Hooray for Spring!

Jerry, Emme and Tom after a long walk

We had to get out in the beautiful weather we had today- 60+ degrees. We headed out and walked a lap around the local state park. Not sure how far it actually is but it was a lot especially with two Border Collies and a stroller. Tom and Jerry are very, very well behaved or I would never try this stunt alone. We have been out a number of times and yes paws do sometimes get run over but that is because they don't focus on what they are doing. Tom only lost his self control two or three times when we first started and he saw other dogs. He started bobbing and weaving back and forth hence the paws were runneth over. He walks on the left of the stroller and Jerry to the right eliminating any need for either of them to pull ahead of the other and race. I put Emme in the stroller part without the car seat and she seemed to enjoy the view for about 2 seconds and the fresh air put her to sleep. We saw our friend Priscilla and doggies Kloie and Flynn and hopefully next week we can make it back to walk with them. I have to beat Jeanine in the weight loss competition we have going!
