dog parks unpredictable!!

I have loved every minute of the new dog park experience up until today. My dogs always have a great time, but today was a challenge, to say the least. One male mini-poodle apparently spends all his time at the park mounting the other dogs...male, female, moving, standing still...doesn't matter!

Awesome Christmas gift

He took a picture of my red LD this summer and played with it on photoshop so that it's all in grey tones on a white background--very abstract, but a lovely portrait of my cute little pup! He printed it in a large size and framed it for me! I will try to take a picture of it for all to see.

first day at our dog park

They just loved running around with all the dogs...it was a great success. Can't wait to go back!

It started out on a bad note when I saw a woman with a dog that looked a bit "doodle-ish". I had already met a lovely Australian labradoodle (like my… Continue
