Tough patient

So a few days after the big ice storm, dad took us out hiking. There was still some ice in the woods and Indy managed to cut his foot pretty bad and he had to go to the vet for some liquid stitches and to get his foot wrapped. Mom was smart and stuck one of my winter running shoes on him so he wouldn't eat off the wrapping. 

Over the last 1 week 1/2 dad has had to clean and re-wrap Indy's foot a couple of times to make sure it continues to heal. The easiest way for dad to do it, is to put Indy on his back in his lap..well as you can see, by the time dad is done cleaning and re-wrapping his foot, Indy is very distraught. So much so that he has completely fallen asleep!

What a big baby!

Zzzzzz....

Mom and Dad keep using new words around us... like pregnant, baby, sonogram. Not sure exactly what they are talking about, but the other day dad brought home a present for mom. Whoo hoo... if new things like this keep coming in, I'm all about it. I love this new pillow!

Spoiled

So we don't think we're spoiled, but we might be..just a little. The trails haven't been in the best of shape lately for riding, so dad has started taking us out running every morning. It has become our favorite thing to do! Once we see him getting ready, we can hardly sit still! Look at Ryder having a blast chasing me!

I think I look pretty good myself..I might not be as agile as Ryder, but I'm sure fast on the straightaways.

Then, of course, afterwards...its cuddle naptime.

Houdini Dog

So mom and Ryder went out one day for about an hour and when mom came home she stopped dead in her tracks and looked very confused...and then started hysterically laughing? What...? I don't get whats so funny.



(For those of you who aren't getting it...the tray is the bottom of my crate that I lay on..but don't think I'm going to tell you the secret to my trick!)

War Eagle!

So althought this was a bad season for us and we lost our coach on top of it all (which I think stinks!)...I still love my team.

Indy's light eyes

What a handsome boy I am....look into my eyes. They're a lighter shade than most ridgebacks, almost golden colored.

Ryder graduates!

So mom has been taking me to agility class for the last 7 weeks and it has been pretty fun, although I am a bit of a scaredy-cat and wouldn't do certain things at first. I DEFINITELY wasn't going into that scary red dark wrinkly tunnel!!!

But, after awhile, it started not to seem so bad. So after mom and my coach, Beth, both crawled halfway into the tunnel and had some really good yummy treats, I decided to give it a try.
HOW EASY! I really don't know why mom was so excited..it only took me 7 weeks to even attempt it, whats the big deal?

Don't I look like a pro?






Look..I'll even do it again. Whatever I need to do for some yummy liver. Lets see you try and look this good Indy boy!



I'm such a rock star!
