Leader of the Pack

The Adventure Pack

We came across a family who were enamored with Benny and Oliver today.  The little girl followed Oliver around with a camera for a couple minutes, trying to get a good picture of him, but Oliver kept walking away and dodging the photos.  When she gave up on Oliver and took one of Benny, Benny stood perfectly still and looked right at her with a panting smile on his face.  I guess Benny feels more comfortable about his photogenic qualities.

The Play Pack

Sage went back and forth between fetching a tennis ball and joining chases to run alongside the other dogs.  Although those interruptions were relatively few and brief, it was fun seeing her run with the other dogs.  Oscar was almost always involved in the chases that Sage joined in on, as well as many others.  Sometimes, if he gets bored, he'll just bark a couple times and sprint off on his own to try to get things started.  If that doesn't work, he often ends up running back and crashing into Benny, who barely notices the impact.  Sometimes, with enough effort, Oscar manages to rile Benny up into chasing or wrestling him, but today was not one of those days.
