Finally, some nice weather

So 22 degrees, sunny, light breeze, no rain, no bugs. Why couldn't it be like this all summer? This week is shaping up to be the best one, weather-wise, all year (with the exception of possible rain on Friday. Whatever, it's a long weekend, I'll give you that one, Mother Nature).

So Kodiak is back, tentatively, and apprehensively. He had been off for about 4 months with a paw injury that wouldn't heal correctly, and now has to wear his winter boots to protect it. He could care less! He's HAPPY! He was so excited to get back in the pack and see all his old friends, and sniff all his old places at the park. I'm pretty sure he smiled for 3 hours straight on Friday.

Mika and Toko were thrilled to see him, too (well Mika was, Toko could care less!). They all sat together in the back of the van on the way to the park and the whole way back. All three of them grinning wildly.

Spencer has been full of beans lately. She got a fancy haircut the other week, and looks totally spiffy. For an older dog, she can really move when she wants to. (she's motivated by cookies I think).

Felix will be coming back next week! As will Ellie, I believe. Wohoo!

I'm happy to see a mention of Spencer on here (thought I do like the video of Oliver)! It was sad having to take her out of the pack because of her arthritis, but she's getting treated for it and that seems to have helped A LOT. With that said, it's not just cookies that motivate her, you should see the fuss she makes for her arthritis pills. She's like a furry little junkie.

That is hilarious! Spencer always makes me laugh, which is great because she's the last stop of the day and it's nice to go home with a smile.

I'll try to get a good, recent picture of her up here soon!
