Went along to Hunsbury Hill Park this morning with Clare and 2 of her regulars, William and Bonnie. On the way to the spot where they would be let off the lead Clare was very firm with them walking to heel, they only 'forgot' a couple of times as they were obviously very excited! I was keeping a close eye to get any tips on how to deal with Ruby (our Boxer puppy) on the lead.
Once we were in the field, by the old train track, Clare brought out a lovely clean, and round, ball. I know a ball is usually round, just wanted to point it out so that I could then say by the time they had finished it was definitely not, it was squashed and very muddy - if it could talk I'm sure it would have said exhausted too!

As you can see from the photo they sat very nicely inbetween throws, rest assure though once the ball flew, so did they!
I enjoyed the walk, cold on the hands but the sky was blue, the sun was out, the air felt fresh and it was a thrill to watch these guys sprinting after their ball. After half an hour though I carried on home and Clare carried on to another park and another dog.
