Nox’s New Backpack

July 4, 2021 I ordered a backpack to carry Nox in after the long walk that hurt her footpads. Her footpads have recovered, but we have learned our lesson. We will now take the dog backpack with us and when she seems to get tired, into the backpack, she will go. We took Nox on […]

Nox With a Cone of Shame

June 28, 2021 Last week, we noticed that Nox had licked her right front foot so much that she had a “hot spot.” That is, she had licked a spot on her foot raw; she has a red and slightly swollen spot on her foot. To keep Nox from licking the hot spot, we first […]

Afternoon Walk in Park Near RV

June 20, 2021 Yesterday, Bruce, Nox and I went for a walk. We headed into the neighborhood north of the RV park. As we walked to the neighborhood, we passed a prairie dog colony. The prairie dogs barked as we walked by. Nox was very interested in the prairie dogs, but we convinced her that […]

Hail Storm Pounds RV

June 13, 2021 We had a hailstorm this afternoon. It was loud, almost as if we were in a popcorn pan. Poor little Nox was frightened by all the racket and she wanted a pick up. Bruce held her and she calmed right down. She was no longer frightened as she snuggled into Bruce’s arms. […]

Star K Ranch Open Space

June 13, 2021 We decided to do some exploring near the campground today. We made a 8 to 10 minute drive to Star K Ranch Open Space and took Nox for a walk. Dogs are not allowed in the wetlands area, but they are allowed in other parts of the park.

Nox Upside Down

June 13, 2021 Just thought I’d share these two pictures of Nox on her back, with her feet in the air.

Nox with Her Summer Trim

May 23, 2021 Yesterday, at the RV, Bruce and I trimmed and washed Nox to get her ready for the summer. She quickly forgave us after she got a treat and a walk for being such a good dog. The pictures below show Nox with her summer trim.

Early Morning at the Dakota RV Park

May 1, 2021 This morning, as we took Nox for a walk up the ridge, we were serenaded by meadowlarks. I love their flute like song. One of meadowlarks perched on top of the rock ridge and I was able to get a few pictures before he flew off. I was looking around the outside […]

Backyard Visitors Excite Nox

April 28, 2021 This morning, as Bruce was walking by the French doors on the way to the kitchen for coffee, he happened to look into the backyard. What he saw caused him to freeze. He said, “There is a duck on the outdoor kitchen.” I got my phone ready to take pictures and I […]

Nox Trying Out the Carpeted RV Steps

April 5, 2021 After we carpeted the RV steps, Nox was a lot more comfortable using the steps. Here’s a couple of pictures of her bounding up the steps.
