This is Sahraa getting her morning “run” in our tiny back garden. We live near two large parks, full of dogs, where she can run around, providing the Park Police aren’t in the area, but instead, she likes to race around the flowerbed, under the holly and back, again and again. Of course, we have to pretend like we are chasing her. I was only able to get this shot because she was too busy to notice my cell phone!
