Our lovely Jess, when she’s on the sofa she always has at least one paw touching me or Erica. The poor thing has epilepsy, arthritis and separation anxiety and is just the sweetest most loving dog I’ve ever met #DogsOfMastodon
Today was supposed to include a day trip for our little family. It turns out that today wasn't the best day. My husband had a restless night with muscle cramps so Summer and I had a restless night providing warm rice packs and massage to get through the worst.
Today will be focused on rest and recovery.
We decided to save our picnic stuff for the weekend and choose a closer destination.
It's all good.
Summer still needed a good run so I ran her down the hill.
She says to tell you that she loves her Mastodon friends.
One and all.

Oh yeah! I forgot we saw what looks like a corgi/rottweiler the other day! #DogsOfMastodon

Every night before bed, I wake Allie up with a belly and head rub. This is the face she makes every time
I want what She is having!
I witnessed a miracle drug today!
Damn. I sure do want another one.

“We’re coming back from the shelter, and the whole ride he just kept looking at me like this—eyes full of confusion, as if he wasn’t sure what was happening. I could see the uncertainty, maybe even fear, but also the tiniest flicker of hope.
He probably thinks he’s headed to another place, another cage, another lonely night. But what he doesn’t know yet is that this time, it’s different. This ride is taking him home.” - We Are Rescuer

Summer and I were working at cross purposes this morning.
Since we were on a trail less traveled with poor visibility I was slightly worried about finding the trail back again.
I know Summer will take me to the car if I ask but we were at least three miles from the parking lot and even though she will get me there it isn't always the easy way.
I decided to take off my stocking cap and hang it on a stick to mark the trail.
Summer waited until I was down the beach a ways and she disappeared.
A few minutes later here she came with my hat. She was so proud of herself.
She really is a good girl.
It worked out.
We found our way home in the end.

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
There is no fundamental difference between man and the higher mammals in their mental faculties. ... The lower animals, like man, manifestly feel pleasure and pain, happiness and misery. Happiness is never better exhibited than by young animals, such as puppies, kittens, lambs, etc., when playing together, like our own children. Even insects play together. -Charles Darwin, naturalist and author (12 Feb 1809-1882)
A quiet corner, a warm latte, and a little white dog who has clearly decided this is the best seat in the café ☕🐾

Allie's been doing awesome today! Thanks everyone for the advice! She has to be carried outside, but once she's in the cold she perks right up. She loves the cold. She even walked all the way from the back coverall into the house with no problems. Her head shaking is almost gone, and she seems a lot happier (unless we're carrying her)
Couldn't get a good Pic of her today so here she is as a puppy!
Had to rush poor Allie to the vet today, as she started acting all weird and we thought she might be having a seizure. Turns out it's vertigo. Aside from the meds, does anyone have any advice for dealing with an old dog with #Vertigo?
We are enjoying this morning moment. We are all feeling perky and happy to be together.
We decided to save the worries for tomorrow. Not that there isn't plenty to worry about but a rest is in order. I even took off my Fitbit in favor of a free day.
Warm apple turnovers for breakfast with rich dark coffee.
We reminded each other of challenging times past and our good fortune in surviving and beating all the odds. We are so lucky and we are thankful.
Summer says she loves all of us too.
Good morning, Mastodon.

Our neighbors have company.
They have lined the property line between us with RV's full of their relatives. Not to mention the six pickups and other vehicles.
Summer is not amused.
On top of that I left her home while I went to fill the free pantry with food. I had too much to carry to add a leash to the mix.
She has no poker face.
