Adventure Pack

Rucksack, Sputnik, and Mamacita all sniffed around in the brush by the picnic tables at the beginning of the Royal Arch. They probably smelled the crumbs of picnics past and were hoping to find some morsels for themselves. While they sniffed, Coco found herself a stick to chew on. Mamacita interrupted her pursuit to check out Coco and her prize, but Rucksack and Sputnik kept their noses to the ground.

Variety Pack

Colby, Cooper, and Coco were all feeling pretty lively at the park this afternoon. The three of them ran around together a bit as we made our way around the perimeter of the park, while Thompson and Stella sniffed around as they ambled along. Colby got a bit nasty with one dog who came over to say hello to her, so I put a leash on her and we headed to the other end of the park until that dog left a little later. Then, Colby found a German Wirehaired Pointer who was full of energy and the two of them went for a good, long sprint together. Cooper got a bit too into a Golden Retriever and mounted her a few times, which resulted in Coco barking at him and then, in turn, at the Golden Retriever's guardian when he pulled Cooper off. It seems Cooper has a penchant for mounting and Coco's reaction isn't entirely helpful, so I'll be keeping a close eye on him to avoid that scenario in the future.
