People arrive. Calm lead walk around town, all very well behaved etc. people: "doesn't Charlie walk on his lead nicely!" Me:"oh, do you think so? Well, thanks". Smug, smug, smug. Quick last trip out to see views, drive to best spot. I'm privately planning to casually show off Charlie's recall and stop whistle as we walk across field. Charlie finds fox poo. Not a bit of fox poo, a huge load of fresh gooey fox poo. Rolls in fox poo. Great lumps of it stick to his collar, head, back and tail. He stinks like a whole cow shed full of fox poo, even in the open air. We have a short wheel based defender. People and dog very, very close together.... All windows open, and a lot of coughing on the way home. Charlie looks extremely pleased with himself...
Re: Pride before fall... I'm full of cold so as I was reading this my laughing turned into coughing too ;D ;D. ;D Bet there was a bit of hand wafting and eye watering too ! X
