And it was very cold. About 26-28 degrees and slightly breezy. Gunner and Sasha were very excited to go this morning. They missed their exercise yesterday (Wed) due to all the rain. It just poured buckets. So it was a circus getting them ready to go. But we did go.
Gunner was whining as we approached the park. "Come on Mom, hurry!!" Got parked did a short, very short sit, stay then released the Hounds.
Of they went like the speed demons they are. The ground was hard and you could hear them running. Thump,thoump, thoump. I was just walking some today not running much. Had an early morning with Little Miss Sasha. She decided that 3:30 am was the perfect time to up-chuck the dirt and stuff she had sneakily eaten outside. Once she had it up she was fine but we were awake.
Saw a few flocks of Geese flying overhead. Gunner was very interested in them and in the gunshots off in the distance. He was looking like "Birds..where!?!"
Also saw 2 very big and very beautiful blue herons or egrets. I don't really know the difference between them. The pups did a quick search of the water and we were off again. I know that water had to be cold but my water babies did not seem to care.
Did the loop and then a short piece behind the now stripped fields and back to the car. Tired and happy. This weekend I have a long run with Jenn and if it doesn't snow/rain oats one of the days I want to take the dogs to Naces Run to play and see how Sasha does on the grouse terrain. I think she is getting bolder as she grows up a bit.
