[shadow mum]

I used to practice lifting Shadow, but am not allowed to anymore due to a spinal problem. I have no doubt however, that in an emergency, I could lift and carry him. I may not be moving myself for a few days following, but he'd get the care he needed. My DH still lifts Shadow just for fun. Shadow knows that once he's up, he's to stay still. DH actually carried him acrros a railway trestle bridge one day when we were out hiking. Good training for both of them.
