Wednesday Whinnies!


Violette: Pretty Neighs, Everyone! I have had a busy week! After the dentist came early last week, the vet, Dr. R (Dr. C's husband!) came to see me on Saturday morning to give me my rhinopneumonitis booster and take a look at a sarcoid I have on one of my inner back legs. The treatment was in fact simple: he tied an elastic band tightly around it and it should fall off of its own accord!


I was a really good girl for the vet and #1 took this pretty cute picture of me afterwards, as I was having my snack:


Then the weather improved a bit for a couple of days, so #1 rode me again!


She had to be a little bit careful as I am what they call "in heat" at the moment so I am pretty ticklish! But we really enjoy stepping out together!



Vidock: One of these days, #1 is going to get on MY back, but I apparently need to learn a little more in the way of manners first... What could they possibly mean?


In the meantime, there are some yummy snacks for me to enjoy in the field!


I tell you! There's nothing like a fresh leaf or ten!

And how about this "Greek God" effect?


Or my famous "Mona lisa" smile?????

  11. Vidock tu es absolument magnifique...
    De profil tu es impressionnant, royal. Et j'adore la jolie tache rose sur le bout du nez...
    J'espère que Violette et toi vous allez enfin pouvoir avoir un terrain sec.

  12. Violette, we are sure that rhino whatever shot is not as bad as its name sounds and we are glad that #1 takes such good care of you.

    Vidock, you handsome dude, we just know that one day we are going to see portraits of you hanging in Le Louvre.

  14. We are filled with envy that the vet comes to you, Violette!

    Wait...that didn't sound right...no vet is the best! But you know what we mean.

    Both of you are simply stunning. Vidock, you mind your P's and Q's and soon you can out go and explore the countryside with #1.
