I have mentioned several times in the past that Honey walks most mornings. When she started out several years ago, she could barely do a half mile; now she walks four miles several mornings each week.
Well, she did until yesterday.
She was at the far end of her loop, a little over a mile from home, when she was bitten by a dog. The animal, a blue heeler named Dakota, had barked at her from the yard, then after she passed, it ran out of the driveway and bit her on the ankle.
We spent over three hours in the ER yesterday afternoon where Honey got a tetanus shot, antibiotics and pain meds. By the time we got back home, her ankle was so sore she could barely function.
It is better this morning, but I don’t think she will be walking around the block any time soon.
