[nagdu] Krokus's adventure

[Daryl Marie]

Tracy,

jenny loved Montana too when we were there last year. She didn't get sick, but her stool was quite runny, and we think it might have been the change in water. But sounds like he had a great time!

What do you mean by "flat" curbs? If they are what I'm picturing, Jenny had the same problem in Toronto where there was little or no difference between the concrete of the sidewalk and the concrete of the road (not just a wheelchair access ramp, but NO difference); freaked people out...

It was Krokus's first plane trip, but he handled it like a pro. He even used the indoor relief area at the Minneapolis airport. Poky Krokie transformed into superspeedy Krokus. He actually pulled hard, which he never does, and I had to steady him, which I've never done before. I hope he keeps some speediness, now we're back home. However, it's getting very hot, so we'll see. He had a wonderful time, sniffing around the big yard, smelling rabbits, digging in molehills, eating grass and Goddess-knows-what. I heard him pulling up grass like a cow. Or he'd just stand and sniff the wind, blowing across the prairie. He enjoyed lying near me, hanging out in the shade, too. He threw up the first night, but I think it was just all the excitement, because he was fine after that. We both enjoyed zipping along wide, fairly uncrowded sidewalks. There are a few places around here like that, but not too many. He didn't do great with the very flat curbs, but there aren't really any around here, so he hasn't have much experience with them. Anyway, we had a great time, and he was a good boy, despite being a very excited puppy.
