Gross! Gross! Gross weather this morning. Who expected snow the day after reaching 23 degrees? The morning group bore the brunt of the snow and perservered - except Ryder who wanted to be put in the truck after about 30 minutes. Poor little thing was shaking and shivering so bad I had to turn the heat up extra high. Bruin, Rover, Whistler, Everest and Frank soldiered on. There were very few friends at the park but we did manage to run into and walk with Nakita and Neo (huskies) and their mom for a short time.
The afternoon cleared up and looked promising but ended up just confusing us. We walked at Edworthy and the dogs were all very well behaved. Destiny and Taylor (the boxer sisters) seemed happy to be back with the group after several days at the kennel and were "flirting" with Sidney. He was very happy to have their attention and appreciated that they could run as fast as he could. They did not have the stamina so he had to come back for them several times. Bailey and Sam just wanted to fetch and had no interest in anything else. Gabby and Pina were very social with the people at the park and as usual made new friends (as if anyone has a choice with those two social butterflies).
Cesar Tip: Small dogs often use their teeth to dominate, because we let them get away with much more threatening or aggressive behaviour than we would a larger dog. No matter how small and cute your dog is, biting or baring teeth is not an acceptable behaviour.*
