The New Dog is settling in. The morning walk this morning included meeting several other Morning Beach Regulars, and she behaved very well : recalled when I asked, wrassled happily with the First Dog, went as a pack to go play with others, and was very friendly with those humans that wanted it.

However, this was in part because First Dog nosed me awake and New Dog leapt into my lap when I sat for meditation, and wiggled until I agreed that Walks Are Meditation So Why Not Do That. We are all training each other.

When did the wolves notice that we were ready for domestication?

Grouse and larks and yellowhammers on the golf course. Must be spring.

Turns out that, along with everything else this last fortnight, I'm also properly unwell. So it's antibiotics and rest. And hello to Lizzie tomorrow.

Okay, this has been a really stressful fortnight. I would like to get off the carousel for a bit.
