She loves our walks

And why wouldn't she love our walks? She gets to run, swim, chase things and usually meet other dogs.
She was looking for ducks in the creek that were there earlier.

A quick dip in the creek always cools her off. Sometimes a puddle will do.

In the same spot as last year

I took a picture of Mya in this same spot last year. I love these purple flowers/weeds.
She's watching for squirrels

Sticks

It's funny how a dog can be happy with just a plain old stick!

Should I admit it?

Ok, here goes..... I'm a fan of Dog Whisperer!

I have to admit that I had heard so many negative things about this guy so I didn't even bother watching a show to gather my own opinion. I happened to be flicking through the channels and saw the show and thought I would see what it is all about. Surprisingly, it's a great show. He doesn't have "tricks" that he uses. It's based on what a dog should be in a pack.

I have used a few of his suggestions and they have worked for Mya. The first one was the control at the front door. When someone knocks, she goes nuts and I couldn't answer the door without holding her in one hand to stop her from running out the door while talking to the person at the door. With a few suggestions, she now sits back and waits while I answer the door. Big improvement.

I think with any show, it's up to you to decide what will work for you and to make your own opinion and not care what anyone else thinks.

Always in position

She always seems to plant her butt in a place where a hand is within reach. Even during the World Junior hockey game.

Mya and her Poppy
My, what big eyes you have!
Always ready for the camera




Twins

Have you ever heard that a pet will look like it's owner after a while or an owner will look like their pet. Here's a perfect example. Both Mya and Roddy have jet black hair. However, both of them have been getting grey in the beard lately. It's hard to see Mya's beard in this picture, but it's almost all grey now.

The stitches are out

I brought Mya to the vet on Friday to have her stitches removed. They complimented me saying that I did an excellent job keeping her incision clean. I did clean her everyday and made sure she didn't run. That was the hardest part. They said that she healed perfectly. So yay, that is all done with.



The hair is growing back and she's back to her normal wiggly self.

Healing after the Spay

Here are some pictures taken today after Mya's spay surgery. It's a big long cut, but it is healing beautifully. There is no redness, no leakage and she is not bothering with it at all. I think she will be back to normal in no time at all.

Drop the Ball!!!

Why is it that Mya doesn't obey when she is being video taped? Every other time she drops the ball and waits for the next throw. Honestly!!! lol

Running Alone



Harley wasn't in the park today. We went out a little later than usual because of the cold. So, I brought Mya's ball with us so she could have a good "focused" run.

A Romp in the Park

Here is Mya and her female friend Harley. They get along great and love to run and explore together. Of course, here's a picture of Mya in a mud puddle. Her favorite place to be.

Here is Harley's Dad. Mya loves him and knows what pocket the treats are in!
Running at full speed.

Checking things out



Walking in the grass

A dip in the creek.

The Month of the Spay

Mya will be spayed this month. On November 25th. Nervous????? Yes!!!

My father in law is paying the majority of the bill and I'm paying for the extra IV and the blood tests. Without him offering to do that, I don't think I would have ever saved up enough to get it done. Or maybe, that was my excuse for putting it off.

Other Friends






I didn't give him a name. He only arrived at the trailer in the last 2 days that I was there. Probably because Mya wasn't around for those days. He was a cute little guy. I hope he's there next year.
