I am just so happy to have the dog park today. It was just one of those days when I we would just zip through the park without the socialization portion of the walk. I don't know why I ever think that. First of all we know a lot of dogs and peeps there. Plus, if you know my person you know she just loves to talk!
Anyway, we headed down the path the way we used to always go . Down at the river there were a few dogs I did not know but I took a big long dip in the water. I felt to good.
Off we went and walked alone until we got to the top of the big hill. We saw Cody with the beautiful tail. I was so glad that my person brushed me yesterday because that Cody really does have a tail that makes him a contender!
We saw Amber with Pierre, Benji and the lovely little Trixie in the distance. We stopped and hung with them for awhile and the socialization began. Yap, yap, yap! I really like all those dogs so it is good to hang with them. We also saw the family Elvis. That includes the 2 Bassets, Elvis and Bessie (I think) the Dachshund Brewster and the Mastiff puppy, Henry. Boy, I thought we had a big family. Henry is not even a year old yet and he is starting to get almost as big as Abby the Mastiff.
Daisy showed up a little ways down the path. Wow! 2 days in a row. Lucky me. OK now here is the part that I do not want to tell you but my person is insisting. I did not report this the other day and I thought I had slid under the radar. My person and I saw Josie today and my person had to stop and tell her this story so she is now insisting I blog about it. OK we were leaving the park on Saturday morning and we saw Josie's person but Josie was not right next to her. Neither of us thought much about that. As we continued down the path we saw Josie on the right hand side of the path intent on something on the ground. I hurried up to see what she was up to. It was a little tiny mouse. It was as small as the fake ones we have at home for our feline siblings. So, Josie was bating it back and forth. What my person also wants me to tell you is that as I approached them I jumped backward and almost fell over. My person thought that I had been stung by something so she hurried up to be sure I was OK. Once she saw the mouse she laughed her head off. It startled me is all. I was not afraid. Well, sort of not afraid.
Anyway, there I told the whole story!

Merlin, I think you're very brave --- don't be bothered about your mother laughing at you because of the mouse.
I'll tell you a secret: we have a chipmunk that yells at me that comes out of a hole in the side of our house (sometimes water and bubbles come out of there too!) and that chipmunk scares me every time when I forget it's there!
So I want you to know I understand.
Ziggy.
(I had a GREAT time with you and Cassius this morning!!!)
