Got Dog?

It's such a better world today!   Ahhhh, its so nice to say that.  Work went well - it was busy, and that's good - the day went fast, but it was a much better day today.  And for that, I was grateful :)

Sadie is becoming a regular traveler in the car, and does well.  She knows to stay in the back seat (don't worry, I still have her clipped in so she can't go anywhere, even if she wanted to!).  But she doesn't bark at drive through windows any longer.  When we walk in the park, she's getting better and better about meeting other dogs - a quick sniff hello and then off we go again.  Being that pugs are a very friendly breed, she loves people.  If she could, she would greet every single person who comes within range of us.  She's getting better about that as well.  If the person near us seems to be a dog person, I let them make the first move toward saying hello to Sadie.  But there are also non-dog people and Sadie seems to want to convince those kind that "dogs are people too" lol. 

Today, a quick jaunt around the pond at Riparian (our fav place to go) and one of the guys fishing put down his pole and gravitated to Sadie saying he has three pugs of his own at home.  He petted her, talked to her, and she looked ready to take him home with us!  lol  Someone said:  'The best way to find a new boyfriend is to get a dog.'  --And how does that work exactly?--  'Well, firstly, you have to walk it several times a day, which gets you out and about. And secondly, it's a really easy way to meet people. Everyone talks to you when you've got a dog.'

It's true -- so far, Sadie hasn't met a person she hasn't liked!
