And in case you are wondering, Walter wanted all of the squirrels to know that he is back on duty as the enclosed picture shows. Squirrels can enter his back yard at their peril!

Back on Duty!!
It's been a bit over seven months since Walter's surgery. He has healed well. He still needs to get back in shape, but he is moving well and we've been taking him for more walks. Kitty has been taking him for some hikes in the Briones open space. He's been doing some four mile hikes with a couple of stops to swim in the pond. It leaves him pretty tired, but VERY happy.

From Behind Enemy Lines
Top secret squirrel training camp video sent to me by one of my deep undercover agents, code name "Velo Bella". I can't reveal his or her true identity without compromising their safety.
Homeland Security has raised the threat level to "Grey".

Hair Club for Dogs
All is well in Walterland. We are going for more and longer walks and he seems to be healing very well! Of course, the squirrels are still out there plotting against him, but he's got that situation well under control.
His fur is growing back except for two small spots and we are starting to wonder if he's going to need hair plugs, or a toupee, or maybe... The Hair Club for Dogs? Is this an idea who's time has come?
What do you think?
He is of course, still very handsome.

Turkey Day
Our friends Liz, Harlan and Mark spent Thanksgiving with us. Liz and Harlan brought their dog Alice who coincidently had a TPLO surgery on her right knee about four or five weeks after Walter. Unfortunately she doesn't have a blog of her own. None the less, her recovery is coming along quite nicely.
She made herself right at home...
Lately the squirrels have become even more bold than usual. They have taken to walking up on our deck as they seem to know that we won't let Walter out to chase them. In a few months they may be in for a rude surprise!
Meanwhile, here is one squirrel that knows it's place... Behind bars!
We had waffles and pancakes before our big Turkey Day bike ride. Guess who wanted some for himself...

Eight Week Check Up
Walter had his 8 week check up last friday. Okay, it's been 10 week's, but we had scheduling problems and couldn't get in until then. Anyway, other than the fact that Walter hates going to the vet, things went well. Dr. Beebee was very pleased with Walter's progress. He showed me the x-rays and you could see that his bone is healing very well. Good news all around!
Dr. Beebee measured Walter for a knee brace and we're trying to decide if it's something that Walter will put up with wearing as it's quite substantial as you can see in the link below!
