SPRING

Today was the first time this year I sat out on my balcony! It isn't warm but it is very nice spring weather outside. I am trying to enjoy it as much as possible because on Friday I leave to go skiing in Zakopane and when I come back on Sunday night it is going to be snowing here in Warsaw. I want spring to come and stay!

I have been trying to eat a full and healthy breakfast the last 3 days, hope it sticks!

Kabaty

I went out for about 1 ½h with Daisy today, we went through the normal forest and then I dared to enter the Kabaty forest, which I have been thinking for 1 ½ years that you are not allowed to have dogs in. I realized today that you just have to have them on leach.

After that I have just been doing microbiology, it was just decided that we are going to split up our next exam because it was to big, so one part is already on Wednesday and I am gone all weekend so it is time to study hard core now!

Every 3rd day

Went out jogging yesterday! Everyone is being so good and getting gym memeberships, but I can't decide which gym and I am not sure that I have time when I barely have enough time with Daisy.

Anyway, I jogged for about 30min, tried to keep a upbeat tempo but Daisy is in bad shape too so I was dragging her around. I also did 30 squats and 50 stepback lunges. I have decided to start jogging every 3rd day, so next time is on Thursday which is perfect because on Friday I go to Zakopane with the Norwegians!

Love couple

I am watching Marley today, so Daisy is having a sleepover! Both have been walked, bathed, cut claws, combed and woolcombed! Time for another walk and food soon. 

Posers!

Daisy's schedule

On Mondays and Thursdays I go in school for like 9h or more so I don't see Daisy that much, which is sad. I have time for a walk with Marley and Daisy on Mondays but on Thursdays 2 supergreat first year girls take them out! 

I have noticed that that dog is quite good at holding grudges. Every time I come to pick her up when she is with other dogs and I greet the other dogs more than her she gets sooo grumpy the rest of the evening. It is hilarious but I feel so bad! 

At Marley's in the morning!

So fashionable in her reflector vest

She was so happy to get her side of the bed back after my friends visiting!

Wolf hybrid

2 days ago as I was on my way home walking out of the campus I saw a beautiful wolf hybrid in the middle of a big high traffic road. It didn't care for humans so I had to run out in the street directing it back towards the grass before the light turned green for the cars.

After a while of following it to see that it wouldn't run out in the street again I somehow convinced it to keep around me so I walked to the clinic and after a while of walking nearby the canine I was allowed to be very close to it and I managed to put my favorite scarf around it. The canine was a bit scared and not to happy at first but I think it new it was safe with me. I walked into the clinic and the receptionist got a little panicked and called vets and other people.

It looked starved and had rolled in diarrhea. I got a collar and leach so I could switch the scarf out, as I was doing this very carefully so the canine would freak out and run loose in the clinic or bite me a stupid vet comes and starts to prod the dog while I am still sitting right in front of it and haven't got the collar on yet. I just froze and tried to tell him to stop, I don't think he realized it was wild at first. Of course he didn't know English so finally I just said POOOP and he backed off when he realized that.

They took the canine away, they were going to take it to a bigger clinic and call the police. I got to wash off the poo I had on my hands and realized that that beautiful creature is going to be euthanized. I got very sad,  so mom tried to tell me how it probably was sick already because it was walking around humans and felt it could be around me, and that I might have helped it from getting hit by a car and have injuries or die painfully. I think I understand that now, but it still hurts to know that after I left it was left in a stressful environment.

Oh yeah, I threw out that favorite scarf.

Warning: dead animals

Today very many are going out to drink and dance because it is the first weekend of this semester, I am not one of them. At the moment I am mentally exhausted and sick, and this is my first weekend alone in a month! Today I have just been laying around watching tv-series.

Tomorrow is the graduation of the 6th year students, you had to sign up if you wanted to go, and I did but as said before I need the rest. So I am watching the dogs and having a study-day instead. 

We started topographical anatomy today (with dead animals though), we are having short seminars every week and I got the subjects "anatomical features for canine elbow dysplasia" and "conditions of subcutaneal, intravenous, intraarterial and intramuscular injections". I am looking forward to it! I got a magazine about elbow dysplasia in dog in the fall from a family friend so that is great!

All the animals died in a calm and good way, there was no pain.
