Today I took my dog for a walk with my little sister. I had already walked about half a mile (1/4 uphill) with my best friend's mom, but I wasn't tired yet and figured why not?
The walk is really long. I don't know the distance for sure. But we would have been gone for about an hour because it's mostly uphill, then it loops down and around gradually until you are on a side street, which takes you down the first huge hill you walked up, and then we walk across town back home. It's quite the workout.
Well, we got a little surprise today. At the very top of the hill, our highest point before heading back toward the house, we ran into a little black pug. The little kids came out of the house to get him and it was no big deal. They got him back into the yard and everything was fine.
Or so I thought. We got to the BOTTOM of the hill after the house. It loops down and around. Very steep and turn-y. From behind me, I hear little voices screaming. What do I see but a little pug running after us? And the two little itty bitty kids running barefoot after him.
My dog is a golden retriever and the biggest wuss around. She started to freak out, yanking me around. The little kids tried to get ahold of their dog, but they were too small.
You know what I did? I picked up their pug under one arm, took my dog's leash in my other hand, and we trekked back UP the windy steep hill of death. I was literally carrying a 20-30 lb pug under my left arm with my golden retriever yanking my right, and went back up the dreaded hill I had just descended from.
Needless to say, there was still about another 20 minute walk back down the hill and across town to home after that, so we were gone for a bit of extra time.
Surprisingly, even though I'm quite tired, I feel great. I helped out those little kids, and got a little extra exercise in. :) I would do it all again if I had to.
Hope everyone had a great day!
