to another of his friends, so we should all have fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mum says the only upside of this time of year is that she can start to leave us in the car sometimes when she goes out, which means we can go along more often. Even if it\u2019s just an outing to the local shop she would never take us in the summer as it would be too hot for any length of time. Once it\u2019s properly cool with no chance of being too hot then it actually works in our favour as if there is less driving home to pick us up then there is more time for walking and that has to be good news\u2026 for me at least. Shadow and Ari have both said they are happy not to have any more exercise than they get now, but I just love being outdoors so I\u2019ve stuck my paw up for the extra. I think by January it will be best though as that\u2019s when Mum will start planning her next novel so she will need more outdoor thinking time and I\u2019ll get to help with the plot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well I\u2019m off to spend the day jumping so I\u2019ll see you soon<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
