Mad dogs and Englishmen


We were due to pick up Max today from the kennels but an early morning phone call had us shooting over to St Mamert. Olivier sounded a bit worried. Max, in trying to escape over the fence from his dog pound, had hurt his paw and might need a vet. When we got him home, apart from losing a little blood, his paw seemed fine. But later in the afternoon he started to limp and lose more blood. To the vets it was and they checked him over. They had to knock him out to deal with the 2 wounds and, several stitches later, we got him back home to rest. We're glad we went because both wounds were quite deep and without intervention would have taken quite some time to heal. Bless.

It's the Journee Estivale today in the village, with a grande buffet d'ete and dancing. More about that later.
