morning run:
Alice
Lucy
Ginger
Ernie
Rufus
Frankie
Truman
(7)

It was Blue's turn but Frankie also needed to go; Blue should go next. Truman, Ernie and Frankie were enthusiastically trying to engage the cows at the cow pasture to begin with, but they broke off and followed me and everyone was good thereafter. We ran into a couple vehicles on the way, including one dude on a moto who drove alongside us for about 50m and wanted to know about our little deal, and then drove off ahead of us; I had Ernie on the leash (because I heard him coming up behind us) but I don't think it was necessary. A year ago he'd have jumped Mr. Moto for sure.
GRADE: A-

evening walk/sk duty:
Zasu
Miles
Henry
Greta
Elewah
(5)

Elewah counts on this one, although she came home later. Greta has a terrible limp now, but I figured she needed some fun and we were already out, so we went slow and waited for her a lot. Elewah barked at the cows, but for some reason it seemed really funny: me with that rag-tag collection of little and/or fat dogs, and tiny little Elewah decides to harass the cows. They were not impressed. Amazingly, Miles kept up and had a good time. Greta insisted on coming home Ye Olde Way, even though the rest of us came back up the North Road trail, for reasons we will never know.
GRADE: C+
