Early Morning Escape

Before most people were even out of bed this morning, I grabbed all 4 dogs and headed to the lake. We had a guy coming over to do a little concrete repair work in our backyard for us (replacing some pool drains) and we needed to keep the pups out of the way for a while.

What better way than to escape for a long, early morning walk!

We got to the lake at about 6:45am.
We only walked 3 miles because sometimes Jill has a tough time going further. Here we are at the turn around point for the day.
Once they've settled into a groove it's easy to walk them with just one finger. People see us walking and get a kick out of how well they walk together.
They were pooped and ready for the ride home!
By the time we got home the messy part of the work was nearly done, and the pups were ready for a nap, so it worked out well.
Since then, Kona's had a bath, and we are just about ready to head out to the VA for our regular Friday visit. We didn't go on Monday this week because of the long weekend. We are ready to go and see all of our favorite patients and make them smile! Have a great weekend!

I'm totally envious that you can walk 4 BIG DOGS with a finger. My little brats pull me thru the neighborhood - who's controlling who here??

Any word on Hubby's interview??? Our fingers are crossed for you!

Such pretty dogs! You've got 4 beautys! And thats for sure. Glad to see you've got them all trained to be able to walk them as you do! :-)

If people only knew how little training but how much love was put into the dogs. Again, always with the smiles.
