A new place to play

Mom wanted to get some work done today, so thought she’d take me to my hangout to play with my friends. Mom calls it “Cheers” because it’s where I go that everyone knows my name. Well, not everyone, but the regulars do.


My friend, Kiley’s mom (Kiley isn’t my friend yet), was there and a bunch of dogs I didn’t know. Most of them were big, so I decided to just chillax next to Mom. There was no way that I wanted to bring any attention to my self around those guys. Mom said that I could just chillax at home, so we left the park. Little did I know that we were going to ANOTHER dog park. Mom’s heard good things about this park and so off we went.


When we first got there, Mom took me to the ‘little’ dog area. Some of those little dogs were really rude and not fun like the dogs at my regular hangout, so we trotted over to the big dog park. Mom and I walked toward a group of people standing in a circle watching their dogs. It was a lot like what goes on at the other place, so we decided to hang out with them. There were two bulldogs, one beagle and a baby pug. I followed the beagle around for a while, but he wasn’t really interested in chasing me, so I sat next to Mom and chilled. One of the bulldogs came over and pushed his nose up under my chest and I knew what THAT meant! He wanted to play!


He chased me around for a while and then the baby pug got in on the action. We raced around in big circles around the moms and dads and then I had a GREAT idea! I took off as far as I could, way far away from Mom. She tells me that she was calling my name, but I didn’t hear her (tee hee). She decided that we’d been out long enough (almost four hours), so we headed toward the gate. That’s where I met a really cute little human girl that wanted to play with me. Normally, I only like human boys, but she seemed nice enough. She was soo nice, that I decided that Mom could just go home by herself. I wanted to follow that girl.


That was pretty much the end of the fun until we got home. Mom thought that I’d be pooped out from all the running, but it was such a nice day! I begged and whined until Mom took me outside to play in my play area. I swam in my pool and did a little digging around in the dirt. It’s two hours later and I’m still trying to blow that dirt out of my nose.








Oh, and remember that present from Grandma that I told you about? Here I am wearing it:





I think Grandma is on to something…. I DO look pretty tough, not to mention handsome.





Thanks Grandma! I can’t wait until it fits. I’ll be king of the park and EVERYONE will know that I mean business!
