A bad day

After the morning dog walk I headed off to travel Brie to a cross country session in town. All on schedule... Until my car broke down. On one of the biggest hills in Orkney. Not great with a trailer and horse on the back. Thankfully I heard not a peep from Brie whilst Gorgeous came to the rescue. We arrived a little late but hadn't missed much of our session. Some warm up work around some of the groups of jumps and then starting off with, I think, the smallest jump I've ever jumped. A few strides after she landed, I realised she'd gone lame. Gutted. She's lame on front right and back left. We made our sorry way back to Stromness (without breaking down, this time) and returned her to Billy for cuddles. I've bandaged all 4 legs to offer a bit of support and will see how she is tomorrow... But I suspect it'll be field rest for a little while.

Dogs walked at Wasdale where the level of the Loch is really low but Talisker still managed to swim a bit.

Now just chilling at home.
