Strider is off on new Adventures, back in time!

Today Began a grand new and exciting adventure as he flew back to Colorado back to his program to finish  his training.  Flying across timezones he is now 2 hours behind us and we have a running joke of him going back in time to his program.  So naturally we couldn't resist a photo opp the day before his flight!His journey back began at 4 Am with breakfast water and a nice long run out before we made our way to the airport He was very calm and flew united petsafe! Strider made it safely and was right at home back with his program! He will be greatly missed and i will be eagerly awaiting the completion of his training and his return home!  i know he is in the best hands!!!  Thank you So much to Elaine and Hedy for all their hard work and support and for continuing his training! I really can't say enough amazing things about his program Strider I miss you a whole bunch but I know your in great hands. see you again soon!  Strider has many amazing adventures ahead of him on his journey and I will keep you as updated as I can!

Sunday

Mothers day this year was a good day.  Strider stayed at home while I went out with nom. After i got home we spent some time at the local beach/park

     We went swimming again this time with a life vest and he did much better today, even let himself float some!!!!I am so vry proud of him we hd an amazing time!

  

Strider of coarse was his silly and playful self. he seemed to be ok in the water but it wasnt favourite thing. He much more enjoyed exploring and  hill climbing

Saterday- Striders first swim

 Today Strider did so so in training class, after class we had a bit of a busy relaxing day, hard to explain, but in the evening we went to the beach and took him for his first swim! it was almost magical for me, though he seemed rather unimpressed with this large body of water.  still he went in with nim with out an issue  and swam a bit, we only stayed a few minutes and he seemed pretty hesitant to become boyant but  time will hopefully help him get more accustomed to swimming :) Still over all we had a really great day!
