I took Bobby & Alfie on a lovely
long walk yesterday, through the fields and tracks between Horton and
Ravenstone in Northamptonshire. It was really relaxing actually, and the 3 of
us thoroughly enjoyed it.
It’s funny because, at home, or in
the shop, or any enclosed space, Alf & Bob constantly play fight like,
well, dog and dog. As soon as they are in the great outdoors, they barely acknowledge
each other and prefer to engross themselves in their own missions. Bobby just
likes to find things for you to throw for him, and searches continuously for
the next object. Alfie is intent on sniffing, then spraying any slightly
upright object he sees. This normally means Bobby is way out in front, Alfie is
hanging well back (sniffing something), and I am in the middle!
We got to see a few combine
harvesters doing their thing, which was a very picturesque Autumnal sight.
The boys, of course, did manage to
find the smelliest, dirtiest, blackest pond in the world, and gleefully swim in
it before I could catch them up! All part of the fun I suppose, just hope they
didn’t drink any!
I think Autumn is my favourite time of
year to walk the dogs, and I’m not looking forward to the dark nights ahead. Oh
well, at least I’ll get to wear my nice wellies again J
