Muttluks

Since I'm getting HB a nice warm raincoat I figured I'd go ahead and get him a pair of Muttluks for his paws. He's hasn't been made to walk in rain, cold and snow for at least 6 years and now that he's a spry 11 it isn't a bad idea to make the transition to Nordic urban living as easy and as comfortable as possible. I can already see the look of scorn burning holes through my skull as I put them on his paws :)

HB is going to visit the Vet on Wednesday for getting a couple of cysts removed, his nails clipped [ required for flying and he won't let me do it ], a gonadectomy and his round of vaccinations required for entering Finland except for the wormer which will have to wait until a week or three before we fly. I'm a little nervous about his getting an anesthetic for the first time at such an old age but he needs to have all this stuff done. I'll be a bit of a wreck until I can go collect him from the doctor's office. He'll probably guilt me into a week of extra scooby snacks and steak once he comes home and glares at me for leaving him to the Vet for the day :)
