It's been pretty rainy lately but in between the breaks in the rain, I've been using the new dog park that our apartment complex installed. I've mostly been using it when there's no one else in there. Most of the dogs in our complex are not friendly.
"Hello there!"
Recently the girls have been hanging out in one corner of the dog park. When I got closer to investigate I found a HUGE gap in the fence!
Isn't that pup cute!? The girls were trying to make friends with him/her. They've been bouncing around trying to invite their friend into the park.
It doesn't look like much of a gap from this angle! I emailed the apartment manager about the gap/loose board and they couldn't even find it! I had to send pictures. I was actually pretty excited that Phoenix had an appropriate interaction with the dog behind the fence because she can be fence/barrier aggressive.
Has your dog ever made a friend in an unusual way?
How nice that your complex got its own dog park! Maybe some of those mean dogs will be more friendly when they're off leash in there?
ReplyDeleteChewy loves to sniff through the fence at dog parks, cuz there's usually small dogs on the other side. Sometimes they run back and forth along the fence, and it's pretty cute.
Awww...that's sweet! Maybe you should invite the neighbor to bring their dog to the park to play!
ReplyDeleteMe and Stanley make furends every place we go. Mom says we are very social! We are playing catch up since we have been working on the Heart 2 Heart Dance!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Hmmm...maybe he is security? BOL!!! Looking like that I think he is!!! Your girls sure are brave!
ReplyDeleteA shop dog ran out of the store to meet Mr. N (allegedly the first time she has ever done this) and they became pretty good wrestling buddies.
ReplyDeleteI would really love to utilize the dog park near my house, but I will have to get up around 5 a.m. to do so...maybe this summer. Right now it's of course still dark at that hour.
ReplyDeleteMy friend and I used to go to the dog park in the dark when I first realized Phoenix was reactive. That way she could still socialize but only with my friend's dog. My husband thought we were crazy for going out there in the dark but it was so nice not having to deal with other people!
DeleteLucky girls! We don't have any dog parks around here! Looks like someone wants to be friends! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteAww, hooray for new friends! Is that a mastiff on the other side?
ReplyDeleteMauja and Atka are both super dog social, but I still won't go to the dog park near us. Too many irresponsible people that ruin the fun : /
I think it's a mastiff puppy! I don't blame you for not going to the dog park. This one is in our apartment complex and only the people who live here are allowed to use it. Usually there's no one in there! LOL
DeleteThat pup is adorable! Is it a Mastiff?
ReplyDeleteI think so! I think it's a mastiff puppy. At first I thought it was a full grown boxer and then I got a closer look. LOL
DeleteIt's cool that your apartment complex has a dog park! Good job to Phoenix!!!! What a cute pup.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have any dog parks really close by but Leroy tries to make friends out on walks all the time!
ReplyDeleteAwww, that's sweet. Rita sometimes surprises me and makes friends with a pup on the other side of a fence! It always seems like a big win!
ReplyDeleteHow nice for new friends. :) It is also nice that you have a fenced dog area where you live.
ReplyDeleteThey couldn't even find it? Sheesh! Good job for your pup finding it!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to meet a new friend too :)
