The Excercise Yard

After the first week of convalescence Luna is starting to get cabin fever. Being restricted to the back yard on a leash has her looking at me with a lopsided grin. Whenever I prepare her to go out in the yard I can actually hear her thinking “REALLY”. We have beaten down a circular path around the yard that restricts her over-exuberant activity level to a slow walk. Safety does not enter the mind of the typical wolfhound to the chagrin of Sue and I. She is completely oblivious to her recent injury. It looks like a part in the movie "Shawshank Redemption” myself or Sue as one of the bulls (guard) and Luna at the end of her tether pacing the yard.

   On a brighter note the girl had her stitches out today. (you may notice my jump into the future). All is well, no sign of infection and her temperature was normal. Of course she was the centre of attention again, even though there was a two legged dog at the vet. One gentleman came up and asked who was breading Dire Hounds in the area. Fans of “Game of Thrones” may recognize this reference to the giant hounds of that series.

 Tethered Luna in her exercise yard. Based on the online picture of a DireHound (which looks more like a wolf then a Wolf Hound) there is no chance that Luna can look like that.
I have never seen her with that shade of red nn her eyes.
