In my lack of posting of late, I neglected to mention that Yara and I passed our six month anniversary last month. (Also, how did it get to be July already?) I’d been expecting a follow-up evaluation, but have as yet heard nothing regarding it. When I called Fidelco, Des admitted they’re a bit backlogged with follow-ups. Oh, well. I’m sure they’ll get out here eventually.
The food saga continues. I actually postponed the vet visit until this coming Tuesday in part because of this. She is doing better with consistently eating for the most part, but honestly if I had to guess I’d say she’s probably lost more weight. It’s incredibly disconcerting. She’s not exhibiting any signs of being sick or infested by anything, but we’ll see what the vet has to say.
We went to the fireworks last night at the Empire State Plaza and they were very lovely. Yara was very good with all the distractions and only mildly alarmed by the fireworks and the noise. Her biggest issue was that anytime there was a lull in the show, she kept figuring that meant we were going home and she’d get up and be all silly. It was very cute.
And, finally, as promised the long awaited photos I keep being too lazy to post! First up are some of the “outtakes” from the portrait shoot back in May. I have the right one (second photo) framed on my desk at work, though, I’m a bit disturbed that I only now just noticed it kind of looks like she’s licking my chest in it!

Anyway, here’s a picture of Yara with Dolly’s rejected birthday gift ginormous bone:
And last, but certainly not least, some puppy pictures sent to me by Tom and Patty:
