After the slightly rough period at the end of last week, this week has been far better. It may be that if we over fatigue Poppy she really struggles to pick up, so we have tried to be really careful. Poppy is pretty consistently getting out for her walk to the Play Park, but at the moment we have given up on boots. She seems to have managed to toughen up her feet at the moment, and we went through a phase of her really struggling with her right paw.
Her right paw definitely turns outwards a lot more than her left paw, and when she is tired or it is wet her front paws do get really splayed.
She has taken to "giving up" when we want her to start the return journey - but we think this is just tactical from Poppy, as when you offer her the chance to carry home Abbie's ball, she suddenly perks up.
I have carried her a fair bit this week, but today (Sunday) I took her out with Abbie and she really enjoyed it, and seemed to manage quite well.
She is not keen if we leave her on her own, and she does tend to cry, but the radio being left on seems to help matters.
We may drop her lunchtime feed soon, as she has started on a handful of Chappie complete with her puppy food and thus seems to manage the quantity a bit better.
