Weekend Part 1

Roxy and Bella

On Friday morning we went to the Sports Grounds and chased the birds.

This thing was mowing the Cricket grounds....Look Frankie and Ernie...It's a John Deere!!


 Saturday morning we went to the Devil's Elbow as usual.

Kelly was allowed off the truck so she and Roxy could race to the river.
 We saw lots of these little Red Rump Parrots.
 Went swimming...
 Kelly and Roxy raced around like maniacs. 
 They were crazy girls.  Roxy finally just lay down exhausted.  She had bits of fur missing from her neck, and on her legs.

For the first time, she didn't try to get out of a bath.
Then she slept for a long time.
We think she may have hurt her leg, she favoured it.  She was very subdued all day, looking pitiful 
 and didn't jump around as she usually does.
We just let her sleep and watched her.
 She was back to her usual self this morning.

  21. How fun! OMD! Glad Roxy is feeling better and Mr. Fox once tried to attack a machine like that John Deere in the park. Even though he was on the leash, I walked over to the thing and the man on it was laughing at the sight of such a little dog trying to take on the big machine. You girls are so well behaved being able to go off leash and have fun like that. Wish we could come play with you!
