I could not stand it anymore. I played hookie from work and took Gracie to the city park for a walk. It was her first time walking away from home. This is the park where I usually walk, but could not today due to a broken foot! We just kind of strolled along, stopping now and then to sit on a bench in the shade. She was the only "dog" there at the time. She really does not think she is a dog! The park has a big water fountain with water falls and ducks, lots of walking paths and lots of grass. I kept her off the grass just because she has not had all of her shots. That little squirt strutted almost all the way around the park, stopping and visiting with every person she saw. She was so excited, and had such a great time! She loves people, all people. Of course, everyone fell in love with her. I was a bit offended by the number of people who stopped to pet her without asking, but at least no one tried to pick her up. After that, I took her in with me to get my mail (a U.P.S. store). I had her in her Juicy bag, with her little head sticking out. Not a peep out of her and no one was aware she was even there. Then we got home, and she pigged out on a new pig ear and some Merrick's for dinner. She is now crashed with a big smile on her face. I just had to share a very fun day!
