On just one walk, the dogs can meet and see so many new things. I hate doing the same old boring walk each day, so try to liven things up by going on different routes or to completely new places. Our walk this morning saw us circling a newly built school, where there were huge numbers of people turning up for the celebrations of Eid. Just two minutes later, Nelly was having a swim in a man made lake whilst I was able to enjoy watching the bright blue Damselflies theough the reed beds,skimming over the surface of the water. Our walks home this week have been filled with collecting blackberries, early crop apples and wild mint. The dogs are all able to delicately pick blackberries without prickling themselves. We have had fun making jams and jellies with the goodies we have found on our walks over the years, and this year looks like being a good one for my store cupboard.
