Niles Dog Show & Drigon Park
The weekend of August 2nd Tom and Timber brought me to the Niles Dog Show and then later to Drigon Dog Park in Union City. The dog show was pretty cool overall. I got to hang out under the canopy that Diane and Eric had set up while everyone ate lunch. Then I got to walk around the dog show with Tom and Timber and look at the other dogs and their owners. Tom and Timber even got me into the agility course. I wasn't sure what to do, but it was fun running around jumping over stuff, bobbing and weaving around poles, and running through a tunnel. I would definitely do that again! The only drawback was that I had to wear a muzzle. I admit it, sometimes I get grumpy and am not the most friendly dog in the world. If I could get over my amnesia as to what happened to me before I met Tom and Timber I could probably figure out a way around that problem. As things stand now Tom and Timber are working with me and trying to get me more socialized with people. I don't have any problems with other dogs. After the dog show they decided that I needed more excitement, and they took me to the Drigon Dog Park in Union City, CA. That was an awesome place! They had lots of room for me to run around and play, and they also had a dog/owner tandem water fountain! The only drawback there was that a big dog ran into me at full speed while I was looking at something else and I yelped as he knocked the wind out of me. I guess I need to keep my wits about me. Overall it was a pretty good weekend to be a dog.
