Jethro and Gabriel

I took them all for a walk on the mountain this morning. I walked Jethro and Gabriel on the lead for a while and when they started showing an interest to walk with mine, let them off. Big mistake! They have only ever been walked on a split-lead, ie side by side and so took off when someone came round the corner. I eventually managed to find one, and then started walking slowly back to the car as I was sure the other would have headed back to the familiar. Found him and needless to say they remained on lead for the remainder of the walk. They are pooped and have finally settled.
