In my previous post I mentioned we've had some rain. The other night the 4 of us really got caught out in a bad storm. The time for the last walk of the day arrived coincidentally a storm was just beginning as we headed outside. It didn't seem that bad when we first walked out. Okay it was mildly bad. But we still decided to trudge along.
I was prepared for the rain and Brad thought he was prepared too as he was proudly wearing his new Cowboys jacket. We got to nearly the halfway point of the walk when we looked at each other and decided the rain is getting worse, lets get back inside. As we decided to head back home. Brad reveals his new Cowboys jacket that appeared to be waterproof....hmmm.....is not waterproof! He was getting drenched. As we turned to head for home the rain started pelting us. I mean "pelting" us! The rain was coming down at a slight angle which meant we were all getting pelted right in the face. Soon after Simon clued into the fact we were heading back home he took off. I mean he blasted off! I always walk Simon and Cody is always walked by Brad. It was suddenly like I had a sled dog on the leash. He was running so fast I couldn't believe it! He ran far too. He blasted off while outside then blasted through the hallways until we arrived at our front door. He decided he'd had enough of that pelting rain hitting his face and ears....he was done and ready to get home.
He's always been a fast runner, which I already knew. The part that's a bit surprising was the way it all played out. He recognized we were headed home and without any encouragement to run he was in full sprint. His willingness to run the distance we ended up running was surprising too. The lil' ol' dude can still hang with the pups! ;)
