Rehab

Nuki's in-house physical therapist, Kalu has really been pushing her hard. Kalu, after a comprehensive assessment that involved extensive olfactory examination of Pinuki's nasal region, decided it is time for Nuki to start rehab. Exercises have included "catch me and remove the bully stick from my mouth;" forced tug of war (Kalu shoves football in Nuki's mouth until Nuki concedes to the exercise); step over and around the obstacles (stuffed animals, toys, etc) placed throughout the condo; and "help me bark because I think we should." Nuki begins each exercise reluctantly, but with a little, okay, a lot of prodding by her determined therapist, she ultimately acquiesces.
