Dog Park Smakk
Yesterday was another test to see if I can act like a normal dog yet. I guess I passed. They took me to the dog park. We stood outside the small dog gate and the large dog gate for a few minutes while they tried to decide which one I would behave better in. They decided that I'm a large dog which made me happy. I puffed out my chest and walked in proudly. Once I got in the gate though I became nervous. What was going on? Were they going to dump me here with all these other dogs? Oh hey, hi, ok sniff my butt. Now I'll sniff yours. Nice to meet you. We walk a few more feet and there is some more butt sniffing. I realize then that my neck feels free of a leash. Now I'm really getting nervous. What is going on? They sit down on a bench and I hang out with them. How long are we going to sit here? Should I just go sniff some butts and the ground a few thousand times? I slowly venture off on my own. Wait, where did they go? I panic until I find them again and realize they are only 3 feet from me. I continue doing my own thing. I walked by a guy sitting in a chair and lifted my leg to mark my territory. Yes, I needed to mark my territory on his chair. That wasn't enough though. Then I started kicking up dirt all over the place like a cat covering up its business. The guys chair was covered in dirt. I lost my owner again. I found him and bunny laughing hysterically. I'm not sure what they found so funny. The guy with the dirt covered chair wasn't laughing. The rest of the time I peed on another chair,ran around sniffing other dog and running in circles. I hate to admit it but I had a good time. I think I'm almost a normal dog now....as soon as I get over my fear of this thing called a ball.
