Unusually Quiet Day
So, it's our second day back since
the trip to California. Glindy is still glad enough to be home that
her usual high-energy, rambunctious nature is being kept in
check.
In the normal course of things, when we're home she's often running
in and out all day long. She loves to sit on the back porch, watch
the birds, and occasionally leap at the back fence to bark at the
dog in the yard behind ours. Then she'll bark to come back in, and
the routine will start all over again.
When she's had enough of sitting around the house, though, she'll
usually run back and forth to the garage door, asking to be taken
to day care so she can run and play with the other dogs. This is
usually my cue that she's under-exercised, and that I need to get
with the program if I want to fulfill her needs as well as my
own.
Today, by comparison, she and Spencer (my other dog) are glad to
sit outside quietly most of the time, and visit inside with me in a
fairly relaxed way. Glindy's still settling back into her routine,
though, so by tomorrow I expect she'll be reminding me that it's
time to hop in the car for day care again.
