Adventures in Dog Walking.

Basically, I looked like a crazy person this morning when I tried to take my dogs on a walk.
Seriously.

Here's the story:
I really wanted to take a walk this morning. And it's been my goal for a little while now to start taking my dogs on a walk a few times a week. So, I thought that we should take a little walk.
So I put on their leashes, and we walked out the front door to begin our adventure in our neighborhood.
*Here's a little bit of background info before I continue.
My dogs may be big, but they are little babies. They are scared of everything in the outside world. I really should have socialized them better when they were puppies, but I didn't.*
So as we were walking down one of the streets a little while away from the house, two little white poodles started chasing us down.
Jake and Homer started freaking out.
And little did I know that I didn't put their choke chains on correctly.
Homer escaped first, then Jake followed suit.
Oh. My. Word.
Talk about chaos.
These two little poodles were freaking my dogs out.
Jake and Homer were dancing awfully close to a busy street.
So naturally,
I was yelling at J&H to sit and stay.
Did they listen?
No.
So I chased them down. And after a little bit of struggle, I got their choke chains on correctly.
And I shooed away the little poodles.
My gracious.
It was nuts.
So we continued our walk.
And Jake decided to be Houdini and escape from his choke chain again.
I just don't know how that dog does it.
So I caught up with him again, and got it back on.
Thankfully, we were able to walk all the way back home without another incident.
I'm telling you, it was so crazy.
But, it was such a joy getting to go on a walk with them again.

Blessings.
