Water Fountains & Hide and Seek

September 16th, 2009

Yesterday was an amazing day! I woke up feeling groggy and tired but my mom was full of energy of some odd reason. She took a fast shower while I snoozed on the bath mat. She threw clothes on and grabbed my harness. I wanted to yell, “Hello mom, I am still sleeping..relax!” but I didn’t. Instead I decided to hide under the bed. She can’t get me when I am under there haha!!

After a little while she pretended to leave and actually fooled me. She yelled good bye and walked to the front door. She opened and closed the door but never left, she even turned out the lights! I ran to the front door soo fast and that was when she almost got me BUT I am a fast little guy. We ended up playing hide and seek for an hour before she caught me and we went outside. I had a blast playing hide and seek…not sure if she did!

We went to the Commons for a long time. My hair is still very shaggy (getting groomed Friday at Posh Dog Boutique) which means I get hot quickly. Mom forgot to bring my water bottle and I was thirsty. The problem was I didn’t want to go home yet! I had met a dog named Hamlet and we had just finished playing when my mom started leading me towards home. I threw myself on the ground and refused to walk. This is what I do when I am too hot to walk or I don’t want to leave the park. I was feeling a little of both this time.

My mom usually picks me up and carries me until I am ready to walk/cooperate. This time she gave in and sat down with me. I was shocked and didn’t know what to do. We stayed there for a little while and then I got up and we proceeded to walk through the whole park. Just as we had walked past the Swan Boats my mom picked me up and carried me to this weird stone thing. I had no clue what was going on and all I wanted to do was go back to chasing the geece. She balanced me on her knee and hit some weird silver round thing that made the stone sculpture shoot out water. It was amazing. At first I got water in my ear and couldn’t figure out how to drink the water from this magical invention. After a little while I figured it out! It was amazing. My mom told me later that it was a water fountain. What a great idea!! I was able stay at the park longer and meet other dogs thanks to this “water fountain”.

Now if you go to the Public Gardens a lot like myself you must make sure to go around the whole park so you can enjoy this so called water fountain. You won’t regret it!! I promise!!

Not sure what my plans are today but you know I will keep you all informed! What are you plans today?
