lakota – Jul 3, 2006 12:00 AM

Lakota is doing extremely well, despite the troubles experienced by Lucas. We were initially concerned that Lakota and MacKenzie would show dominance over Lucas, but they have been very tolerant of his lethargic and sometimes unstable condition. After Lucas gets a pain pill, he does feel well enough to move around the pen. On Sunday, Lakota started a running bout and Lucas felt well enough to run a few feet with her. Lakota is still full of her undercoat, and daily staff brushings are resulting in piles of hair. For a 13 year old, she has the softest, most glossy hair of the pack.
