Now I said Doctor, Mr. MD (well, DVM)
Today was Elka's annul trip the the vet!
It was raining, so we didn't go for our walk prior, as I had planned on doing. I thought perhaps blowing off some of her energy would help her be calm and focused at the vet's office. Not that she's bad at the vet; on the contrary, everybody loves her, and there's so much to look at, and the whole thing doesn't concern her much at all.
But first, we had to get there.

Tennis Balls: Contestant Number One
On Friday, Elka and I took our walk, and then hopped in the car and took a field trip to Tractor Supply.
She was the only dog in the store, and received an overall positive response. She politely sniffed hands to meet people, and did no sled-dog like pulling, and did no jumping. Elka no longer precisely jumps onto people; rather, she stands up on her hind legs so that she might smell their face. It can be disconcerting.
Our primary reason for the trip was to take a trip. Secondary, to get more dog food. And third, it was the prime opportunity to get a doggie tennis ball!
