Wiggle - Day 1,794

Continuing the fun of our walk on Sunday, here's the rest of the photo's.

Wiggle seemed to remember where the river was and after snacking on sheep-poopsnacks, he made his way to the water:


Sofy was also keen to get her paws wet:


Wiggle carried his ball as he explored the river bank:


Waiting for the ball:


Wiggle kept his eye on the ball while Sofy was too busy watching me!


Sun and water:


Having fun, splashing around:




Once Wiggle had the ball back, he kept hold of it:


Back on dry land, walking through the buttercups:


Sofy was running around, searching out more sheep-poopsnacks:


Every walk along the old railway track requires a photo at Wiggle's halt:


Back in the car, two soggy dogs!

Wiggle - Day 1,792

After having such a lovely walk last weekend along the old railway track, we went back there this afternoon.

Wiggle didn't hang around, happy to be off-lead for the first time in a week:


We saw rabbits in the field:


Even bouncing bunnies!


Wiggle stopped to sniff, briefly letting go of his tennis ball: 


Sofy, always happy to jump up on a bench:


We went into the field so Wiggle went through the dog-flap in the stile:


Sofy was less keen on the dog-flap, so decided to see what other options were available:


Unable to climb over the gate, Sofy tried going through or under, but that wasn't going to work:


One thing for it!


So pleased with herself, Sofy jumped back to me:


The prize for all that effort - a huge field with sheep-poop snacks!


Wiggle was happy, running with his ball:


Wiggle and Sofy, sitting in the sunshine:


Happy boy:

Wiggle - Day 1,788

When we were at Caen Hill Locks at the weekend we saw a cute little swan family:


But while we were watching them, we saw one little cygnet fall down the slope and into the canal!  The baby swan swam around, away from its family:


Realising one baby was missing, one parent went back down the slope:



Parent and baby:


Leading the way:


One giant leap!


That's probably a really, really big slope when you're a little cygnet:


Nearly there....


Reunited, all back together again.


We do like a happy ending!

Wiggle - Day 1,786

Tweet-Up with Lucyyellowlab, part 2

After our walk at Caen Hill Locks, we went over to show Lucy and her humans Black Dog Halt and Wiggle very kindly shared 'his' halt for a group photo with Stuart:


Lucy and Val:


Wiggle lead the way as we walked along in the rain:


After a week of on-lead walks, Wiggle was very pleased to be offlead for a little while:


Sofy jumped up at the bridge to get a better look at the sheeps in the field:


One of the little lambies, looking much more grown up since we last saw them:


Lucy managed to get mucky (the sign of a good walk, apparently!):


Sofy was busy watching the sheeps:


Soggy Wiggle:


Cute little sheepy family:


For the first time, Wiggle had decided to wander into the muddy bog along the track and got himself mucky but we took a detour across the field and found the river:


Sofy enjoyed splashing around:


Wiggle was getting cleaner:


Fun in the water:


Watching Wiggle and Sofy enjoy the river, now that we know how to get to it, we'll definitely be taking that detour across the field again:


Wet, but a whole lot cleaner!
