morning run:
Otto
Mega
Lex
Zoot
Petey
Amber
Steve McQueen
Hazel
(8)

Northern loop: ~7k (might be 8k, not sure). We left late but it's the tribe so I don't mind tiring them out in the heat; Otto's cardio isn't exactly back yet but he's game and his leg seems good. This was also Hazel's first run post-surgery but she's obviously feeling just fine. I took us to the swimming hole but then cut south, crossed the bag end land bridge and took the northern tip of the palapa road to the Au Soleil Couchant road, then looped back to the parallel road and home via the cut-over. The swimming hole only has a little bit of water left in it but they didn't care. I had Amber on the hook out of the gate but I let her off east of the intersection and she was fine; she and Hazel were both on the leash by the time we got to the cut-over and I left them that way until we got home. Mega and Hazel both like to bark at people a little too much; nothing major but something to be aware of. It only happened once for a couple of seconds. Otherwise a nice run.
