Red being very clear on her feelings about the Cone of Shame.

The Cone of Shame

We were on our long morning walk. We’d been to the beach and back, and just a block from home. Red had gotten her energy levels down to a manageable place. Then a dog behind a fence lunged and snarled…what’s a girl to do? She snarled, then lunged back.

She whacked her paw into the fence and cut it somehow. Half a dozen stitches (actually staples, like you’d stick in papers) across the top of her paw. Hence, the Cone of Shame.

12 days in this thing, which is called – I kid you not – an Elizabethan Collar.

It comes off tomorrow.
