Cats and Dogs Revisited...

Cats may be better at hunting, but dogs are better at entertaining themselves. Jilly loves this box with holes in it that we had for the cats. We put her tennis balls in it and she would get them out. Then she started doing the oddest thing...after getting her tennis balls out, she would put the balls back IN! Not only that, but the next day, and following days, she would be playing fetch and take her balls over to the box with holes and put them in one of the holes. She would also try to put some of her stuffed toys in the holes as well. It was pretty amazing, and cute, to watch.

















Yesterday Jilly went on a half mile walk, she loved it. We ran part of it and walked (well, I walked, she trotted) most of it. She's doing good on the leash, but one line of the walkway was stop and go because there's a line of trees that drops leaves and sticks and stuff on the asphalt. I can't wait until she's better trained on the leash, then we can do a real jog and actually get her tired out.
