Really good news that you are back to walking, @becsbuddy! Oh, to still have a Poppy friend walking companion even stopping to investigate every blade of grass! I Know I could adopt an older dog but dog ownership requires more time and attention than that of Precious whenever trips are on the horizon so I yearn but don't adopt. Nothing much better than spending face-to-face time with a friend unless it is sharing a meal together especially when the friend is bringing the dinner. Best of the Best! Enjoy!
