Zeus is a scamp! And I adore him. 🖤 Saying this, I do hope you are out of the field!

I am! I made it out! My partners suggestion of herding him to the end near the gate finally worked he 3rd or 4th time I tried it. Not before I fell over and got covered in pollen and grass seed and insects though! It reminded me of my feral years, living with my dad at Brook Farm so was all sorted of wonderful tho also derailed my morning completely.

I usually do that myself (derail my morning) so was nice to have Zeus do it!

He's lying beside me now, so sure he's the best boy. I just love him so much!!

He is! Well, I assume the English part. He was born in England so maybe?

I used to always have a ball in my pocket after he went through a really bad patch and humiliated me in front of my peers but it hasn't happened for a while so I relaxed.

The lesson?

Never. Relax.
