Today mom and dad took me to this great new park where i got to run a play for 2 hours.
I don't think i realize that i'm not small enough to hide in the grass.
This is a dog's life.
This park is on the Sammamish River, and there are lots of places for dogs to go swimming. I really wanted to get in the water, but i wasn't too sure about it.
Mom even got in the river to try to get me to come to her for a treat. I really wanted that salmon treat, but i still didn't go in (even though i thought about it long and hard).
It looks like so much fun, i don't want to be the only kid left out.
After about an hour of contemplating, dad also getting in the river and some 'persuasive encouragement' from mom (aka gentle pushing in) I finally did it!!
Hey guys, this isn't so bad. Why didn't we hope in this water an hour ago?
Wow, that dog is way out there swimming. Maybe i could give it a try.
OK, we might have to work on this swimming thing.....
Seriously people, at least i got in the river. And, i made a new malamute friend.
After lots of swimming and running around i got a bath. There was a Wash Spot dog bathing place right by the entrance to the dog park. It wasn't so bad, it was like getting a massage, except for the blow dryer. What self-respecting dog lets himself get blown dry when there is the tried and true method of shaking off?
I had so much fun today that i'm so tired, i won't even get up off the couch.
