Exercise Does a Body Good?
Friday, Jenna came over with Gibbs and we went rollarblading. They rode a bike. Well, not together, but Gibbs ran beside Jenna on the bike! I took both dogs at the same time! I must have a death wish. Anyway, the girls were at a movie with Brama so we rolled down there, jumped in the pool and swam then got out to do some more blading. However, Gibbs' paws were already bloody so we just went back to my house. Loki started whining just after getting back on the rode, so I slammed on my brake. His poor little foot pads were raw! Jenna stayed with him while I rolled back with Gibbs and Bo. Got chased by some stupid chihuahuas (no offense Lily) before finally making it home to get the van for poor Loki. He could barely jump in the back! We usally go a lot further than mom's house so I'm not sure what happened to their paws. Bo's are a little worn too, but not nearly as bad as Loki's.
Here is Loki right after we got back. I let him lay on a nice soft blanket. I rubbed him with a towel since he was still a little wet from the pool. He LOVES to be wrapped in a towel.
We ran to CVS to get some bandages for him. Mike fixed him up although he wasn't too happy about it. He sat up and gave Mike the evil eye when we were all done. We're sitting on a deflated moon bounce in case you were wondering....
He was so embarrassed he would hardly pose for a shot.
Our vet-in-training took good care of him.
This is Saturday morning, the next day. I went to let him out in the morning, but he stopped, he couldn't walk any further! Sorry about the stance, avert your eyes!
