I Want to Play

It was a beautiful day a the park today. The sun was out and it was easier to walk under foot.

Hooray for me and for all of you. I was a really good boy in the car today. I got off lead early and I ran away from my person. I ran over to a lab on lead. It might have been Boomer but I had my nose nabber on so it was OK. As we walked today we saw a woman with a dog we did not know so my person put me on lead. The dog was older and the person got nervous that I was going to be a jerk. My person talked to that person and we all just went our own way. I got off lead again and I saw Rosie (choc lab). She had her usual ball in her mouth. My person let me stay off lead. Even though Rosie is a young dog she does not make me get those scary I better be dominate sort of thing. My Person and Rosie's Person chatted about my snout snapper and my dominate pushy ways. She is a nice person and was really understanding ab out me behaving badly sometimes. Right after that we saw Nikita. I really wanted to play with her. She is a very fun loving little dog. I just love her. She is little and jumps in my face but I just want to play and play with her. She is the funnest little one. I can still play with my muzzle on but it is not as much fun. I hope next time I get to take my nose naber off and play with Nikita.

I saw Ridge (yellow lab) with a friend named Marley (yellow lab). I did OK but I ran after Ridgey because he kept jumping up on my person and being silly. With my muzzle on I did not seem nearly as scary. It still earned me a trip onto the lead. On the way out we saw another Chocolate Lab who was running all over the woods. There was a little Rat Terrier that was on lead too and looking for a way off. They seemed like fun dogs and I wanted to be the old Merlin so I could have fun.

When my person and I were leaving we saw Mel (hound mix) and Bella (Golden) getting out of their cars. They were on either side of my people mobile. My person put me in sit, stay. I stayed right there and did not pull or complain at all.

Mel has a muzzle too. She has it for the delectable poop treats. I knew as soon as I started wearing this thing it would be what every dog would want. I may have showed that I am not perfect but I am still a good example of some things to other dogs. I still got it.
