Auggie started the day in my bed. Actually, he spent all night in my bed. Yesterday afternoon/evening something happened. At 5:30 P.M. which is full dark, he’d been out for 2 hours without checking in. Bear and I were out about every 30 minutes walking around and calling. At 7:30, I phoned my neighbors and they had a look around. Nothing. I took another perimeter walk and just as I was getting back to the house, there was Auggie. He wasn’t injured but he had a bunch of loose fur on his shoulder that came out when I brushed him. He came straight in, ate an entire can (small can, but still) of food and went to bed.

This morning, when I got up – late! – he stayed in bed. He finally arose and seemed himself. I checked again and didn’t find any hurts but except for a brief time in the morning and then a walk with Bear and I in the afternoon, he stayed in the house. But he played with toys and ran around so something happened outside. Another mystery in the life of Auggie!

Oh, look! The dog is in the dog bed – a rare occurrence!

At the same time, Auggie is in the chair in the kitchen. He’s sleeping on the cushion of the chair for the island as I moved him cushion and all so that I as in ME – could have my supper sitting at the island. Not a bed, but the island is MY spot for meals.

At least Bear was on his own bed.
