[NAGDU] Taking really long walks

[Cindy Ray]

Oh, just for the record, my fall the other day was not with my dog, but I
have fallen with my dog in much the same way that Tracy fell with hers. But
what is not OK, as I said, is when said dog pulls me down because he is
distracted by other dogs. I've retired him now and am not using him.

Original I am so sorry you fell.
I hope you didn't brake anything.
Maybe the next time you go to that area, your dog will slow down.
Wishing you the best.
