Dog parks are awesome in California! This week, I took our dog Tukker to exercise and play off-leash at a nearby dog park. Tukker is as much a part of our family as Paige and Taylor - heck she's like a 3rd child really - but too often, Tukker plays second fiddle to the twins.
Now, call me crazy, but I gotta' tell you I REALLY LOVED taking Tukker to the dog park - just she and I - while the twins were at preschool. For the first time in a long time, I watched Tukker enjoy a little canine companionship and play. I watched her lounge out in the puppy pools, splash in the mud puddles, run through the sprinklers and I loved every moment of it! Tukker even met 2 other puppies that day, believe it or not, named Tukker too!
The look of a tired, content puppy after much play and splashing in the pools!
What can I say...Tukker loves water!
The 3 Tukkers - Yes, all 3 of us, complete strangers, discovered that each of our dogs were named Tukker. Every time one of us would call our dog, all 3 would come running! It was very cute. We decided to get a picture of the 3 Tukkers together at their puppy play-date at the park.
