Uschi the Weimaraner http://www.uschi-dog.co.uk A blog about a dog Mon, 02 Jan 2012 11:56:19 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 Whoops! http://www.uschi-dog.co.uk/2012/01/02/whoops/ http://www.uschi-dog.co.uk/2012/01/02/whoops/#comments Mon, 02 Jan 2012 11:56:19 +0000 Alison http://www.uschi-dog.co.uk/?p=678 Sorry I’ve been rubbish at keeping Uschi’s blog updated recently!

We visited family in Merseyside over Christmas and let Uschi have a run on the beach.  Her left foreleg is still a problem with the osteoarthritis but occasional walks off-lead don’t seem to cause too much of a problem for her :)

This is us on Christmas morning after our early walk that started just as the sun was rising :)

And this was a couple of days later on another walk at the same beach :)

You can see how bent the joint is in her left foreleg in the last shot, but at least she can still enjoy an occasional run on the beach!  We are still expecting for her to need an operation to stabilise the joint in the future, but for now she is coping OK :)

Happy New Year!

Uschi is a bit fed up today, she’s got a poorly tummy and is refusing to eat any food. She loves being wrapped in a blanket when she’s feeling sorry for herself!

Comfy?

Peering over the wall to see what’s going on.

Some people say that we spoil Uschi. I don’t know what they mean?!

There is a photograph of William Wegman holding Flo – it reminded me of this photograph of Uschi way back in February 2006!
