I must be fast here because my sisters, Jessie and Mimi are already lounging in the back yard. My person took us on the longer of the short loop walks today. The dog park is really a series of loops. We usually go all the way around the big one. There are several smaller loops and she went on the longest of the short loops. I guess that was OK. We saw Mel and Lola when we first got there. Lola is not as submissive as she used to be so I leave her alone. I was only trying to get her to play before. Scooter, Winnie and Pearl were all on their way out when we got about 1/2 way down the first path. Scooter and Winnie's person kissed the top of my head. That was cool. We saw the Newfies on the top of the hill with the bench on it. That is one of my persons favorite spots at the park. I love it too. Before we headed up that way we saw some person with a people puppy on his back. Why they don't let them scamper on the ground and get a good sniff routine going I will never know. So, of course my person had to stay and say hello, make stupid noises and wave her hands. What is the point? Just when I think she has had her fill we see Callie with her person and their people puppy. My person knows that person better so we had to stay even longer while she made a fool of herself making noises and giggling with that people puppy. The good news was we did not walk with them we headed up the second biggest hill at the park.
This is the one that leads to the bench. At the top we saw Ziggy with these 2 new dogs named Chuck and Sam. Good solid names I say! I really liked Sam. He is a puppy Pitt Bull. Sometimes people with bad intentions train Pitt Bulls to be mean. That makes me so sad I could just cry. Not Sam though. He was just a young strong, energetic guy with energy to burn. I chased a ball with him and Liken for awhile. Sam and Chuck's person seemed really nice. I am glad Sam won't be treated badly. I am also glad my person does not judge others by bread alone and let me play with him. I almost forgot. We saw 2 pure breed Bernese Mountain Dogs today. It was a little like looking in a mirror. They were cool guys but the person with them was just a dog sitter and not as interested in those dogs as a person should be. I hope their real people come home soon. We saw the Newfies on the way out. Kika had taken off and their person looked like she was over the dog park for the day. (tee, hee) So, Bosco showed up as we were getting right close to the parking lot. I do love Bosco but I am going to make a confession. He scares me just a little at first. I am not sure why. I laid down and put my head between my person's legs. There was no other dogs around and Mimi actually came to my defense. That was sort of cool and embarrassing at the same time. OK I am off to the yard to hang with my sisters. Be well my friends and lay in the sun. It is good for your soul! Merlin!
