walking the “ruffer”
is often a test of wills
“ruffer” is tougher  🦊❤️

When I walk Ruffer he always carries his tennis ball. He has been playing a game of dropping his ball, sitting beside it and when I walk toward him and get close, he will quickly and adeptly pick up the ball and continue to walk. Last evening as a thunder storm approached I decided to stand my ground and wait him out. Well after 10 minutes I looked at the sky filling with black clouds. Then I looked at Ruffer’s eyes watching me watching the clouds… I walked toward him… he picked up the ball… he walked merrily along… I guess Ruffer doesn’t worry about impending thunderstorms! Lol 🦊❤️
