Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

Roger Roger and Sputnik wanted to wrestle on the trails today.  However, they were on-leash and so we had an opportunity to practice restraint.  Benny didn't help matters as he wanted to get in on the fun and started nudging and nibbling Roger Roger's face when I was addressing Sputnik.  Eventually, everyone was able to settle down and walk along without picking at each other.  Roger Roger found a stick to carry and Sputnik either didn't notice or was excercising a great deal of self control because he made no attempts to steal it.  Oliver took up the rear and thoroughly sniffed the trail as we went while Benny walked alongside him with no particular focus.

Play Pack

Sadie spent the beginning of our park visit following Isaac as Isaac played fetch and ran in circles around me.  Later on, Sadie made friends with a young pup who had limited control of his limbs.  Sadie kept checking him to make sure he didn't trample over her and he did a good job of giving her space despite his flailing paws.  Thompson and Benny were both very interested in getting to know an older dog who was still in tact.  It was a bit much for the old guy, who repeatedly voiced his annoyance at their persistent nosing and hovering.
