Suki was much more comfortable today as the temperature and humidity have dropped a bit. This morning she had an early walk before 6:30 and stayed outside until 7:00. She would not consider breakfast. She spent the day indoors in the cool house, and met me at the door at 3:15. We went for a long walk around Brittingham and Hixon lumberyard. She started out as the lead dog, as usual, and ended up trailing behind me.
After that, she rested on the back terrace until the fire station sirens went off for a fire. After about 5 minutes, she started to howl and I went downstairs and howled with her for a few minutes. It's a funny sight, because she has to think about it pretty hard before she will howl - but finds it to be quite an irresistable urge. She gets a goofy expression on her face and howls very softly (looking up at the moon) as if it is a bit of an embarassment.
The wireless router arrived today. Avinash was busy installing that, so I made dinner of spaghetti and meatballs, eating it in front of her until she was really in the mood to try and eat something. She went to the basement without her leash and ate half a bowl of dog food with cheese on top (like a good Wisconsin dog). That was followed up with several doggie treats and a cookie I made specially for her without any chocolate chips in it. She especially liked the cookie.
