Landfill adventures

Skipper and I go out twice most days and circle the landfill behind the
house. He has lots of opportunity to stretch his legs, investigate "stuff",
and play with other dogs. There's a pretty good size community of people
who walk their dogs there daily.

There are lots of interesting props too, large puddles when it's been
raining, (Mud!), rocks and bleachers and cement blocks for climbing on, old
chunks of pipe to run through, and of course sticks, like this surveyor's
stake that he's found. He didn't really pull it up. Someone else had done
that before he found it, who knows where it really belonged.

Probably they didn't want that survey stake there anyway!

Playing with Joanne

Skipper and Joanne from next door spent a good half-hour today running in
circles around the yard. Joanne ended up happy because Skipper got tired
enough to lie down and let her pet him. Skipper was happy because he
convinced someone to run around with him for a half hour.

New Blog

Ok,
Skipper turned 8 months last week.
The grass in the landfill is up to my chest now. He loves to run through it, but there are no pictures, because all you can see is the grass waving, with an occasional view of his head when he jumps up to see where he is. I did take some pictures of him last week though. Let's see if this works.

Well, it doesn't seem to just yet. I'm off to a meeting
