fowl play

Things were going swimmingly well on our morning walk until Logan’s weakness for feathered creatures got the better of him. He was so focused on chasing ducks that he forgot his aversion to water and followed them straight into the ocean.

The last time something like this happened, he was with a dog trainer to work on recall. He strayed from the pack to go after bush turkeys and indulged in unsanctioned swims at the beach, which led to his suspension from the training facility.

Initially, this brought shame to our family, known for raising obedient overachievers, but we’ve since realised that Logan’s quirky pursuits add character, so now, we’re embracing his bird-brained adventures with pride.
