So Delicate

Bailey really is the most sensitive dog because I noticed her licking her front left paw profusely since Monday morning and as I examined her paw I saw that the skin was red and a bit raw. Then I remembered that on our hike at Mount Seymour on Sunday, she had snow balls stuck between her toes and I forgot to remove them when we arrived at the car. 

Instinctively, I gently wash the area, apply polysporin and bandage her paw so that she doesn't ingest the cream. While I'm doing the whole process, Bailey is quietly watching me in awe then proceeds to take a nap and let me do my thing. 

(I am so sorry Bailey! It will not happen again! I promise.)

The Love For Snow

So we thought it would be a nice treat for Bailey if we took her on a hike at Mount Seymour and let her play in the beautiful snow! Soon enough Bailey was having a blast, hopping and sliding all over the place!


At one point I found a hill of snow and decided to climb to the top and slide down. As I was hiking up, Bailey wanted in on some of the action and followed me up the hill. When we reached the top we both slid slowly down! Oh what fun that was!

Looks like someone's tired. I hope you have enough energy to hike back to the car!
