Juno's First Dog Park Day

So I've been hearing about THE DOG PARK for as long as I can remember. It's one of Luna's favorite places and she and Harvey used to get to go all the time, she says. I kept hearing about how you can run as far and as fast as you want and there are all KINDS of other dogs to play with and people to pet you ... well, it just sounded great.

But until I had all my ready-for-prime-time doggie shots, the Dog Park wasn't an option for me.

So FINALLY -- this week -- the magic moment came! My mom got her keys and our leashes and said, "It's Dog Park Day!"

C'mon, Luna ... hurry up ... let's go. We're going to ...

... the Dog Park!!!

Hmmm ... I like the petting part but this really IS a big old place ...

I think I'll find a safe place to check it out from.

This'll work!

See ... if they REALLY want to pet me, they'll come find me, right? At least Seth will ... he's my favorite boy ...

Of course, if I come out just a LITTLE further, I can get my chest scratched ... and I like that ALOT!

And then I guess if I just sit right here beside the chair I can see what's going on and still feel safe.

OR ... I can venture out a little bit further and get some more attention from Seth and his mom, Beth ... they rock! (And some of these are their pictures!)

Yeah, this is totally working for me!

I think I'm going to like this dog park stuff!

When are we going back, Mom? Soon? Can we go soon? Please? Pretty please?

(After my nap, that is!)

Me 'n Luna are tired out from our big day at the Dog Park ...

... so I'll catch you later!
