Yesterday on our evening walk to Travancore Park, Genki learnt an important lesson; Don't run across the path of a cyclist.
The silly muppet dashed right across the path of an oncoming cyclist who didn't see her so ended up running Genks over. Where were Ant and I? Trying to hide from her because she was being cheeky by running across the park to a family who were minding their own business.
The cyclist came out of nowhere and I ran out from behind the bush I was hiding when I heard her yelp. She came running across the field back towards me but was more intent on finding Ant (who had run further away to hide so wasn't aware of what had happened). Eventually I knelt down and she jumped into my lap where I checked her for injuries.
The poor cyclist came up to me to check that she was ok too because according to him, he had 'clipped her pretty hard.' He seemed more shaken up than she was. At least he didn't tell me off for not putting her on a leash.
That cut short our walk because she seemed to be quite aloof and nervous. And she smelt really bad - like she had shat herself. So off home we went and Ant gave her a bath.
Let's see what the next walk brings.
