Canines Unleashed...
Jan. 23rd, 2011 03:31 pmSince it's so freaking cold outside, I took Dahlia over to Canines Unleashed this afternoon. For $5 you could let your dog play with other dogs. They're not open today, so this is just a special thing for fun. Thank God because walks when it's this cold are not fun! Later I'm going to HAVE to put Dahlia's booties on just to protect her feet from the cold!
So Dahlia was like she always was at the dog park: mostly a wall flower, and generally interested in meeting people and doing a bit of greeting with the other dogs. None of the dogs were really running around and chasing, so she mostly just chilled out. She did get a little bit of chase in. We met a woman who adopted her border collie a month ago. We were both thinking she had a tail injury at one point because it looks like her tail was partially amputated. It's far too short and where it ends it doesn't taper like a tail usually does. It just sort of ends. Sweetie is about 2 years old (and was in a foster home for a YEAR -- I cannot even understand how such a sweet, mellow dog was not adopted before now!) and her name fits her. She was SO SWEET. And so much like Dahlia in personality, even down to the belly rubs and putting a paw on you while you were rubbing her belly. Nice dog and her owner seemed like a cool person.
I brought my camera, but it was too dark in the room to get many photos. I took most of them in our very short stints to the outside for some pee breaks.
