I went to the Dog Park

Now I am a big boy and ready to face anything Mum and Dad decided to take me to the dog park as I haven't met many dogs on our walks, so once the weather cooled down we went off to the dog park, I don't really like my travel crate in Dads car so I always make sure I make it difficult for him to shut me in and then I put on my really sad and pathetic look, but so far it's not working and he still makes me go in it.

When we got to the dog park I went through the first gate but the second gate had such a high step over that although I am big enough to step over it I waited till Mum helped me, I like them to think they are still useful, then no sooner had I got in there another dog came over to say hello, I don't understand why everyone wants me to be friends with other dogs, what do I get out of that? I would much rather see the people with the dog, they fuss me and even give me treats if I'm lucky, but another dog just wants to sniff my neither regions, the only reason for other dogs I can see is that they bring their peoples along.

I have a lovely fuss with Digby's mum then we had a walk round, and I got to sniff all the new smells such fun, when we were on our second lap, I spotted to ladies that hadn't had the opportunity to say hello and fuss me yet, so I decided I would make it easy for them and go over, I charged off leaving Mum and Dad behind and arrived in such a hurry I put my head though the lead one of the ladies was carrying, but that meant she had to give me immediate attention as she was worried I would get tangled, so my plan worked and they both stopped playing with their dogs and fussed and petted me telling me how cute and adorable I am, it nice to get that reassurance every now and then!
