After lots of rainy weekends and misery we had a lovely weekend so made the most of it with some walks over the wedge. On Saturday we had a great walk with the usual collie crew and I realised I can finally trust Molly an awful lot more now and relax when we are out for our walks without worrying about whether she is going to take off chasing things.
On Sunday we introduced Marianne and her dogs to the joys of the wedge, they enjoyed ball chasing, running through the grass and paddling in the streams and a good time was had by all!! Foster dog Jake the ridgeback came too and Molly is not totally comfortable with him so was not quite as relaxed as the day before - but overall it was a lovely weekend with some very good company both canine and human.

What well trained dogs!!! Sall, Cash, Sydney, Molly and Jake.

After a break we took the dogs for another quick mooch round Coundon Park. Molly led the gang of dogs into the woods and all the rest came out minus Moll. After a few calls we investigated and found she had got the wrong side of the pond, tried to cross over and ended up stranded on a island in the middle. She was trying to get back to us but the water was too deep for her to wade and she was not brave enough to swim. After a bit of encouraging I realised she was not going to come over so had to make my way over to the other side of the pond so she could come back the way she had gone over onto the island. She was a very relieved swamp monster when I called her back and she found the easy route.
