Huge mountains. Mini doxie. Follow mom.

This was back when we sometimes let Tootsie walk off leash in the mountains--yikes--something we haven't done since we realized just how many marmots Tootsie might hunt.

The Matterhorn & Flight Practice
The most famous Swiss mountain as seen from the Italian side.
Italians call the Matterhorn "Cervino."
It's gianormous and amazing and made our hearts go flippy flop.
P.S. Mom says I need to open my eyes during flight practice!

Swiss Sunday Walkies in Avers Valley, Switzerland
How did we get so lucky to live in Switzerland? The Avers Valley is 6,000 feet high and only two hours away from home. Grandpa -- next time you visit, we will take you there. (The road is not that scary.)
Here is Tootsie in Mom's arms, but she's so little she's a little hard to see.
Tootsie's flight practice continues. There is so much to keep track of when you try to take flight. Now we're working on keeping our eyes open during flight practice.

We continue to believe it is possible for dogs to fly. Closer & closer, we say.

Flight Practice: A Little Help from the Wind
Some days, flight practice is more frustrating than other days. But even when things are frustrating, it's imPAWtant to keep practicing. Some people might say that dogs cannot fly, but that pigs can fly. Well, if a pig can fly, I think a dog can fly.
Mom and Dad say that they will help me keep practicing. I'm so lowdown that the wind doesn't get under my ears for a good lift, so I need Mom or Dad to pick me up. That way, my ears get a bit of a lift from the wind, and flight practice is possible.
Mom says she has lots of days with her writing where she doesn't feel like it is going well at all. Well, today's flight practice was one of those days.
If you're having a day when things aren't going so well, you might just need a friend to lift you up so you can feel the wind.

Love,
Tootsie
