I got this photo of our blind Dachshund Callie on a cot in our living room the other afternoon. Callie has been on a diet ever since she arrived here as an overly plump girl, and even though we've reduced her weight, she's still rather … well, expansive. (Yes, we've tested her for thyroid and other medical issues.) But she has lost quite a few pounds in recent months, and it's as if she wanted to show us what she thought was her new sleek and svelte figure. Callie realizes blind Widget has so far won the weight loss competition and maybe she just wanted to prove how many pounds she's shed.
I will admit, I did a double-take when I saw her on the cot looking so slim, and that's why I went to get the camera. I had never seen her looking quite so slender.
Alas, then she rolled over on her side, and … something changed:
Apparently we have a few more pounds to go.
