IRREGULAR NOT

I don't want to embarrass any member of the family but we had something of a poop crisis the last two days.

Booker is as regular as clockwork. One big dump in the AM walk and another in the PM walk. Always the same. Good big biscuits.

And always on the walks. Never in the back yard where Franklin always did his business.

Then, last night no poop. This morning no poop.

Alarms go off.

We think about the vet.

Then, we thought to look out back.

There they are. Two good big biscuits.

I guess anyone is allowed to change their toilet routines. I spent 6 years picking up the dump of the day out back. I can do it again. Maybe Booker could learn to do what this guy is doing.

This is also at a time when Booker is beginning to find recreational purpose out back by himself. He has not done that much so far, preferring, I think to be with us rather than alone. A getting used to being here thing. Or fear of separation. He does have a little of that.

Anyway. No vet. A good walk and play outside in the yard deserves a good dump. All is well with the world. We can rest easy.

Booker is happy because we have quit looking worried and talking about him over his head.
