Walkin' in the Park

Mom had a cool surprise for me today. We went to the big park again! That's one of my favorite places. Of course I thought we were going to the groomer 'cause it's the same direction. But when Mom turned our car at a certain corner, I knew where we were heading. I was SO excited by the time that we got to the parking lot that Mom said I was hurting her ears with all of my yipping and whining. Sorry...but I was excited and she wasn't moving fast enough!

I ran in circles when we got out of the car. If you were at this park you'd do the same thing. It's such a cool place! There were a bazillion other doggies at the park today. I'm sure they were just as excited as I was.

Today Mom tooked our camera so that I could show you some of the stuff at my big park. Here's the big sign by the parking lot. Mom said you might want to know what park this is. I think that's silly 'cause it's the big park and everyone should know that. But, oh well. Here's the sign. I think it says, "The Big, Cool Park" on it.


Here's me walking over a bridge. We don't usually go this way 'cause it's a lot longer and I get tired. (My legs are pretty little...) We used to go this way lots, but Mom said we've both had too many cookies to walk this way now. Anyway, we walked a little way this direction and then turned around.


There's a HUGE bunny rabbit statue at the park. Mom tried to take a picture of me sitting with the bunny, but I was too excited to sit there. (Sorry, Mom.)


I got a little tired 'cause the sun was so shiny today and we were walking more than we usually do. Had to sit and rest for a bit.


Here's a picture of me admiring one of the statues. Mom says there are lots of statues at the park for the humans to enjoy. I don't usually pay attention to 'em 'cause there's so much other stuff there for doggies to sniff and check out.


I love this sign 'cause there are always great sniffs on it. I think the humans put it there as a sort of porta potty for dogs. I mean, it's a post with a picture of a doggie on it. Doesn't that just scream "pee on me!"?


Here's me with another statue. I was trying to figure out what was takin' Mom so long. She was taking too much time fiddling with the camera and not enough time walking!


This is a sign with a map of my big park and all of the cool trails to walk on. (It's another great sign to sniff!)


In this picture I'm thinking, "Come on, Mom! Stop taking pictures and just enjoy the park!"


The park's got lots of trees and regularly grassy spots. There's also lots of super-tall grass. It's as tall as Mom!


I tried not to let all of those leafs on the sidewalk spoil my walk. I don't like leafs!


I was really thirsty after all of that walking. Mom usually keeps a water bowl and some water in the car for me, though, so I can get a drink after we've walked. That's a good idea in my opinion 'cause I was super thirsty today. She thought I was gonna drink the whole bowl full.


"Stop taking pictures of me, Mom. I was just takin' a drink!"


All of that walking at the park wore me out. So I had to take a nap when we got home. (Mom thinks I'm cute when I'm sleepy. Heck, I'm cute all of the time.)


So those are all the pictures of my walk at the big park today. Isn't it a cool place? I hope we get to go back tomorrow. I love the park!

The Big, Big Park

Mom wasn't very happy with me today 'cause I kept her up in the night. I thought she would be scared of those thunder booms like I was. I guess she wasn't. Oh, well.

Anyways, she couldn't have been too upset with me 'cause tonight she had a special treat for me. We went to the big, big park! We never go there 'cause we have to drive there in our car. My pond is right by our house, so that's lots closer. But tonight I got to go to the big park. Yeah!

The big park has grass that's taller than my Mom. Nice sidewalks to walk on, too, through all the trees and tall grass. Mom said there are sculptures for peoples to look at, but those don't really matter to me. I had my eyes on the grass and the trees. I loved all of the cool smells. I sniffed everything, too. My kept saying, "Do you really have to sniff every tree?!" and I would just keep on sniffing! I had so much fun.

We went for a long walk in the big park and it was getting dark out by the time we got back to our car. I was pretty tired when we got home, but I sure had fun at the big park!

A Walk in the Park

Mom took me to that really, super-cool park again tonight! I had so much fun. I got pretty excited when she pulled into the parking lot 'cause I remembered when we went there before.

This time we went on a really long walk around the park, though -- way longer than we went the last time! There were SO many new smells to sniff. You wouldn't believe how many other doggies had been there.

It was really fun to go on such a long sniffing spree, but I got a little tired in the middle. Mom couldn't keep up with me at the start, then I couldn't keep up with her in the middle, but then she couldn't keep up with me again at the end. That was so funny.

I love the park!

Oh, What a Beautiful Day!

I had such a cool day yesterday!

Mom took me for a walk around the pond early in the morning. She usually doesn't take me to the pond when I wake her up early like that. She did yesterday, though. It was a beautiful day, too. There was this huge puddle over there -- the sidewalk was flooded from all of the rain we've had. You know what I did? Mom tried to get me to walk around the water, but I decided to go right through the middle! I got all wet up to my sides. My belly was completely soaked. Mom couldn't believe I did that because I hate to take baths. This was different, though. It was a puddle! I am a dog, after all...

Last night, Mom took me to the park, too. I got to go for two long walks in one day! How cool is that?! We hadn't gone to the park in a long time. There was all sorts of stuff to sniff there. Lots of doggies had been at the park, so I had to leave my mark on a lot of stuff. I love going to the park!

Today it was back to work for Mom and I, though. Bummer. Oh, well. I'm gonna keep thinking about that park...I hope she takes me again soon!
