Dog Park

July 28th, 2008 by Kristin Sample

I wish my dog knew how to play fetch. Thatcher just runs after the ball then brings it back and hoards it. The dog park we go to is full of tennis balls because of the adjacent courts. So, I throw a ball, she tears after it, then trots back and lays in the shade. She kind of misses the point. I even show her when there are labs at the park–see, that’s what you do. you get it and then I throw it again.

    Chomper is part Retriever and he does the same thing. I just think dogs are being bread lazy…not unlike their human counterparts!
