The human is starting to spend a few minutes out of her bedroom so we are careful not to give her too much excitement.

The human survived her appendectomy and is home recovering. Once her tummy heals up more in a few days, we will go snuggle her but for now she's locked away in the bedroom. Good things she is kennel trained.

Quick update on the human! CT scan has shown improvement of her appendix. She goes in Tuesday for her appendectomy and then in 2-3 weeks, should be able to start living life again without worry of it rupturing again. Here's a big spider she helped save.

Sister has apparently been taking yoga lessons. Human must have dropped some crumbs on her office chair and when journey jumped behind her on the chair, noticed them and got distracted mid jump.

Almost had a new brother today! Hobbs is a dog from around the corner and a few houses down. He escaped and came to visit but the human wouldn't let us say hello (eat) to a strange dog. The human fell in love almost immediately.

The human has been cleaning and is slowly finding different ribbons and awards I've earned over the years. At some point she wants to have a whole wall of our adventures.

The maples in the backyard dropped their leaves in a single panic which left a nice little blanket of leaves underneath them. Which color do you think suits Me better? If I lay down and don't move, I blend in perfectly with the red leaves and become invisible.

It's called horse power. Yeehaw!

Ran the 1 dog bike and the 1 dog scooter class! It was weird running with people that aren't in my family but we had clean runs and that's what counts. The human was support staff since she is on restricted activity.

Redpaws Dirty Dog Dryland Derby weekend!! The human brought pumpkins, and it's getting cold enough tonight that I am in bed with her for camping so neither of us freeze.

One of my friends is making fun mushing shirts but needs 10 preorders before they can move forward with it. The material is very soft and sizes seem to be a little on the larger size. The human usually wears a medium but will be getting a small. forms.gle/ZPrdycjxS7Tt...

LAST CALL for Redpaw Dirty Dog Dryland Derby this weekend. You don't want to miss it! runsignup.com/Race/WI/Pear...

All registered for the Redpaw Dirty Dog Dryland Derby next weekend. Hopefully the human is feeling up to running in the 1 dog bikejoring class.

Family snuggles. All voluntary participants too!

Since human is out of commission with appendicitis, human husband competed in the 1 dog bikejoring class with me at a fun race this weekend. We did 1.4 miles in 6 min 57 seconds which is crazy for a dog with 4 inch legs. favorite sport ever.

The human husband did the fun race with me today so that she could focus on not making her appendicitis worse. Fun was had by all!

(human) I am on antibiotics for the next week to help bring down the inflammation on my angry appendix. I go in on 6 weeks for another CT scan to see if it's safer to operate at that point. Doc said I am still good to bike and live life and to listen to my body.

The human is very bummed that she's not able to go bikejoring while the trail colors at absolute peak color. She did find some nice plants in the yard waste drop off and that helped her feel better.

(human) Had a CT scan done. Left to get a celebratory burrito. Within 20 minutes, a doc called. I have appendicitis. My body managed to seal off the infection/angry bits and it's why I'm feeling better. Waiting on a call to schedule to meet with the surgeon to discuss getting this bad boy removed.

The human is at the hospital for a CT scan to see if they can find why she was having issues. She's feeling better! We won't be at Byllesby but will be at the Dirty Dog Warm Up Race since it's closer to home in case she starts feeling rough again. Photo of contrast juice the human had to drink.

Between the hot weather and the human having a mystery illness, we've had a lazy 2 weeks except for the hike human's hubby took us on and we traumatized him. Today's run - I am a rock star who knows exactly what I need to do and not distracted by much. Journey... is just along for the ride

Unfortunately we will not be at the UP200 dryland dash this year. The human has been dealing with a bunch of stomach pain and won't be up for it. I've been giving her snuggles today to help her feel better.

The human had me behave for sunflower pictures. Then I misbehaved and ate a sunflower.

New collar day!

If we had shirts made, would you be interested in this design? Waiting on pricing but guessing it'll be around $30 and would be getting made by a local business, not a third party company. Also trying to source stickers.

I want second dinner. Sister wants a second throw. We are not the same.

(human) Playing around with a little poster for the mutts. I'm looking to update the name to be more of a group rather than dog specific. Our other accounts vary with Blue and Friends, RunMuppyRun & TheDogPlant. Trying to stick with a merle/mold but haven't found one that just feels right.

The human got some cool blue/grey lights and was testing out the sound based colors. You gotta turn up the volume. This is what I live with.

Just another fun day trying to convince sister to run in the same direction as me

The weather is finally getting cooler and the humans are much more active with us. Sister and I would fetch until we collapse so the humans have to tell us to stop. Hopefully it gets cooler more so we can start running again

I guess human has office cats now.

Hiiii

The human says I look cute with pointy ears

Throwback Thursday! This is from when my old sister was back in her prime. We had the same dad so this is where I get my tenacity from.

Turns out my sister isn't a hyena, she's a skinwalker

Sister had a rough day in the office. It's too hot out to play fetch so she was stuck inside with air conditioning.

Bubelz.

Zoom

Finally have the sprinter van fixed up! To celebrate the human is taking us on an overnight adventure. Can't wait for dryland racing this fall

Sister is learning the ropes of office dogging. The human is going to need a bigger chair...

Throwback to before I started gaining my wisdom greys.

the human has been busy gardening and I've been helping! here are her favorite begonias that I'm not allowed to touch because plants don't like toothy hugs.

The human likes to over winter plants in her basement. By spring time, a good chunk of them look dead and another chunk look like they are holding on by a membrane. Her theory is they aren't dead until they are warm, wet and dead 30 days later. Look who is showing signs of life!!

Finally had our first trip with the van for an adventure that didn't end in a surprise mechanic visit! Powers Bluff in Arpin WI has some awesome mountain biking trails and hooking trails. Highly recommend this hidden jewel.

Human placed came 5 out of 5 racers for the Enduro race & 6/7 for cross country race but had fun, didn't crash & beat a bunch of her personal records so it's a win! At this rate, the human will be so in shape for fall depend racing that I won't have to do all the work.

The human and I are both plant obsessed. She likes to grow them, I like to destroy them. Here she is with the vines she cut off a giant plant.

Even after crashing last week, the human is still riding every day, or multiple times a day to get in shape for this fall. She's going to a human mountain bike race this month and is sad that she can't be Mupp-E-Powered

I have been tasked with removing another stump

Making really good progress on removing this tree

The human went with me to a fun community bike event and we did a 3 mile ride. Afterwards we hung out on the grass to decompress. There's lots of other dogs here but they are too excitable for me so I told them off. Journey has been a bad influence on me.
