The Coop had another good week. More learning the rules of the road at the Phillips ranch. He's been coming to work with me every day. The guys at the office have excepted him as our resident mascot.
Weather was wonderful last week so Boone showed him where the pond was and that it's perfectly fine to trot down to the water and take a dip whenever you please. Also it must be the best drinking water a dog can drink...as soon as the ice is off, water bowls are basically unacceptable to use as a form of hydration.
Walks in the woods are becoming longer and more enjoyable. He's figuring out that I'm boring and there's much more to see and smell than chewing at my heels.
The farm cat has lost all patience with coop. At this point he's unable to defend his own food bowl. You can see the expression in his face as he waits for her to get her fill of puppy chow..."some day cat, some day this will end!" But a quick lunge at Coop and his tail is tucked and scampering off to Boone for protection.
