On Black Friday, instead of us running around town and in the stores, we let the dog do the running. We took her to the local bark park. This was her second visit, the first one being a bit overwhelming and strange for her. On this outing she was willing to venture a little farther from her people, though not
too far. We,
her humans, congregated on benches in a corner. It was interesting how she started to guard that piece of the park as her own territory. Every dog that ventured toward us was thoroughly sniffed and screened. It was a good outing for us, too. Walking to the park, getting fresh air, and sitting in the afternoon sun. Much better than
fighting the shopping crowds. I think we'll be taking her there again.

Dog park always sounds fun to me; we have one here, but not having a dog, I've never been there, even to watch. I supposed they'd let me in, wouldn't they?
Looks like a fun day.
LOL, Gnightgirl! Yes, I think they'd let you in. :-) Actually, when we were there, there were more humans than dogs. It was fun to watch the dogs run and play like a pack of little kids. Reminded me of when we used to play "touch" football in the neighborhood.
