Overweight? Moi?

Gym✔️

Watched lots of the Games coverage after my exercise. Those cycling races are crazy!

We took Archie for his yearly check up and vaccination. And what a wimp he was! He used to rush in when he was a puppy, but after a few not so nice experiences now he has to be carried in. He started whimpering long before the syringe appeared. But the news is that he's TOO FAT. Well, next time he goes, his weight must not have gone up again. Soooo, he's on a diet.

As if to confirm this unfit state, he couldn’t be bothered keeping up with his running between us and only did it a couple of times. JR claimed he was puffing. Certainly, when his legs are wet and skinny, he looks like a wee fat pig.

This afternoon a new prospective dog borrower arrived to meet him/us. Archie was on his best behaviour, didn’t bark, didn’t go and hide, but went through his entire repertoire of tricks several times. The young man was suitably enchanted, and declared his intention of taking him out every Friday, and his preferred walks are Blackford Hill and Arthur's Seat. Great! That'll help getting some weight off, Arch.

I should really join you...
