    Yesterday afternoon Bess was running for her ball when she managed to go head over heels and has been limping ever since. We had her at the vet this morning and he thinks it is just a strained shoulder and has prescribed an anti - inflammatory and rest for a few days - so no flyball this week. Luckily it is a lovely day here so she is happy to lie in the sun and relax. We weren't sure if she would need x-rays so she didn't have her breakfast before the vets and we had to put up with those pleading eyes.

    Bess is slowly improving. It has been lovely weather so it has been easy to keep Bess calm as she loves lying out in the sunshine. I'm the one missing the walks!
