Return Home
Journey to a Seeing Eye dog

I ended up going to bed around 10 or so last night, and then woke up at close to 5. I started packing, then had feed water park, where she peed. Then I finished packing except for the clothes I'm wearing, this laptop, and a few other small things, I think, I hope, because if there's much more, it ain't gonna fit. I'm nervous but excited to go home. I think Ellie is quite confused as to why I'm packing up both our stuff, but she seems okay overall. I think I'm more a budnle of nerves than she is. Breakfast was egg puffs with 3 cheeses, toast, and coke. We loaded up at 8, and went over to Chester to do some heavy traffic work, which she did great at, even got several crazy traffic checks. Then we went to Starbux, which I had never been to before, and was amazing. We came back to the house and did another session of tap tap, which she did great at, we were actually doing off leash obedience in the hallway and she was responsive to me, which was super nice to see. We had water park, and she did both. Now she's at the vets getting her 2nd dose of Ocernia for her ear infection. She came back and we both took a short knap and are waiting for lunch time. Lunch was monty Christo sliders, carrot cake, and coke. We loaded up at 1 after a park time when she peed. We went to the DTC, turned right out of the alley, crossed Market, turned right, walked to south, turned left, walked to park, turned right and crossed South, and walked down to Playa Bowls where I got a strawberry banana smoothie. Then we came back out turned right, walked up to South, crossed, turned left, crossed Park, walked a block to market, crossed, turned right, walked to Maple, turned left, and down to the DTC. Now we just have free time until 4, when she's getting her feathers trimmed and her tags fixed. I'm actually going to wrap this up a little early but will write another entry once we're home. We have the trim and tags coming up at 44, then feed water park, then dinner which is terioki chicken, rice, and coke for me, then we're doing tap tap in the free run, and I'll finish packing, take a bath, have 8 o'clock park, and then to bed since we'll be up super early. I'm ready, but I'm nervous and excited at the same time. We can do this thing.
