Mona has been huge and bright. And the weirdoes have come into the store.
Bear has had good walkies the last two days. On Friday I took him past the pool, and instead of children getting their swimming lessons, it was full of the lifeguards/instructors furiously swimming laps in a contest. Bear got very excited and after a few sneezes, galloped along woofing. Yesterday morning he got in place to be harnessed and was dancing up and down in anticipation, just like the old days. So again we went around the pool, a longer walk than I've felt he can manage recently. He's also been getting patted by all sorts of people, although I'm not sure he can see them very well - his cataracts are kind of obvious now. This helps me avoid his getting excited about other dogs.
