Bauer's First Day at the Dog Park

May 20, 2007

Yesterday, on my first weekend free all Spring, Ashley and I decided to take the dogs to the dog park! Bayden deserved some time to run around and perk up since he's been dealing with this new puppy getting all the attention. He's been real good though. And Bauer needs to get socialized.

Bauer did real well! He, of course, was the main attraction — even over the huge great dane out there. But he played real well with all the other dogs, even the dane! He wasn't scared one bit.

When he plays, he gets this little Tasmanian Devil snarl that's pretty funny. But we're trying to make sure his play never turns into anything serious. We're trying to make sure he knows that Bayden is his older, dominant brother. Bayden has a tendency to be a big push-over since he's so sweet and gentle with little dogs, but we don't want the puppy to think he can push him around — taking his "chew-eez" and toys and stuff. We want to keep him in his place without allowing him to be aggressive. Perhaps due to a little fear that he might assume some natural pitbull tendencies.
