Lola loves cows

On our hike this past Wednesday we encountered lots of livestock. My dogs and their best friend Barley (a beagle) decided it is their responsibility to protect us from these weird looking creatures. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera... but if you can just imagine a trail that is so muddy your feet sink into the ground and that gross sucking sound as you try to pull your boots out, that was our wonderful walk....and to be honest, I'm not sure if it was just mud. Gross. Not to mention falling into some bramble-I've got battle scars. But anyway, the best part was while we're walking along we hear some hooves start pounding the ground and see 3 cows bolting across their field and a teeny tiny Lola chasing them. It was awesome.

Greg had off work yesterday, so we went hiking on a different route. And even in the car Lola could sense there were cows, she watched out the window for the entire hour checking to see if there were any cows. It was a beautiful hike, we were walking in a gorge and the rock overhangs were dripping water, there were waterfalls, and we even saw some goats running along the mountain side. We had to leash Lola when we were close to some fields that were filled with cows and their adorable babies, but that didn't stop her from dreaming about chasing them, it was awesome.
isn't she adorable?
