This is a short clip of our afternoon walk.  Sparky is happy to be outside and checking on whatever it is that he checks on.  Sparky shows no sign of discomfort.  I’m still concerned.

Sparky won’t be playing tug-of-war or eating crunchy food until I’m sure his mouth is healed up.  He may not want to go back to his usual dinner.  Sparky is getting Basmati rice, with boneless chicken thighs and turkey gravy.  It’s very tasty, but I can’t bring myself to eat out of the same pot as my dog.

Sparky’s belly sutures look worse than the repair job I did on Mr. Moose.  Sparky wanted me to post a photo because he thinks having a shaved belly makes his wiener look bigger.  It’s very unsettling.

Fortunately, Sparky is not uncomfortable when I lift him carefully.
