Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

Roger Roger was over-enthused when he first went off the leash today.  He jumped around the pack, barking and nudging them to try to elicit some response.  He was especially interested in getting Rucksack or Sputnik's attentions.  It was good practice for Sputnik to hold back from reacting despite the harassment and he did a very good job of keeping calm while I addressed his rambunctious packmate.  Meanwhile, Oliver was exploring the trail ahead and Benny was hiking along at my other side, not being targeted by Roger Roger.  Eventually, Roger Roger calmed down and hiked along nicely with his packmates.

Play Pack

Ruffers and Sadie went straight to playing with each other when we got to the park, as if picking up where they left off last time without missing a beat.  A couple other pups came and went from the mix while the two of them ran and wrestled.  Meanwhile, Thompson had a playful encounter with another big dog who hopped around with him briefly.  Milo and Benny nuzzled and mouthed each other's faces for a while after Benny went up to Milo and pawed at his shoulder for attention.
