Raijen 10 Months
It has been a long time since the last update. Raijen is now 10 months old and weighs 21 pounds and still growing. We have built him a play area in our backyard, so that he can get out and into the sun and enjoy the wildlife in our area. He seems to enjoy it. We have put in a large tree trunk so he can climb and be up in the air some. He also has a pool, that at this time is filled with sand. In the summer we will put water in it. We have also included a cedar tree that he likes to play hide and seek in. We are going to add more landings so that he can jump from landing to landing. We do not leave him out there overnight. This is just a play area.
Raijen still goes for walks. We have taken him into the woods behind our residence and he loves it. All the new smells and sights. He saw his first bunny rabbit. Now he is always looking for that bunny rabbit. No I did not let him give chase to the rabbit.

These next few pictures were taken on an excursion to a state park. Raijen had to walk on a leash for about a 1/4 mile then we descended some stone stairs to the beach area. Raijen actually went swimming in the water, but of course I did not get that Kodak moment. But he did have a good time on the beach. He especially liked it when people made sand holes for him.
