Leader of the Pack

The Adventure Pack

Rucksack and Toskey both had fun playing with Mogul on today's hike.  Rucksack approached Mogul slowly until Mogul broke his stance and chased him around.  Later, Toskey and Mogul ran around together, each chasing the other for brief spurts.  Coco got jealous when she saw Toskey and Mogul running together and she gave me a pretty good rope burn when she pulled the leash through my grip in an excited leap toward them.  Everyone got treats throughout the hike after I called their names periodically and they came up to me and sat.

The Play Pack

Benny and Mogul both played a lot with other dogs at the park today.  Benny spent a long while with one dog named Bowser.  A black Lab came over to the two of them and Benny got pushed around a bit between them but the black Lab's person called him away and Benny and Bowser continued to play together afterward.  Maverick hopped around a Staffordshire Terrier/Chesaspeake Bay Retriever mix named Bear but gave him mixed messages with his simultaneous growls and playful body language so Bear left himn alone.  Cooper chased after a softball for a little while and fetched it back to me for at least half of the throws.  When fetch got boring, he just followed me around for most of the time.  I think Cooper would be happy if I just sat and stared at him for the whole park visit.
