Man's Best Friend! by shepherdmanswife

Man's Best Friend!

Lesia, our faux wolf, from Wolf on Bardon Hill photo (thank you all for getting it to PP) would follow @shepherdman anywhere he goes.
This photo was also taken last Monday. I hope you're not too bored with them yet, but I've had a long week at work, dark at both ends of the day, so haven't had much chance or inclination to get out there and take more photos!
This is one of the last walks that Lesia is having for a while. She forgets that at almost 10 years old, she's an old lady, not a puppy. After a vigourous play session with rescue dog Tia, she spent the day at the vets . Had an x-ray on her rear leg. Her knee is terribly swollen, but no broken bones, just tendon and tissue damage. So, bed rest for 1 week with painkillers and anti-inflammatory, then get reviewed.
She's not going to like that! Neither is Tia, as it was no doubt her fault that Lesia injured herself. Tia will keep teasing and teasing Lesia until she plays with her.
Love this shot, faithful friend and her owner. Fav.

Poor old lady, I hope she gets better soon. Old age can be cruel but at least she's young at heart.

I really like the atmosphere in this and the fluffy rear end. What a shame that Lesia is now rest bound - must be really hard for a dog. Hope she makes a speedy recovery!
November 8th, 2013  
This is a beautiful shot
She is not going to like the enforced bed rest!
November 8th, 2013  
What a beautiful shot! I love the compositon. Good luck with keeping her still
November 8th, 2013  
Oh, I hope she's feeling better soon. I love the feeling in this shot -- the mood is so relaxed and sort of intimate.

Lovely capture, great pov and framing, fav for me! I love seeing pictures of the dogs and hearing about them and i'm definitely not bored. Hope Lesia's swelling goes down that she will once more be able to do the things she loves.

Stunning capture. Wishing Lesia a speedy recovery. Not nice when one of the fur kids is hurting. Hopefully Tia will realise that her playmate is under the weather!
