Walking with Zinnia

 Well folks, things are getting better all the time. I decided that i would try to walk with my best behaved dog Zinnia, and it was great! I know i am not ready to take the whole crew with me(and may never want to do that for other reasons anyway) I have a few pups that think they are sled dogs and pull really hard on the leashes. I don't trust my newly found balance enough for that test yet.
But Zin is a great companion, and she thoroughly enjoys getting out in nature and working off her excess energy.
I asked her to sit so i could take a few pictures of her in the woods. She is a dog who spends her days in constant motion
 
but she got very impatient with me
She'd MUCH rather be moving.

Hi Mary Ellen! I haven't been to your blog before, and really enjoyed your pictures. You are an inspiration to me, a person who deals with her own balance issues. Zinnia is beautiful and so are you!

I'm glad you're feeling better all the time, Mare. Your dog is so cute!
All the best from the west coast...

Hi Lynne! Zinnia is a great companion. i don't have to worry about her knocking me down as she is very well behaved and seems to understand i am still a bit wobbly. The others are a bit jealous i think....
