Coach Ursala - 9/6 - Fun Times and Rainy Days

Hi all:

Ursala here! Sorry I haven't written for a bit. L and J went out of town this weekend, and we have all been getting back into our groove. Mr. G and I stayed with another foster family while they were gone. I learned about a new kind of dog while I was there—have you heard of chihuahuas?—and I also enjoyed having a fenced yard to hang out in.

After L and J got back on Sunday, things went back into their normal swing. Since we had missed our long Sunday walk, we did a long walk on Monday evening after the weather had started to cool off. On our walk, we saw deer, beavers, squirrels, and birds. It was fun! I am getting pretty good at ignoring all the wildlife when I walk, even the small furry creatures. I love meeting people though and do it every chance I get.

No baths, please?
On Tuesday, I got a little messy and had to have a bath. Don't I look pathetic in my picture? You won't make me take a bath if I come home with you, will you? If I have to, I will be really good for you like I was for L, but I would prefer if we could skip the whole bath thing. K? Thanks!

Today is shaping up to be a better day, even though it's raining. I don't mind walking in the rain, but Mr. G doesn't like it, so he keeps asking to go home. I just go forward thought.

Walking, tongue out style.
Hope your week is good! Talk soon!

Bye for now!
