Your walk today...

Straight after nearly 35 miles on the bike this Morning……the ‘task’ (**It’s NOT a chore) of walking my mutt still loomed. She is only 8 months old and we are slowly stretching out her miles. Even yesterday early - it was still warm’ish out. And she looked like she needed water when we arrived home……

So today we went out with doggy-doo bags, treats, a phone, a collapsable cup, some water, a bit of money……I’ve been less kitted out going on holiday 🙄 Part and parcel of stretching the miles / getting further from home I guess. Much like cycling !!!

Just over an hour; and 3.2 very pleasant miles covered 😊🐕

A very early Morning wander around the outskirts of a local Country Estate this Morning - with my partner in crime…..

Morning walk-sploring. New route today - up above Pleasurewood Hills Theme Park on the fields…..

Near 6 mile walk from Bollington, a hot day so we were out quite early.
White Nancy in the background, we got close but didn't make it to the top.

Our Morning walk. And just before my 9 month old puppy on a lead was ‘attacked’ by a Border Terrier off a lead. And whose owner couldn’t have given less of a f%#k. I’m not proud - but would happily give him my unprintable “advice” again in a heartbeat.

Macy the Cairn appears physically fine. Let’s hope it’s not changed her mentally; and that lovely outgoing, friendly, jiggly bummed welcome she gives everyone 😎

@Alex321 - Better ? 🤣🤣🤣

Just a short walk and prayer in the woods / meadow local to me. Such a lovely place and so quiet too.

I hope that she will be okay!

My sister has a Border Terrier. He was like your dog when he was a puppy but has been attacked 4 or 5 times by other dogs so he now gets very aggressive towards dogs that he doesn't know. As a result, he is now only allowed off the lead in closed dog walking fields.

Two of the attacks were very scary, by chunky Staffordshire Bull Terriers. The owner of the first had to kick his dog to get it off. The second attack was the most serious with the attacking dog having ours by the throat and shaking him about like a rag doll! The owner was struggling to get it off and in the end my sister grabbed the attackers jaws and pulled them apart. She got some nasty bites on her hands.

My other sister's dog was attacked twice by very large, aggressive dogs whose owners stood by freaking out while bystanders had to stop the attacks!

Yes, stupid dog owners who don't train and control their dogs properly are a pain - literally!

Thanks Colin. I think we're living and learning........

If the daylight is shortening by a couple of minutes a day - then it must have missed a few and caught right up today. Man it seemed like a darker / later even starting to get light this Morning. Like a big ‘jump’ from somewhere !

I’ve been starting in the dark at 4.30am for 10 (?) days now. I’m also now nearly finishing in murky light too at 5.15am’ish. Oh I hate living like a mole in Winter…….

I don’t mind It. I love early head torch walks or jogs. So peaceful just wandering along the trails in your own little bubble of light.

Nice morning stroll completed around the local area mainly saw a couple of dog walkers and people walking towards local industrial estate.

You are going for your walk before I start my previous day's sleep!

These days it is typically 04:00 to 05:00 when I finally drift off.

I don't normally wake up until about 10:00 unless I have things to do before then.
