Havin’ fun

Hard to tell in this late afternoon photo but we had another mostly sunny day and it went from -7 to 8F today!

I think Auggie feels the cold but he LOVES to be out with Bear so after our 2 afternoon walks, I let Auggie out with us while Bear had his after walk treats.

I think Bear enjoys him being out for the after-walk…they nose-touch and generally mosey about together.

I’ve not had a problem getting Auggie to come in. Bear’s feet seem to feel the cold and Bear is happy to come when I call – then I call Auggie and rattle the bag of feline greenies and Auggie comes running also.

I wish I’d measured Auggie: nose to tail when I first got him. I think he’s grown quite a lot…but it would be fun to know length and height. I only know weight and he is just under 10 pounds from a start of slightly over 3 1/2 pounds.

Growin’ up and havin’ fun!

*** After the lunchtime walk, we all took a brief Jeep ride. I’ve been taking Auggie for short rides to help him get used to going. Today was the first I took them both. All well. Auggie is still a bit vocal. Bear nosed the carrier several times which calmed Auggie so we’ll do joint trips now. Bob got much better about car trips after going in the motorhome so when it gets warmer, we’ll give that a try!
