It's Not Just Us

There's something about Vicki that draws attention and she loves it! Took her to the vet's for her booster shot. People generally love her. The staff makes a big fuss. Even other dog owners look at her with wide-eyed wonder. When they weighed her she was 14.5 kilos. Maybe, maybe the skipped meals and 4 or 5 walks a day are doing some good. Some people are blunt, "Whoa, she's fat!". Other people are more diplomatic, "Oh, she must be a sweet one to have so many treats." Our standard reply is that she is a rescued dog and we are working on getting her healthy.

Vicki and Augustus can stay in one room without barks and hisses now especially when attention for both of them from us is involved. Augustus has been really great throughout this transition. We have to keep his food off the floor but he doesn't mind. Having Vicki around keeps him on his paws. We can hope that one day they'll be friends.
