oh, how i am glad there was no-one about

big empty field.

two dogs.

me.

dogs off the lead as usual for this part of the walk. they are hitting their 'teens' so recall not fantastic, so only go off lead in this pretty enclosed field and if no-one else about.

Anyway, they run ahead as usual. I can guess they caught the scent of a rabbit, and they steam ahead. I jog to catch up with them. But trip up in a very large rabbit hole. Its so large that both feet were in vthe hole at the same time. i land face down in the mud. jeans covered in mud. oh how glam am i.

My dogs def arent Lassie, and would fail at search and rescue. I swear thy were laughing as i went down, and they deciding to carry on looking for rabbits.

little scamps!

Oh Misdee the joys of dog ownership!

I had an agility lesson and all was going wellish! when the instructor decided to video me to show my what I was doing wrong yep I fell flat on my face and the bugger carried on filming and has shown the dvd at every Christmas party for the last few years.

Not quite so funny but a bit mad. I forgot to take bags with me today so when my dog did a lovely big pooh in the middle of the playing field i went searching for a discarded carrier bag in the hedge. Needless to say the delight at finding one was short lived 'cos I couldn't find the mess! Cue me wandering up and down the field looking for it . And my dog looking at me as if to say wtf .
Offending article was eventually found and discarded with in the appropriate manner

Oh yes the wandering up and down obsessively scanning the ground for a poo you know is there somewhere, have been known to do this with a torch in the dark (the trick is not to find it by stepping in it). This would have seemed an utterly crazy thing to be doing before I had a dog
