Dog Day After Eight

Life is funny. You make this list of all these things you need to improve on. It's this endless list that gets things added on more often then taken off. And then sometimes you're just out doing the same thing you do everyday, and it just happens. You get the courage to check something off your list.

Countless times when taking my dog Emma outside in the evening, I've seen a group of dogs and people in the park across the street. I figured they must have some special club thing, and always thought it would be really neat if I took Em over one day and joined in.

Today was the day. She made a few friends, she cowered at a big mastiff cross named Pete who seemed to be in love with her. His owner kept saying "I know she's cute Pete, but leave her alone, you're scaring her". I met a few people as well, apparently they fell into an impromptu gather at the park nightly at Eight-ish. So Emma and I will be there tomorrow, and hopefully she'll hide behind me a little less, and play with the other dogs a little more ;0)
