Shadow Monday. Our girl has had a good week. Lotsa skitch's and a walk and rolls on the lawn.

We got a package delivery one day and that meant Shadow got to see her buddy J.



J's area of scratching got Shadow's left hind leg going. Scratching more.

We went for a walk to check the mail, during which several squirrels tempted her.
The leash got pulled taut a lot. Shadow went then on squirrel alert.



When we got home she was let off leash. Free to chase birds, which she did.

Another day seemed just right for a roll on the lawn.





Followed by a good shake.

Back inside Shadow yawned

And then plopped down to rest.

Capped off with a well-earned nap. Shadow is most definitely enjoying life. All I can say is, you go, girl!

like that, I always wonder if I could fix my aching back by doing the same. I would probably wind up in traction!
