Shadow tried diving yesterday. I really have to say how very impressed I was. She was just having a normal swim when the toy she likes chasing up and down the pool, suddenly started to sink to the bottom of the pool. At the best of times, Shadow is a very determined little dog. She didn\u2019t wait for someone to sort the problem out for her, she just dived below the surface to rescue it and then came back up. Both our Mistress and our hydrotherapist were a bit concerned and very surprised. They wanted her to have a rest at the end to check she hadn\u2019t swallowed any water. Shadow simply laughed and carried on swimming. What a girl. She was absolutely fine and had her toy to prove it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not a move I fancy trying, but I did have a good swim in\nmy own way, which was essentially on the surface. I was quite relaxed and happy\nto be there, which always helps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The one thing we all find with going into kennels is that we\nare rather tired for a day or two when we get home. Wilma was funniest\nyesterday, as she could barely keep her eyes open. Mind you, the dull miserable\nweather makes us all feel a bit like that too. I suppose our Mistress having\nkept us up most of the night before as she wasn\u2019t well, probably added to it. I\nstayed in bed, but Wilma is always up and ready to help if she\u2019s needed. As it\nwas, our Mistress explained there was nothing Wilma could do to help, but that\ndidn\u2019t stop Wilma waiting quietly in case the situation changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, if the weather forecast is right we might see some sunshine\nevery day for a few days. That hasn\u2019t happened around here for some time so we\u2019re\nall hoping it\u2019s true. Cross your paws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
