Sep 13, 2011: Dogs, dogs, dogs

Yesterday Thurmon and I spent quite a bit of time in the hydro corridor, hanging out, which led to meeting three other dogs that Thurmon got to play with off-leash. He had a fantastic time, running about and sniffing. He's really been getting overexcited when meeting dogs on-leash while walking on the sidewalks, and we were worried that this would carry over to his off-leash encounters. But it all went quite smoothly yesterday. The first two dogs were smaller than him, and there was lots of active running about. The third dog was a husky. It was fascinating to see the similarity between them - upright ears and curly tail - but much larger!

Speaking of curly tails, we can see that Thurmon's has become much curlier in the last week or so, forming a complete circle most of the time. It bobs about so much more noticeably now when he wags it in happiness.
