Our Last Hike... March 3, 2024H

Our last trail selfie. 

 We hit 53 degrees today on Whitecap. The Yellow trail is weighted down in ice on the hills, but on the gentler slopes and snowmobile trails, the hardpacked snow allows the microspikes to work flawlessly. On the way down the Yellow trail, I held Bailey upright with a leash connected to his harness to prevent him from slipping on the icy downs. I battled sections of the trail where I'd posthole, but for the most part, we both did fine. 

About 10 days ago, we visited the vet and Dr. Mickols recommended I feed Bailey protein like beef, chicken, and turkey, along with low-fat, low sugar, yogurt. He loves it and is getting a bit spoiled.

Notice the smile? He just pooped.
A happy dog.
