Yep, thats right! We took all the furkids to the dog park. Even my Katie! You have no idea how happy this made Katie and Me! I have been to this dog park before when Kay and Amy were visiting and since I knew it was a pretty big park and also divided into two separate parts I thought that it might be ok to take Katie on her 20ft leash and that way I could let her roam a bit and still keep her close. I asked Anna what she thought and she said that she thought it might work out too. Well, I was so surprised how well Katie did. I just can't believe it. Katie got along quite well with all the dogs. She had a couple little growls and snaps at some dogs that she didn't click with but it wasn't anything and I was able to snap her back since she was on a leash. What I am really really happy about is how well she did with Anna's furkids. They all just walked around together like it was normal. We didn't make a big deal about it and just walked along and there was not a single growl from any of the 5 dogs. Katie and Bon didn't have a problem and Roxey and Katie seemed fine also. That one really surpised me because Roxey and Katie have never got along. Anyway I could go on and on. I mean I don't think I will be able to take Katie up to Anna's house anytime soon but hey you never know what might happen in the future. I have to add that our big boy Bon did wonderful as well! I am just so proud of him and Katie both. Anna has a thread in dog behavior and you can read more about that there. I have to tell you that I experienced first hand the prejudice against "large black dogs". I really can't beleive people sometimes. Ok, I'm rambling sorry. The furkids all had a good time!!! On with the pics!
