Small Victories

Double hikes this weekend at Springton Manor Farm put Gretchen in a coma. Filling her belly full of food and fat didn't hurt either. Literally she laid on the floor last night with her eyes open unable to move or even sleep. Two mornings in a row I have gotten her up before she gets us up. This morning, she melted to the floor and started snoring when I took her out of her crate.

A tired dog is a very good dog and a hiking dog is a very happy dog.
