Hi Josh, 

How is your day going?  I’m recovering from my bath on Wednesday. I hate baths. They scrub me and make me smell like flowers.  I’m supposed to smell like a dog.  I also had my nails trimmed.  I hate people touching my feet.  I know how you feel about showers.   In the meantime I have tried to remedy the dog smell by rolling in the grass.  It helps, you can try that too if the soap leaves a flowery smell.  

I also have been quite successful at finding tomatoes.  They are delicious!  I carefully snatch it off the vine, then run away so mom doesn’t see what I’m doing and then I eat my snack.  I repeat this process until mom makes me come in.  Sometimes I even play a little game of fetch by myself with the tomato.  I toss it in the air and then try and catch it.  When I win, I get to eat it!  This could be a challenge for Dogcabbiah 19!  

Mom and Louie picked about 40 cucumbers today.  I was trying to help discover them, but I then got distracted and went to eat tomatoes.  Tomatoes are much easier to find than cucumbers.  (See above to see what I do with tomatoes.)

I also got a super duper long walk today with Mom and Louie.  We did 2 miles.  I pooped 3 times!  It was an excellent adventure.  I found all sorts of new smells, I tasted some grass and was very tired by the time I came home.  

That’s about it for my exciting day.  I did also find some time to work on patrol and bark at the dogs that dared pass by.  I hope you had a nice day and are feeling much better.   We hope you are fully rested and recovered from your stay at the Health Center.  I hope you have a wonderful Shabbat and enjoy the weekend.

Love, 

Ivy
