My Backyard Dog Park

Tug Game I guess with 2 kids and 4 dogs I shouldn’t e surprised that my backyard becomes the local dog park.. Either all the neighbor dogs or dogs of friends usually ends up in my backyard. That or children! The other night we had my kids and a couple neighbor kids, my four dogs, a friends’ 10 month old yellow lab, a 10 week old Labradoodle and a 6 month old Boxer. And, it’s not unusual to have more than that! It’s not surprising that, with my career of observing dog behavior, that I find it interesting how my own dogs (and kids!) behave when there are friends over. One of the parts I enjoyed the most the other night was Wyatt playing with the kids – with all of the dogs in his yard to play with, he was the dog that wanted to play with the children!! I love my family!!
