Pugs, parks and ponds

It was a lovely evening tonight so we decided it was a great opportunity to take our pugs, Molly Sue Nesbitt and Michaelangelo (aka Mikey), to the park.  Mol has a bunch of bug bites from her weekend adventures so we thought it'd be nice to go somewhere with a beach.  Shubie Park offleash beach area sounded like it fit the bill. 

So we piled into the car -  Molly, Mikey, Dan and I.  We came aimed with my trusty pink camera, treats, a towel and lots of bags.  Our walk into the park was uneventful, so you really don't want to hear about that but what you will want to know is that when we arrived at the beach there were so many big dogs Mikey cowered behind Dan and may, or may not, have peed a little.  I'm not talking big like black labs, I'm talking big like there was a Newfoundland Dog, a Bernese and 2 Saint Bernards.  BIG.  Molly was unfazed by these big dogs.  We took off their harnesses and the next thing you know she's chasing them around and running through the water.

OHMYGOD I FOUND THE WATERRRRR!!!!

Now where, you might ask, is Mikey?  Well kids, Mikey doesn't believe in getting wet.  Infact, when it is wet outside Mikey will walk around picking up his paws and shaking the water off them.  He dislikes getting wet so much that he refused to even put a paw in the water.  This is him looking unimpressed as I try to snap his picture...

Go away, Mom.

So with Mikey standing on the edge of the lake, refusing to swim and refusing to play with any other dogs Molly dove in and started swimming, chasing other dogs and trying to steal balls from oblivious beach-goers. After an hour Molly was done and ready to head home.  She was tired and wet but VERY happy...

How was your evening?
