This past Saturday my family and I participated in the Humane Society Dog Lover's Walk! It was so much fun and we helped raise money for orphaned puppies. Thanks to all who gave so generously! My parents came down from Atlanta and brought their dogs, Bailey and Luke, to walk in the event as well. Bailey did especially well considering we left her muzzle at home. She normally doesn't take well to other dogs, but we had no problems Saturday morning! Good job, Bailey! Luke was a little overwhelmed with the whole situation. He never really barks but let out a few deep woofs due to nerves. Emma just wanted to go! She zig-zagged back and forth and really didn't like her gentle leader.
There were three lengths we could walk and we chose to do the shortest of the three. This was in part due to the fact that the gnats were awful and biting a lot. I wore shorts and really itchy legs are very uncomfortable!

Bailey got to ride in the middle with my mom and me... she likes to look out the windshield. |

This is the church where we all met to start the race. I thought it was just so beautiful! |
 |
Loads of people participated! Yay! That means lots of money was raised! |

I love this picture because it shows how fast the brown puppy's tail is wagging. |

The Landings, where the walk was held, is so beautiful! |
 |
Happy dogs! |
 |
Oh Lord. This dog had gotten a new dress and her nails done for the walk. |
 |
Savannah is so pretty! And the weather was perfect! |

My mom and Luke and Emma and me. |
After the walk finished we stopped by the agility course to try and teach Emma some new tricks! We got some information about a place here in the city where Emma can learn to do agility courses. She is very smart and quick so I think she could do really well at them. Teaching her to do this would also give us an activity to do, which gets me excited since much of my days are filled with nothing to do.

Good girl, Emma! |
 |
Emma didn't like the seesaw. Apparently it is the hardest to learn because it scares the dogs. |
 |
This viszla new how to do it! |
We had a great walk and rest of the weekend. New post to come soon about my parent's visit!
