In the mornings is when Biggie seems to want to bite. So when he gets into his bitey mode, I've started turning on the laser. It grabs his attention immediately. He chases it for a bit and then moves onto other things - like this morning, he's gone to his post on the terrace to start his morning shift.

Also we doing robot behavior therapy. I'm going to run Robby every morning. It will become part of our routine and he'll get fine about it. This morning, he watched but more in a hmmmm rather than an uh oh position. He hates having his nails trimmed but still steps up every morning now to get it done (we do one a day). So, he'll be fine with Robby every day.

I have decided that I do not have plantar fashionista. I think what I have is likely directly connected to flat feet, obesity and old age but I don't think it's plantar related. I skipped the treadmill today. And I walked very little yesterday. The minimum really. I'm going to try to do the same today. I figure that either more walking will help or less. I'm trying less first. I'll get back on the treadmill tomorrow and see.

So today, besides not walking, will be baseball, crochet, tv, the uge.

I read a question and answer column by a vet. Someone had almost the same situation and he answered that it was pent up energy and he should play with him for 15 minutes twice a day. I think the Laser is a great idea!
