After the dental work, I didn't walk the dogs. They seemed to understand and didn't even whine for once. They seemed content to cuddle with me and watch me try to eat.
Yesterday we did go. It started as a typical walk. I had to wear my cargo pants so I have a pocket for, well, you know, just in case. I take my cell phone for ID - just in case. I take my pedometer so I know how far we went. I take two poopie bags and my key to the house.
No neighbor dogs attacked us. No kids came up behind us on bikes and almost made me need the little bags for myself. It was a nice walk, until we started on the last section of the main road. Molly found something interesting and I had to drag her off, and she wasn't happy. Me either. It hurts my shoulder to drag her.
We pass the same way on the way back, and she again went for exactly the same spot. We walk on the sidewalk on a main road, and there is a wood fence with foliage. Baby found the same spot very exciting.
Suddenly a very small baby bunny spun out of there and hopped to another area. It scared the crap out of me, but the dogs weren't fazed. I am thinking there was a whole nest in there. I had to drag two dogs home, with their nails scraping across the cement.
They didn't touch the bunnies. There is a Momma Bunny buying stock in dog leashes and fences today. She can pay my physical therapist, too.

OH, How I understand. Luke, The Wonder Dog has found some baby bunnies in what used to be my flower bed in the front. Luke and the bunny survived, but the flowers, not so lucky. I was just glad I wasn't hanging on his leash when we went outside. Anne
At least it was a bunny and not a skunk. Sorry about your shoulder, hope it gets to feeling better, Suzy!
Best Wishes,

Poor bunny! Poor you! Nice to hear you are doing better...JAE
God bless you for bringing "poopie bags" along on your doggie walks! Wanna come over here and try to convince my neighbors to do the same??
(lol) Jon
I am glad that you felt up to walking. I sure am glad that the bunnies are still safe and that you didn't need to poopy bags for yourself!
hugs,
Kathi
