New Adventures

I plan to send an email off to the wonderful surgeon at Alta Vista Animal Hospital who performed Heidi's knee surgery to say thanks and update him on how she's doing. We're about 6-7 weeks post-surgery now and she is pretty much her old self.

This morning, the girls woke me up early, but not too early (around 7am). We headed out for our morning walk and I decided to try a new route since Heidi can go a little further now. We headed off south toward the Glebe and then cut across to the path along the canal. There weren't too many skaters at that time of morning, but we saw a couple glide by. The dogs seemed fascinated by the ice and were trying to sniff at it from our view up above on the path. They watched a skater go by, I don't think they've ever seen someone skate. They paused to take it in, then we continued on our way.

They trotted along, I walked, it was peaceful. A group of runners passed us, the girls tried to run alongside them in between sniffing the new bushes and rocks.

I'm looking forward to more walks and adventures now that Heidi is on the mend. One of the best things about living downtown is that we have so many options for routes to walk, there's always something new to see and sniff.
