A Very Much Over-due Pup-Date

Maple is growing like a weed. She is now approximately 14kg (30lbs), tall, slim and leggy. Because she is so long she can reach up well onto the kitchen counter and steal anything and everything that might be up there.

She now also loves playing in the water. Unfortunately she gets car sick, and the river is a 10 minute car ride away along the highway. It is not far enough that she actually vomits, but far enough that she feels nauseated and miserable. So even though she loves all the places that we take her in the car she now avoids the car and does anything she can to avoid a car ride because she knows that the car makes her sick. However, we keep persevering with these short rides to very fun places in the hope that she will outgrow it.

Sorry for the video footage, but we forgot the good camera and just used the phone to take the following video of Maple and Gromit playing in the Murray River 2 weeks ago.
