Today we took Quiz on his first five mile walkies. It poured and we got drenched. In fact, I got so wet that when we got back to the rangers' building at the start of the trail,I went into the public toilets and stood in front of the hand drier for fifteen minutes. But neither of the dogs cared about the weather in the slightest. They love the rain and they love the mud even more.
Quiz is getting more confident about meeting other dogs and less likely to jump up every human he comes across. He's even coming back when he's called (most of the time). However, he was so worn out by the walk that when we got home he curled up in his bed and went straight to sleep and wouldn't even get up to eat his dinner.

Great photos as usual. Quiz is learning and growing quickly. I am certain he has a high IQ and will herd with the best of them. He is a beautiful dog. Of course, so is Delphi.
Gorgeous photographs.
And I want to cuddle that Quiz so much! 🙂
