Habit

One of the things that surprised me about dog ownership is how they develop habits. She runs down the same part of the garden every time. Walks around the park and only chases the ball in certain places. Goes into the river at the same place. And this: stands next to the daffodils and refuses to move until I throw the ball across them, and then she bounds through them like a baby gazelle. You can just see her ears flying in this photo.
Crazy hound.
