The Munchkin is improving!!!!!

The Munchkin is getting better. The medication is horrible - she is sometimes rather miserable after she has been given it but we have to persevere otherwise the parasites will never die. We have also given her Bravecto so will hopefully avoid a recurrence of the dreaded tick bite fever (or Biliay for that matter). She still gets tired easily and sleeps a lot. The good news is that she was bouncing like the Electric Munchkin this morning, true to her name.

While we wait for the course of medication to finish we have been doing fun stuff like swimming in the sea and walking over and under obstacles etc. She even got to walk out on the new Fishing Pier near Snake Park Beach, Durban yesterday evening. The sea was rough but not washing over the pier. I was also amazed at how noisy the waves were. She wasn't bothered at all. In fact, my biggest problem would have been stopping her from jumping into the sea. Fortunately she is level headed and worked out for herself that it wasn't a good idea to try and jump off the pier. She is a water baby and loves water. I suspect she also has a healthy respect for crashing waves. Here is a photo of the Munchkin on the pier. You can see how rough the sea was. We stopped and watched the waves just in front of the fishermen.

When we had finished watching the waves, and talking to the fishermen (the Munchkin is such a beautiful dog, she attracts visitors), we wandered off to the beautiful gardens with water features and steps up and down. She walked up and down steps and around the water features. She posed for photos in front of a beautiful wall.... Doesn't she look beautiful?

Unfortunately, after this, it was time to go home.....
