We had such a lovely day three years ago that I thought I\u2019d tell you about that. It was when we were doing a sponsored walk to raise money to pay for Heidi\u2019s care. We are still raising money to look after Heidi of course as she\u2019s still in long term rescue, but she\u2019s doing well and has had a happy life so far, so it has been worth all the work and still is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Walking along the river<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Oh Shadow and I had such a lovely time yesterday. We did part of our walk for Heidi by parking at the Park and Ride on the outskirts of York and walking into York and back. I really like that walk as we get to see so many different dogs and people of course. Today we met the most beautiful St Bernard which was rather special. I had a chat with a cow in the field too. Mum hates it when I try being nose to nose with the cows but it\u2019s just one of those things I feel the need to do.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_5125.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13767\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_5125.jpg 450w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_5125-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_5125-326x245.jpg 326w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_5125-80x60.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Chasing geese<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Mind you, I said the same when I wanted to chase the geese as well. Mum wasn\u2019t thrilled about that idea as they were in the middle of the river and I was on a lead attached to her. The river was really high and coming over the bank in places, which meant I wanted to paddle and Mum didn\u2019t. Shadow is past all that, or at least that\u2019s what she says. I think she just doesn\u2019t like getting her paws wet. When we got to York we all had ice creams at Mum\u2019s favourite kiosk. It\u2019s her favourite because they sell really nice ice cream rather than the kiosk itself being exciting. Then we walked back again. Shadow was a bit tired, but I was still happily skipping by the time we got back to the car.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_5127.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13768\"\/><figcaption>Shadow walking nicely past the cows<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>A Friday Flashback to happier time when we could be out and about enjoying ourselves &#8211; and of course, eating ice cream.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17970,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[50,153,141,27,93],"class_list":["post-17975","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-day-to-day-life","tag-entlebucher","tag-heidi","tag-rescue","tag-shadow","tag-wilma","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17975","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17975"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17975\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17975"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17975"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17975"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
