A walk to the park and other milestones (VIDEO)

I am happy to say that the worst of the allergy attack seems to be over. The swelling in Bohdi's face has gone down significantly and he is no longer trying to rub his face off on the carpet. It sounds funny but is literally what was going on.  He is 100% on the new food (Avoderm) and is still loving it.  We plan to keep him on the antihistamine until Monday when I will call the vet and ask if it is okay to take him off of it.

Today we took a walk to the park (video below). It is only a block away from the house but still I was nervous because there are dogs and sounds to get really excited about and I didn't want any jumping.  We stayed near the sidewalk and away from the playground area just to be safe. Once there we meandered around and strolled to various trees he frequently "marked" before the surgery. It was a success and I think we will walk that way more often now. He is so happy and distracted that I think he uses his leg more naturally while there. 

As for me, I waddle along behind for now. He is a good boy not to pull me too much, even though he is soooo excited. I would definitely take a spill if he cared to bolt off after something.

He is off the leash to use the "potty" when outside. Yay. I need to get him over to Petsmart for a bath soon before the baby comes. Possibly the hose will warm up enough for a home bath.
