And Then There Were Two
Yes friends, that's right. We now have 2 dogs. It's with great pleasure I introduce our newest addition, Zephyr.
She's a 3 year old mutt that was brought into Worcester Animal Rescue League as a stray. The listed her as a Shepherd/rotty mix but looking at her appearance and behavior I'm inclined to think she's more likel Lab/Boxer. She's a very happy, energetic mooshball of a dog, but she could use some training. Nothing major, just could stand a few weeks in basic obedience class. We'll be signing her up soon. :)
Anyway, this morning was our first time out in the morning as the new pack. Beyla, myself and Zephyr. She wasn't overly thrilled with her new Gentle Leader at first but like Beyla soon forgot about it. She's like her sister and will pull at the end of the leash without it but walks like an angel with it on. So Gentle Leader it is!
Beyla and I have been comeplete slackers lately about our morning walks. Too many late night getting ready for Halloween and thus too many late mornings getting up. Not to mention Beyla is getting lazier in the morning by the day! Yup, she's my dog alright. LOL! Nonetheless we have gotten out from time to time, just not daily as we normally do.
A few observations this morning. Most importantly, it's harder to drink a cup of coffee when both hands are on leashes. O_o also, in the past week it's like all the leaves suddenly decided to jump off the trees. We only had a few down a week ago and now the road has leafbanks along the side from cars passing and blowing them off to the sides. Yup, it's fall for sure now. Leaves are down, crisp cool mornings. I'm going to need to start wearing a jacket soon. It won't be long before I've got to don the gloves and tromping boots. I wonder how Zephyr feels about snow. Well, I'm sure Beyla will get her into it if she's not yet.
I guess I should change the blog title now huh? :D
