Doggy routines..

The dogs after a quick run.

Wake up in the morning - meaty soup... Go for a walk, pee, s**t, back in the kennel and bye bye... When I came home today I took the dogs for a spin in front of the bike. There has come a sprinkle of snow, so the local road is less slippery. Short distance - around 5 kms at a good pace. Phoebe RUNS and Luke PULLS when he doesn't stop to mark his spot...

Luke is getting more and more relaxed with us - he is a really sweet dude - calm and happy :-)
He seems to adapt really well also to Nexus - they even layed down on the floor together - Luke cleaning Nexus' fur and Nexus licking Luke on the nose just like he does with Phoebe!

Luke has spent his long life as a kennel dog - he has, shall we say, acquired a.....an odour?! On Saturday we took him into the shower and washed him - NO PROBLEMS! He was calm and accepting, even seemed to enjoy it! Gooood boy, Luke :-) We love him!

I believe Nexus still holds his position as THE boss, hihihi, eller ?

Actually even I noticed Luke had a kennel smell when I got him back......he lived in a smaller place with concrete floor there. I guess the space we have here with me makes it less prominent......and fortunately the snow whases it out. he has spent a lot of time in his life in a sofa too.....he has not always lived outdoors!

Aaah, yes - Luke is really well behaved indoors, and it is clear that he appreciates the company and comfort - Luke is truly a gentle and relaxed guy. It is fun to see the differing personalities between him and Phoebe.... She is MUCH more "hyperactive" than him, including during our runs, but I am sure he will be the one to stay the full distance :-)
