Blackwood.
Researched a walk I used to use years ago and now remember why I stopped using it. Ok for spaniels but would be no good for pointers. Tam needed the run but he didn’t really need a run in the conditions today which would have been bright sun had we not been below the canopy. Thankfully there were several pools of water for him to wallow/swim in as it was very humid. Make you think of thunder. The one positive note was that I found in several clearings the most amazing clumps of brambles and well in flower so if we get a kilo or two later on we mau have some of Granny O’Neile’s World Famous Blackberry Ice Cream.
Lucky’s toe still looks swollen although he isn’t favouring it and the launcher’s transmitter needs a new battery so neither of the pups will get anything other than a walk for Coco, and that only if the rain holds off.
