I really must get on and do some work, now I am more or less recovered... Only I thought I'd just share this first:

Thanks for that :-)

Yay! Cute dogs, is it me though or is one of them a little lazier than the other?

Well yes, but not the one you think! This clip is a bit misleading: Mollydog (ginger greyhound) is in ultrazoomy mode, and Az (blue lurcher) is allowing himself to be persuaded to join in.

Normally, Az will bounce along sniffing and chasing rabbits for miles on end, whereas Mollydog likes to give a brief reprise of her racing history, then after that she just wanders along behind.

I did think that when all the running was finished Molly would be eager to be chauffeured home in the car, so she could sleep on her beanbag for several hours :-)

I get the impression that one of the dogs is insisting that the other has his running lesson now; and when that is done they are both suddenly in need of direction.

I think you might be right! Mollydog (ginger) is the professional runner, being an ex-racing greyhound: it would not surprise me at all if she felt that Az's running wasn't as good and that he needs coaching...
