The cats are no problem to him, and they are adjusting to the new arrival. Strong willed? He is a Cairn, would one have him any different? He responds to what he is told and behaved beautifully on this morning's walk. Not too far in the beginning, we have to build him up to the longer ones, I think. He is wearing the Elizabethan collar until the itches heal, but that is no problem. He doesn't have to wear it on his walks twice a day. Shorter walks in the evening than morning. Did you know he loves to play in the hose water. Champ is a great Cairn. Thank you so very much for allowing Champ to become a part of my life.

I am of good health and longevity genes. I take no prescription meds and do take Advil occasionally for arthritis. I have had both knees and hips replaced and walk a couple of miles every morning. I am very active, helping middle school who have difficulty reading and aid with fund raisers for the school. Don't worry...Champ will always be well cared for.
