Sunday Sept 22, 2024 Vist Bray Park

 

 the most thankful for Sunday Park Walk was the lady who came out of the rest room you see above left. She walked straight towards me with a big grin on her face, she was tiny and weighed less than me. She bent over an hugged my head, then she hugged my body, then she talked to me and kissed my face and scratched my ears. She and Mama yammered on and on while I had the best hugs I ever got from a stranger. She told Mama she came down from NY and could not move her bulldog with her because he was to old to survived the trip. Mama told her about the shelter that has so many older dogs that need adoptive parents, she said she would look on line.  twice she started to go to her car and came back for more hugs.. We THINK she might have been a dog lover... 

2nd Thankful was from our early morning walk Saturday. We saw a 3 month old black lab puppy trotting beside his daddy, coming our way. we saw him twice in the last 4 weeks. Mama said to the man he sure is growing fast, and he is really walking so much better. You see the first time we saw him he looked like a ball with a leash and was bouncing up and down and pulling and well, acting like Da Phenny. ha ha

This time he was a good dog like me. the man said he is perfect on leash but the  minute the leash comes off he goes crazy!  More yammering between Mama and the Man. He said you have a very handsome old dog, I love his face... Then he said my 14 year old dog died a month ago. He was a street dog, we got him from the streets and he looked so much like your dog. Can i show you his picture?

He picked up the puppy and walked close and touched my nose and I nosed the puppy nose and Mama said I don't believe it when he held up his phone because for some reason the man had a photo of ME in his phone and I was sleeping on a sofa but it was not my sofa.

Mama here, that dog he found in the street was almost identical to Beau. The face markings exactly the same. We are thankful he saves rescue dogs and we got to meet the new puppy. He got a lab puppy because he moved across the street from his grandchildren and wanted one for them.
