Why isn’t there a way to rotate videos? 😓
Fun hike with Candice & Johnny-furface in the rain this morning.
She fetches this much better than a ball.
River & Frida Westlemania
River & Frida think there's plenty of room to play in our small backyard! #wrestlemania
Potential little brother play date.
River at the river
Took a mid-day mental health break yesterday and hit Bull Creek. I let her off-leash for 20 minutes, with no other dogs around. I expected some limping afterwards, but none appeared. Yay!
Followup with surgeon is this next Wednesday, where he'll give her a full exam and x-rays, then hopefully give us the green light for increased activity and play.
Found a nice and private dog launch....
...until 15 minutes later when I noticed the man sitting in a lean chair in the bushes behind us. “Time to go!”
She’s not wanting to walk on the leg at all today, so we just hit the beach for some swimming. Once that leg got warmed up in the water, she was ready to chase squirrels on land.... but mean mom wouldn’t let her.
We hit the trail for a walk, but ended up finding a sandy beach area perfect for swimming - yay!
Slow and steady wins the recovery race.
Day 10 post-surgery, walking with almost no limp!
Just out front for quick potties, as we aren’t allowed to start walks yet, but she’s ready! Follow up appt is Wednesday afternoon, so hopefully we’ll be cleared to begin official walks at that time.
I have to use the harness now because she’s anxious to get active, and will try to run and/or do spins on the regular collar leash.
It’s been exactly a month since River did something to her knee, and the limping has been very minimal, especially these past few days. Today we threw caution to the wind and went on a hike, because we’re both going a little mental from the lack of activity.
No limping on our adventure, but the real test will be how it feels after she wakes up from her nap. It’s always a delayed reaction limp. Cross your paws everyone!!
80F in Austin today. Back to the same swimming hole for swimming therapy. Such a bummer to not be able to run and play in this gorgeous weather!
We took a short, cold swim this morning...
Walk softly, but carry a big stick!
Such a tease....
Friday Happy Hour! 2 balls for the price of 1 !
Rainy day zoomies behind the bowling alley.
River's having fun on the farm with her new friend, Roscoe.
What do you do when you accidentally wake up with the sun? Beat the crowds to the park, that's what!
(Forgot to post this from the morning).
Jude's not giving it up today, River. Sorry.
Still cleaning up the neighborhood, one piece of trash at a time.
River took Frida to her favorite bar.
What's this!?!? The only time River ever barks is when someone knocks on our door. Must be the cold front winding her up.
Playing fetch at the school because roving security guards are calling 3-1-1 on people who take their dog to the LARGE, WOODED OPEN FIELD THAT IS LITERALLY JUST SITTING THERE VACANT, and has been used by the community as an unofficial doggie meetup area for years. Assholes.
We got the band back together!
Great pups, fantastic friends, and a beautiful October morning in nature. #happiness
Late morning bestie hike.
Pease Park adventures with Jude!
River's new friend, Frida, is spending the day with us!
The woman's phone conversations are in all my videos today.
