Doggy Park

Taking Duke to the doggy park is probably one of my favorite things to do here so far! I love how excited he gets once he knows we are there, he pretty much drags us to the gate. It is so fun to watch him explore, play with other dogs, and just watch him interact with other people.
It is also the one place that he does not care how hot it is outside, he just plays!

On our way to the park!

Duke now loves to stick his head out the window, but we have to hold onto him because I am pretty sure he would jump out!

1st thing Duke does as soon as we take his leash off is run to the water bowls. Before he can play he has to take a drink from every bowl and there are usually at least 5 right by the water fountain. And he does this of course because the water in one bowl might taste completely different from the others. Such a goof ball!

This is one of the obstacles they have at the park for the dogs to play on. When we first started coming we had to lift Duke up onto it, but now he can jump up himself as long as he starts from where he and Joey are standing. Every once in awhile though he will try to jump up from the side and he doesn't make it and falls back. Funny to watch because he thinks he is such a big boy and you can see his confidence go down after his tumble. The other day he had his 1st boo boo, he bit his tongue all the way thru and was bleeding for awhile. 1st accident at the doggy park!

We love our Dukey Duke!
