Sunshine!

The sun is finally out and it's officially summer!

Yesterday, Jon and I went on a long walk to get ice cream on the pier and brought Ellie along. She was happy to be taken on a walk, but a little lethargic due to the warmth, and the fact that I made her wear her Halti. It was a nice after-work adventure (and tasty)!

There were a few times that I felt really badly for Ellie and her Halti - including a time that she spotted a pigeon. Her ears perked up.
Her eyes narrowed in.
She started to lower her body in "stalk" mode.
She was ready to pounce as soon as I gave a little tug on the leash to redirect her head. I could practically hear her sigh and say "mom, I hate this head collar thing."
