Old man walks from the last couple months. I haven't been updating here much lately but Ivan is doing well. We're making progress on his prescribed weight loss and he's about 3 pounds from his goal. He's still going for his short walks, we're still hanging in at about 1.5 miles at the longest before he starts fatiguing. He'll still sprint across the yard after a squirrel but his poor body is so sore afterward. I can't believe this dog got so old so fast.
Along the way home from visiting losech I stopped at the Cleveland Public Library, which had this very cool exhibit, an underground tunnel to a second building of the library, AND most crucially the reason for the stop there; three copies of Primitive Breeds, Perfect Dogs. Someday ill get my own physical copy of it, but for now I have a digital copy of it that I made by. Sitting photographing every page for like two hours. I asked the author before even taking this trip if he was okay with that, as there are no more copies being made ever, and he gave me his direct and explicit permission.
Also there were SEVERAL other cool books there, I could spend months in this library reading. Why is it in Cleveland of all places.
