Today I took my dog, Sophie, to the park which is a couple of blocks from my house. She hasn't been to the park for a long time because of her neglectful mother.
At the park there was a wide variety of dogs (which I did not expect because it was early in the morning). Since Sophie is part border collie, she tries to herd any thing that is small and moves (like our cat Nola, rabbits, miscellaneous chihuahuas, and any give bird). Today Sophie decided it was a great idea to herd three chihuahuas, Lula, Kitty and Baby (I think there might have been one call Pookie Love Bear or something like that). Unbeknownst to Sophie all three have been raised by a giant schnauzer, and believe me Oz was a giant. So, as Sophie was trying to dominate these little munchkins they all ganged up on her and chased her towards me. Her back hairs were standing up and they were all herding her. I think this must have come to her as a shock, because little guys weren't supposed to attack big guys. That's not how the jungle works.
After this playful episode a little basset hound (Stella) got loose from her mother and ran full speed (well, as much speed as a little basset hound with T-rex arms can run) towards me and Soph. Stella was checking out Soph and vice versa while Oz ran over to smell Stella. It was a dog butt sniffing fest and all were invited.
Fun times at the park today.
