My traumatic walk
Posted On: 25/07/2008 20:08:05
I was looking forward to my walk tonight to help me unwind after a hard long week at work. I was walking on merrily day dreaming and thinking about what a great day i had today and Lilia was trotting along side happily. All of a sudden she took off even Dwyane Chambers wouldnt have caught her. I could see the object of her desire - a six foot deep pool of pig poo. I screamed, jumped done anything i could to get her attention but she wasnt having it. I ran as fast as my flat feet would take me towards her thinking at least theres a fence and gate around it she should be ok just as she disappeared under the gate. By this time i was sobbing hysterically and screaming at the top of my voice. I got to the gate and there she was just inside on the edge of this pool muching pig poo. Now all i had to do was be calm and gently grab her harness but i missed and she took off towards the centre by this point i was beside my self and screaming at her. I think i frightened her she turned round and was trying to get back to me but it was like quicksand. Every time she took a step she sunk up to her chest. I had visions of having to go in. I dont know if it was sheer determination or that it wasnt too deep but she somehow managed to scrabble towards me very slowly and i grabbed her harness and hiked her out. She was covered but that was better than what i thought was going to happen to her. We carried on our walk and about 3/4 of an hour later she threw up pig poo! I took her to the stream but my god she hums! I dont think i have been so scared in my entire life. Wont be going on that walk again in a hurry.

Oh Di that was dreadful. It sounded like a slurry pit that Lilia almost disappeared in! I'm so pleased she managed to get out before you had to go in for her! Only Lilia could get up to something which sounded like it came straight from a comedy clip. Hope the bath on Sunday helps her smell a bit better. I picked up some dog spray which smells very pleasant, maybe you should get something to mask the smell a bit!
Hope your nerves have recovered now hun xx
Hi Lynne, yes it was a slurry pit - a bloody deep one too! Shame my cameras broke or i could have sent it into you've been framed! The audio would be scary though! I can just imagine the people who lived near that field looking at each other and saying ''thats the mad dog woman!' Bloody dog i never know whats going to happen next. Shes been crashed out all day today with a vey gurgley belly! Might get some nice spray for her. My nerves - i think they've long gone. I hope Venus isnt so scatty! Di x

Frightened! I was hysterical screaming and sobbing imagining the worse. I had far too much to drink last night cos i was so upset so today ive got a stonking hangover, a bedroom that smells of pig poo and a dog with a very growly belly!

Hi Elsha, I can kinda see the humour in it now but she was going under can you imagine if the worst had happened and if you had to tell people she drowned in pig poo they wouldnt be able to keep a straight face would they! We met this pleasant chap on the way home and i thought she was going to kiss him! He bent down to stroke her - i could have died she stank! She insisted on cuddling into me last night - urgh! Shes oks now but surprisingly shes off her food though! I can honestly say theres never a dull moment when me and my girl are together! Hows the gorgeous Dray? Loving having his mum home i bet. Take care. Di xx

No Helga dont feel bad - i made light of it for my own sanity! It gutted me at the time but even i can see the funny side of it (just!).  If i didnt laugh i would (and did) cry! The most important thing is Lilia is crashed out on my bed fast asleep (god help me stinky bugger!). No way am i offended by any of the comments. Not many people would walk their dog there (apart from me!).  xx
