morning run:
Otto
Blue
Rita
Truman
Reggie
Lily
Luna
Hazel
(8)

Northern charcos: ~8k. We took the slightly shorter route on the way home via the swimming hole; I made the mistake of letting Hazel off the leash near there and she rewarded me by diving into the brush and fishing for bush-plums. Disgusting. She was on the leash from there until we got home and I gave her a rather stern talking to. Other than that everyone was really good and Hazel was also generally good; no barking at people or vehicles and she only turned her ears off that once. Otto was lagging a bit for half the run; he might have a limp or he might've just been gassed from the humidity so we'll have to see. He should probably just go on walks for a while.

morning walk:
Zasu
Miles
Henry
Lucy
Tito
Osita*
Frijolita
Monkey
(8)

Roni took this group out for a walk in the monte. I thought Osita was perhaps over her bizarre behavioral pattern of ditching her human and running home if any other dog gets disciplined on a walk or run but I Was wrong; Roni spoke sternly to them to stop rolling on a bag full of death that someone dumped near the shrimpery and Osita turned tail and ran home. We're just going to have to keep working with her on that. Roni knew what had happened and just carried on with everyone else, who had a great time.
