[Dailydrool] back in the saddle

[jacquelynn chazey]

OK, I made through another class with Pierre, and I still feel pretty good.  I think we all know the feeling as we get older, the worst case worry, plus I was really feeling like crap.  So glad to have turned a corner, not sure out of the woods, but grateful for everyday.  
It was so lovely today, that I started to leash walk the hounds again, starting with Jr.  He is the youngest, and used to be the most power walker, but has now turned into a sniffer, I will take my time.  OK with me, as I am out of shape, ready to go slow.  But we did distance, so that accounts for something.  Sis took a pair out, then I took  Pumpkin and Jean Paul,  then Jean Paul saw a guy on a bicycle.  He head tailed back home dragging Pump as she wanted more distance, but when JP was a pup a careless rider hit him with his bike, and JP never got over it.
Nikki is a power walker, and I got some great exercise today.
Then,  class for Jr.  It was smaller than usually which means those who attend have to work harder.  Also, this trainer does't watch the clock.  If a one hour lesson becomes two, so be it.  I am trying to prepare Jr. for a CGC, but he will start basic agility classes soon also.  I am not looking to put him in competition or risk his back, but he loves to play in this arena, and I just want him to have fun and get his edge off.
So much more to say, so little nerve, not about the basset community, but the home community.  (I called the cops for good reason, and I hope this doesn't rebound back to me, neighborhood watch.)
