Years ago I used to hike my dogs a lot-several times a week. Over time I have gotten out of the habit of hiking and letting them free run. Christmas Day I decided to change this, I contacted a few friends and off we went hiking. We had a pack of 6 greyhounds, one golden retriever and 3 people.
It was a lovely walk until we met up with some fresh cow manure. Darby investigated it first-rolled and then proceeded to shake, flinging it everywhere.
Lisa had a great attitude about it saying all she had to do was walk across the road to go home and hose him off, Terry and I were secretly happy it wasn't our dogs. I looked over in horror and realized Echo was doing the same thing. It didn't show as well on her since she is a dark brindle. But she was covered as thoughly....and I did have to put her in the car to take her home! It smelled bad.
Maybe that is why I stopped hiking them????
The rest of the walk was lovely and the dogs went home and slept the rest of the day. A good dog is a tired dog. I will have to add hiking back into our routine.

Ohhhhhh my!!! Dogs -- WHAT are they thinking! Those photos are priceless.
But so true, there's nothing like a good off leash hike with the dogs. Definitely one of my favourite things to do.
Great outing,photos,and the commentary is priceless.
Ha ha ha! Oh, that sounds like a miserable ride home, but I'm still glad you got out and had a great time with them!
