Bella and I just got done running some errands, library, hardware store, pharmacy, then I took her for a walk right away, then played catch with some snowballs (she has been jumping up to catch them in mid air, what a jumper!) and she had her supper, now is lying resting. Jeff is going to be home late tonight, so no doubt she will go out and play a bit when he gets home. She did great on all the errands in and out of the car. I was getting nervous because I knew it was time for her PM potty, but she waited until we went for our walk. Every place we go she gets lots of compliments!
That's funny you mention that about the salt on the paws. We had just asked on the Occupaws forum if anyone had any suggestions because our pet dogs we used to have used to really get irritated by the salt and even start to limp. We were told to carry some wet wipes with us and wipe off the paws every time they came in. I am so glad to hear Buddy is behaving himself, except for the barking. That will be quite an issue to control.
Jeff has been taking Bella to the park in the morning before work and meets up with some other ladies who all walk their dogs together--I told him he sounds like the only "dad" in a mom's play group! ha. He said there was another man with them today though. One lady also had 2 of her puppies with her, which are about 8 weeks old. He said Bella really tried to keep up with the puppies. She came home this morning and immediately crawled in her crate and fell asleep! So she has had a long day, too. Does your son do a lot with Bella? Because every time she sees a teenage boy in particular, she wags her tail and gets all excited like she knows them!
