FUN WITH THE DOGS!

Well last night was Kenny and I's first night of dog walking at the Humane Society. If you are anywhere in the Memphis area you know how crazy the wind was yesterday. It was blowing so hard. There were even a lot of power outages in the greater Memphis area due to the wind. But luckily when I was getting dressed to go the wind was not too chilly. Just really strong. BUT, once we got there the sun went down and the temperatures started to D-R-O-P! I have never been in cold weather when it was this windy. It was soooo cold. It felt like the wind was going right through you.

All that aside. Walking the dogs was so much fun. The dogs really are so sweet. Kenny and I met our group leader, Paul and he taught us how to leash the dogs up to take them outside. Then you let them off the leash and they run like crazy in these play yards. It's like kids at recess. They have so much fun and they just love it. (They did not care about the wind, except for a few of them kept looking up like what is going on). Our group lets them stay out around 15 to 20 minutes and then we give them treats and take them back inside to warm up. (and warm up ourselves! sheesh!) But Kenny and I really enjoyed it and we can't wait for next Tuesday.
