POST # 592

You just never know exactly what you may come across while out for a daily walk with Dora-dog. We came across this sign the other day, and it made me chuckle, so I thought that I would include it in today's post. The squirrels were nowhere to be seen, but if they had been around, Dora-dog would most certainly have let me know about it. She loves to chase the squirrels, but so far has never managed to catch one.
Unless it's raining hard, a daily walk is part of the routine while I am here. Sometimes it's just me and Dora, and at other times, the three of us head out on our journey to various places around the local neighbourhood, or to a dog park so that Dora-dog can hang out with some of her four-legged friends.
The other day, a neighbour called, to tell us that she was taking her dog Sully for a walk, and so we met up and the three humans and Sully and Dora-dog began our journey to the marina and back. The two dogs know one another, so they were happy to have the chance to hang out together for a while. I had the pleasure of taking Sully and Benson for a stroll almost three years ago, and so I wrote about that at the time. Here is a link to that post.
Sadly, Benson is no longer with us, but the other two seemed to enjoy their walk in spite of their buddy not being with the two of them.
Eventually, Sully headed home with his owner, and we continued on our way back home as well. Dora-dog appears to be happy that she is back home, but she's probably thinking about the wonderful time that she has just spent with her buddy, Sully, and perhaps she's looking forward to another journey with her four-legged friend, sometime in the future.
A daily walk is a good thing for all of us to partake in, but it is certainly more enjoyable, if the walk can be shared with four-legged friends such as Sully and Dora-dog.
grateful for every breath,
