I dag skinnede solen et par timer til morgen. Det fine vejr blev benyttet til at få taget lidt billeder af Felix, den Papillon som er på fitness ferie her hos mig. Desværre fik jeg ikke taget nogen billeder af ham da han var tykkest, når tiden var til det var vejret ikke til det. Men i de måneder han har været her, så har han tabt 1,1 kg., det lyder måske ikke at så meget, men det er meget for en lille fyr som ham.




Today the sun shined for a few hours in the morning. The fine weather was used to get some pictures of Felix, the Papillon who is on fitness vacation here with me. Unfortunately, I had not taken any pictures of him when he was thickest when I had time, the weather was not for it. But in the 2 months he has been here, he have lost 1.1 kg., It may not sound that much, but it's a lot for a little guy like him.

He is 10 years old but still very active, that I have not been accustomed to with my rough collies. When they were 10 years old, everything happening in slow motion, there were nothing urgent. Time was something they had plenty of, and now I see Felix race around for full speed. Incredible so much difference small and medium dogs are. I knew it, but anyway it came to my surprise. Small and medium are both grey-bearded, but theirs activity level are different.
I can not compare with the Sheltie I had 30 years ago, because she died, only 5 years old of leukaemia. But it's fun to compare Felix with my collies. Felix grew up in a home with many rough collies and he thinks he is a rough collie. He welcomes nicely all other dogs we meet, but if he meets a Collie he is very glad and ease and you can clearly see how he feels comfortable with a “co-breed”. He has met other Papillons, but they don’t have his interest, they are not the same breed as him!
Felix is incredibly charming and loving, so he is a really nice little dog to live together with. Felix has many benefits of being on vacation here together with me, he gets plenty of exercise and he loses some weight, but I have just as much benefits of him. I do not lose weight, but he gives me a lot at the social level.
