What a busy weekend it has been! There has been a lot of playing, walks, treats, and love for these four pups.
Friday started out with a romp at the nearby playground for Meatball, Apache, Roxy, and Kylee. Kylee had a blast chasing and playing tag with Meatball and Apache on the play yard. Kylee kept trying to convince Meatball to try the slide, but she had to settle with only Apache following in her footsteps. Roxy decided to stick to solid ground completely. There was no convincing there.
Apache and Roxy banded together and both found mischief while at the playground. You could you smell the two of them before you even saw them come around the corner from their little escapade. A garlic bulb had been misplaced out of the garden and these two thought it would be fun to take a nice roll in the garlic. Yum! At least they won't have to worry about vampires, or much of anything else with that stink. It took a nice bath for Roxy and an extreme wipe down of Apache to restore their femininity.
Trips to the dog park were made on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Douglas was able to join up for each trip and Roxy joined in on Sunday's adventure. These pups made sure to hit up all of the hot spots: Utah Dog Park and Walter Reed Dog Park. We went at just the right time to meet up with all the latest happenings.
Meatball and Apache were in luck, there were many dogs there that loved to wrestle and race. They both were able to do what they like most. Even Douglas tried to keep up with the pack several times when things were getting pretty wild and crazy.
Roxy and Douglas became pretty good pals while they stayed with Kylee and I. It definitely was not love at first sight for Roxy, but Douglas eventually grew on her when she realized he was a pretty good competitor in fetch. These two would play fetch for almost an hour without getting bored or tired. (Douglas is begging Roxy for the ball and my arm was begging for a break.)
What is better than the happy faces of two satisfied pups?
They had both eaten dinner, played fetch, received a treat, and finished up with a walk around the block.
At the end of the day everyone was so tuckered out, that it was almost impossible for anyone to keep their eyes open past 9:30. (These two definitely are not making the cut for late night party animals.) Even Meatball and Apache were pretty slow and would drudge on their bedtime walks.
Car ride buddies! Apache and Douglas made quite a pair with the two of them cruising the city streets of Alexandria with their heads and tongues hanging out. (Okay, so Douglas was the only one with his tongue hanging out.) It was hilarious to watch people's expressions as we drove by, especially depending on what side of the car they saw: right side = Douglas & Apache and left side = Meatball & Roxy.
