We were out at the dog park again last night. By muddy, I guess I mean paw muddy. The grass has filled in a lot of the spots so it is not as bare adn muddy in most places like it was earlier this year. Although there are still a few spots that get fairly muddy. Right now water is standing in some of the lower areas - but the grass is over them but they do splash rather nicely when the dogs race through them. The dogs were drinking this water although we were trying to discourage them.
The good news, although they were a little wet, esp. Taggert who loved racing through the water, their paws were only a little muddy and by the time we walked through the paved parking lot, I don't think any mud even got on the seats. And thankfully no one had to have a bath. what little mud that had stuck brushed off when they were dry. Thank God!!!!Giving five dogs baths at 9:30 is just too much for this old lady.
Today is the last real rain that we are expecting - just a chance the rest of the weekend. So hopefully even the standing water will have soaked in and it won't be too bad.
There was a golden out there that kind of loves to roll around and be belly rubbed etc. and he might have needed a bath when he got home. He always seems to pick the muddiest spot to roll in. There was also a blue heeler pup and he got kind of dirty for the same reason - he had to show submission to all the bigger guys and so he spent a lot of time rolling around.
Can't wait for Sunday and to see you all and the puppers. Bug spray might be a good thing to add to what you are bringing. All the rain seems to be bringing out the mosquitoes and gnats.

We'll bring some condiments too. What are we doing for drinks? Is it BYOB (Bring Your Own Beverage) lol?
