So much fun

Athena here!  Today was so much fun. Mommy n Daddy took us to the doggy park this morning. I love the park!  There wasn't any doggies at first, so I ran around chasing squirrels. Duchess did her own thing.  
Then puppies started showing up. I had a blast.  And even better! Boyfriend showed up.   Mommy calls MC, my neighbor and best buddy, my Boyfriend. He and I have so much fun together.


We ran and barked (well I barked) and just had fun.   I love the doggy park.  Duchess got in trouble cause she kept picking on one of the little dogs. Daddy took her out of the park. Pshaw.   I'd never do anything to get me taken away from the park.

Now we're just relaxing here at the house.  I'm a bit pooped from all that running around I did. 

I love being outside.  If I could, I'd be outside forever---as long as Mommy & Daddy were there!











Mommy's Post:
Here's some pictures of my two beauties.  

Athena update:  Athena is doing very well. She's been with us going on 10 months and has flourished.   Her legs are much stronger and she runs much better than she use to. She even has gotten some strength in her back legs as well.   Her playing with Boyfriend helps a lot. 

She still has a significant bare spot on her back, but it isn't really noticeable.  She has minor hair growth in her bald patches but nothing significant.

She still has issues with eating WHATEVER she finds when she is nervous. Since our last post, she swallowed 3 pennies.  Of course she brought them right back up.   We're lucky that her stomach is sensitive and doesn't allow her to digest some of the things she eats. 

She had a upset stomach the other day and proceeded to eat grass. But since it's snow covered  and frozen, she swallowed quite a few leaves.   The present she left afterwards was quite 'interesting'.

She is a very sensitive dog.  We try to give her as much love and attention as we can. I'm confident she loves her life now. 

DUCHESS:
Duchess is not liking the winter. Between the snow, ice, and cold I do not walk them. My knee is to weak to chance hurting myself, so the dogs suffer.   She is not happy.  I think she appreciated going to the park today though.

Duchess has been extra needy lately. That is very unlike her.  It is taken getting use to.   I know she looks forward until the Spring.
