Stricken Sounds

They say it’s a mile around and I did four loops, so that took care of my daily walk and then some. My sister just rescued two older dogs (6 and 7) from a shelter. They love each other. They’d been cooped up for a while and are in need of exercise. The female especially (7 years old) is a little pudgy. On Sunday, we took them to the park to walk them on their new leashes and collars. They charged out of the car like wild animals, but about 3/4 of the way around the front part of the park, both of them were panting and the female decided to lie down and rest. It started to rain so I took them to a shelter and waited while my sister ran to get the car. It was really coming down by the time we ran across the grass to scramble into the car. When I got home, my shoes and pants looked like I’d been rolling around on the ground. It was a great birthday weekend.
