Lucy returns the ball for another toss and fetch.
A tired dog is a good dog.

Throw the ball!

. . . I contacted CoCoRaHS to replace this rain gauge funnel, after Lucy turned it into a chew toy.

On a cold winter day Lucy dozes in front of the window, on the day bed in the cozy man cave.

We spend a fair amount of time working Lucy by playing Chuck-it! Here she comes in to scoop up a ball and return to us for yet another toss.

And Lucy does, loudly and forcefully.

Fitzi and Lucy playing. They have recently played more; it is good to see that they are getting along well enough to play nicely. We hoped that Lucy and Fitzi would play well and take pressure off of senior Achilles, allowing Chili Dog to engage or not as he wants.

Fitzi looks over Lucy’s back during a pause in a play session.

Lucy keeps a sharp eye out for squirrels or any other animals that might dare to trespass in our back yard.
