Pooped puppies

We took Pete and Miles to a new dog park today. It was wonderful, by far the best dog park that we've been to in Miami. This was the Palmetto Bay Perrine-Wayside Dog Park. It is a full city block in size and has a lake and fountain the middle. The dogs can swim in the lake. The main problem w/ most Miami dog parks is that they are WAY too small - so the dogs don't really have much to do in there. That's bad if there are dogs that don't really get along well with one another. This one is so spacoius and has so many different areas for them to play in that they just run and play all over.

This was Miles' first trip to the dog park. He had a blast. He played with other dogs, he swam, he jumped off a 4-foot tall pile of rocks (scaring everyone). This was Pete's frist trip in a long whle. He has a history of not playing well with others either due to growling or humping. But he didn't do either (much) today. We think that Miles is helping him to be more sociable with other dogs.

They came home absolutely filthy and tired. So now I'm tired from bathing them both, but we're all happy. That's good.
