merida tried to break my hip yesterday

Jun 24, 2020

Merida is SO much better than before boot camp. She walks beside me while on a leash… MOST of the time! We took a walk yesterday — more a training refresher than exercise. She did great, except when she didn’t.

At the end of the driveway and almost home, she decided to take a sharp turn right in front of me. One leg up to take a step, my feet suddenly had no place to go! It wasn’t an awful spill, but I did go down on one knee with the final stopping point of my hip on the concrete. My knee is skinned and my hip bruised and sore this morning, but I didn’t squash my dog.

If she didn’t have the cutest face ever, I’d probably choke her in her sleep.

That's the cutest face ever.

Dharma probably wishes I would.
