Needed to attack each dog he encountered.

They did love the beach, though shortly after those pics were taken, Peggy disappeared over the horizon, G just about caught up with her and was fairly furious with her, so A took her off on the lead for some time out, only Sidney then followed, got tangled up in her lead and attacked her, hanging onto her jowls and refusing to be separated from them, so we all headed back in some disgrace! It was still a good day out.<br /><br />Z - damn, why didn't I think of that?!<br /><br />RR - I know, but what's an extra foot between friends?!<br /><br />Chloƫ - Yup!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-18183393321124925622015-02-16T11:16:00.936+01:002015-02-16T11:16:00.936+01:00Lovely :DLovely :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-1603531995456268682015-02-16T08:17:12.855+01:002015-02-16T08:17:12.855+01:00Eleventh line - whoops!Eleventh line - whoops!Roderick Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16828395545197001637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-65472873207636202652015-02-16T05:17:09.734+01:002015-02-16T05:17:09.734+01:00Doggerel?Doggerel?Zhoenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03515663141425057088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-87717915777159988202015-02-16T01:54:55.563+01:002015-02-16T01:54:55.563+01:00Glorious post Lucy.

Also, though we deeply admire them for taking on multiple dogs, we decided that even when we do take on a dog again, it will likely be just one, not a pack.<br /><br />Anyway, I've changed the title to be less ambiguous!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-23797009104077761262015-02-15T19:32:16.599+01:002015-02-15T19:32:16.599+01:00I thought the same as Maria-Leena, and rather reli...I thought the same as Maria-Leena, and rather relieved it was a visit - sounds like a delightful one at that.
