Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

Everybody howl…ahoooooooooo!

My sister called me today to see if I wanted to go to the dog park with her (and, you-know-who).

When she got to my house, she told me that Rocket knew exactly where they were going. When my sister passed the park to pick me up, Rocket flipped out. She whined, howled, and carried on to let my sister know she had passed by the desired destination.  What a character! I can just hear her little pea brain trying to figure out why my sister wasn’t turning into the parking lot for the dog park.

‘Where is she going? Doesn’t she know she passed it? She has to know,  it’s right-there!’

Oh the agonies and drama of being a small bred dog.

The first thing you do when you get to the park, is sniff.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then, you say, ‘hi’ to whomever is there. They are usually sniffing too. It’s cool. That’s how we roll at the dog park.

See the little guy I highlighted? I was busy taking another picture and I feel something ram into my knee. I look down and this little guy is jumping up at me as if he had springs tied to the bottoms of his feet. He was jumping straight up about 2-3 feet! PING! PING! PING! Have you ever been so full of joy you just had to jump? Maybe you need to go to the dark park more often.

The dp used to be very over grown and jungle-like. We were surprised to see that it had been cleared out of all the under brush. I hope they left the apple tree alone.

It’s so purdy!

Although a good time was had by all, I think one of us enjoyed it a bit more than the rest of us. Look at that smile! She’s a happy pappy.
