For those new to the blog, my follow-up Friday provides me with an opportunity to update or revise a post from the previous week.
You know sometimes you post about something and you need an update but it doesn’t warrant a whole blog. Or sometimes someone made a comment that really resonated with you. Yup, Follow-Up Friday baby!
Dog’s Can’t Add – Update
I didn’t start all the way back to square one with Delilah. Last week she was up to being off-leash for about 95% of our walk. This week she’s at about 30%.
She’s been okay with being off-leash, but just okay. Not spectacular, in fact there have been a few times when she had completely ignored me calling her.
In that instance once she returns to me she stays on leash. I also keep her on leash when we are in our danger zones.
I said once before if she has to stay on leash her entire life I can live with it and I stand by that. I will keep going back to what works as many times as I have to.
Drama King – Update
Sampson hasn’t been licking his paw quite so much. I try to wrap it when we aren’t around (or awake) to keep track of what he’s doing. I had Hubby look at it with a magnifier and it looks like he has a small bump, which could be a bug bite or an ingrown hair.
He’s not scheduled for his annual exam until the end of October so I’m on the fence as to whether I should take him or not.
Here’s what it looked like this morning, what do you think?
W.T.F./Whoo Hoo Wednesday – Update
Do you remember the dog that was shot and dragged? Well apparently a man has come forward and explained what happened.
He says he found the dog in his yard and the dog was hurt, he thought the dog might have been hit by a car. So he shot her to end her suffering. He then left her in his yard but when she began to smell he wrapped some wire around her legs and dragged her out of the yard. He has people who confirm his story.
I don’t know about you, but I still have a lot of questions on this. Did the dog have a collar on? If so, why didn’t he call the dog’s owner? Did he know whose dog it was? Why wouldn’t you call a vet and see if the vet could help you find the owner? Why not call the sheriff’s office to begin with and let them know you have a hurt dog in your yard? And most importantly, why was a nursing mother outside, unattended, without any identification on her?
And PETA sucks. I think I’d like to add that to my footer or something.
This ‘N That Thursday – Author’s Note
Just a reminder, I will be taking the redirect off for a week, beginning tomorrow. Please either update your google reader or subscribe (please subscribe so it looks like I have more than 12 readers.) 😉
And a quick side note: I’m struggling to write a blog post, read and comment on your posts and then answer my comments. I still intend on getting to them, I’m just a bit behind so please bear with me. 🙂
Happy Friday!!
