Best Dog Week Ever

Scout and Chloe have had quite a week! Tuesday night, we went to Dog Days at the Metrodome. Dogs were allowed to run around off-leash around the cemented part of the Dome. They had so much fun! Tomkin said he had never seen so many different kinds of dogs in one place. Scout and Chloe enjoyed playing with each other and with new friends, and Scout liked checking out the bathrooms (and running off...and trying to steal dog treats from vendors...). I learned about the event from Ali at Sidewalk Dog, a cool local blog that highlights pet-friendly businesses and events. She was at one of the vendor tables at the event, so I got to meet her in person, which was fun. After an hour or so of romping and prancing around, Scout and Chloe were pooped. But then on Wednesday they got to go to the dog park with Tomkin and his friend Tracy (and Tracy's rottweiler, Wilbur). And if that wasn't enough, today was Watson Day! Now every Thursday, Jim & Roxanne's chocolate lab, Watson, comes over and spends the day with us. The dogs love having him here, and so do we! In other dog news, my mom reports that their new dog, still known as Cinderella (or "Cindy") but soon to have a new name, has settled in nicely, is very sweet and cuddly, and is a wonderful addition to the family.
