a taste of a bored Rudy
Well, I'm getting a little preview of Rudy without the hard play with
another dog. Franklin had a lump removed from his face yesterday (5 days for biopsy results - meaning 5 sleepless nights......) and wasn't home from 1-8. Rudy didn't know what to do with himself, and Lucy wasn't helping him out. Once Franklin got home last night, all Rudy wanted to do was lick his incision. So, Rudy was on leash and finally settled down on the sofa, but it took some real persistence. Franklin was pretty groggy from the anesthesia, so he wasn't exactly a playmate (not to mention I need to make sure his incision doesn't get bashed open - it's right next to his eye). This morning, Franklin is more mobile, but still tired from his ordeal. Rudy, for the first time since he's been here (almost 5 weeks already!) has been having FRAP sessions. Both yesterday and today, he has been trying to engage the cats in play, and they're not impressed. Good thing I have double-faced tape under my rugs, or they'd be flying. He's up the stairs, down the stairs, up/down, up/down, step on Lucy when he comes when called - ahhhhhhhhhhh! We'll be having some concentrated fetch sessions today, even if it means the end of grass as I know it (the mud in the yard means dogs running and turning jusy slough the grass off). Yet another thing to continue to make me aware that Rudy needs the perfect home. -- Janet B www.bestfriendsdogobedience.com http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/bestfr...bedience/album |

We'll be having some concentrated fetch sessions today, Lucky you! In my next life, I plan to have a retriever of some sort. I love playing fetch and Maui never really liked it. I think after I throw the ball, he'd just as well have me run to get it. I am trying to teach Cali to play fetch but after 5-10 throws, she gets tired of it. When my sister's dog (a weim) lived here, he and I would play fetch outside several times a day. It was great! |

It's the ultimate interactive exercise you can do anywhere, with minimal equipment. -- Janet B www.bestfriendsdogobedience.com http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/bestfr...bedience/album |
