Swifter than a running deer...

This morning we found a deer when out walking. My immediate reaction was to grab Az and get him on-lead, and fortunately I managed to do that before he worked out what was going on.

Mollydog saw the deer first and took off after it like a speeding bullet, but there was no help for that, I was busy with Az. Az safely on lead, I turned to look for Mollydog, only to see her *overtake* the deer, do a big victory circuit round the field and come racing back to tell me how she WON THE RACE. Who said racing greyhounds only run because they want to catch things...?

I had to give her a round of applause when she arrived back in front of me (she loves applause) she looked so pleased with herself.
