After driving lessons, a break from left hand drive during the holidays in the states, and a renewed motivation to get over my fears of manual transmissions, chaotic roads, and Nairobi traffic in 2014 - I have started driving to the forest more regularly for running and hiking with Pickle. It turns out that this has not only been a good thing, but necessary since Pickle, as we found out at the vet, has put on a whopping 10 pounds since coming to Nairobi and now he is on the dog version of Biggest Loser: Kenyan Style.
When we were in the states over Christmas and New Year's, our landlords were kind enough to help in watching Pickle. Sadly, they fell victim to the sweet and pathetic lab eyes and began feeding him a daily chapati (fried dough) because 'he looked hungry'. As you can imagine, this addition to his diet was not the healthiest and most certainly was a contributing factor to his new physique.
Below is a picture story of Pickle's adventures:
