Still digging


It's been so cold. Roxy and I went on a very quick walk on Friday, but it was so cold, Roxy was back to the car before me, which never happens. But the weekend has been better. Today was especially nice. And it was going great until I heard her yelp. My first thought, out there in the woods, was that she was shot, but then I realized that I hadn't heard a gunshot. Then I thought maybe she got caught in a trap. I ran up the trail and saw her next to a big fallen tree. As soon as I got close enough, I saw that she had a big scratch on her nose and there was blood on the snow. Whoever she had roused had protested! But it didn't stop her - she dug around the tree for at least 10 more minutes!
