back to basics

Poor puppy. We should have gone on an early morning walk, but I slept in.

We had two walks today. Woohoo.

In the early afternoon we went on the shop walk. This time, we went back to basics and walked the way that we used to but not the extended distance. We walked the short way along the street to the shops, Kane rested while I was inside, then around the outside of the complex and through the woods on the way home. Just like we used to do.

Later in the late afternoon, we went on another walk to Macquarie oval like we used to. We didn't stay long - Jeanie and Pepper were there - and walked around the block to home.

Even with the cooler weather, Kane's joints are ageing and not as supple as they used to be. Kane has been on glucosamine+chondroitin tablets for 2-3 months now, which is a more convenient form. We may go back to the powdered Sasha's Blend.

Kane is being spoilt this week with dinner. He had cubed raw rump steak for dinner, with the usual diced carrot and zucchini. I need to cut an incision in the cubes to bury his tablets.
