More "Patients"

Following a long day and late night, Echo and Buddy allowed us to sleep in. It was raining, so Echo went for a short walk. I took Buddy for a long walk because he would be in the crate most of the day.

Echo returned to the hospital for another visit past automatic doors, wheelchairs, water fountain, and then up the elevator. More waiting was required of the little guy until lunch was finished.

The nursing home will be Lisa's father's next "home". We located the nursing home and Echo stopped to check the place out. He met a few residents and staff who were eager to see him, pet his head, and receive puppy kisses (bad habit that we need to correct). Again no issues with wheelchairs or walkers. Before our lunch, Echo made one last stop to an assisted living location that was having an open house.

Jalyn and her older brother Jared stopped by before we left for home to see and play with Echo and Buddy. Echo feeds off the energy of the kids and required a few corrections to settle down. Echo's return home was bittersweet: he got to eat dinner, but he also received his weekly ear cleaning.
