So Wednesday we went for a walk, only to find the dog park was closed. Not to worry: we walked most of the way home, which was about a mile.  Thursday was my rest day.

I won&#8217;t be the only deprived creature in this household.<\/p>\n<p>But later my mom picked up Ophelia. &#8220;Not that heavy,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Maybe your fur has just gotten fluffier with all the healthy food?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, right. Come on, Mom. You eat carefully. You measure my rations. Creampuff has a metabolism that keeps her skinny. Let&#8217;s get Ophelia into the loop. <\/p>\n<p>So what do YOU think?
