The start of the week i have been walking my grans dogs as well, so I've been walking two lots of dogs. This morning my mum very kindly offered to come this morning so we could walk them all together and also meant we could go alot further. My dogs have been left on there own alot more than usual this week although they don't seem to care probably glad to have some piece and quiet without me nattering on! So i thought as a treat we'd take them for along walk. We ventured out into the wind and rain and were soaked in about 5 minutes but he ho the dogs didn't mind, they seem to do more running in the rain. Due to the rain the stream was running very fast and was quite high, put it this way the dogs would have had to swim once in. They normally have a little paddle in the shallow areas but it was to high today. Usually i have to watch Jess as she tends to jump over and on to the other side and then jump back, but today it was Gemma. She did it in exactly the same place as Jess got stuck (although we didn't realise Jess was stuck and had to walk back for her) Bad parent that i am. Gemma took a huge leap over the stream and only jut made it and then decided she didn't want to be on that side and had no run up and just leapt back. She didn't make it, her front paws where on the bank and she was desperately trying to jump out so her mummy had to rescue her. This is one reason why dogs should always wear collars they come in very handy when pulling dogs out of water, a lesson to everyone! To be fair it wasn't that deep but i saved her, bless what a moose hopefully shes learnt her lesson!
