Mud Puppy

Rocco is now in a young adult dog stage and decided to test boundaries and limitations. He is now back to being on a long lead at all times until he re-establishes better understandings of his boundaries.  He doesn't really seem to care.

In our neck of the woods it was in the 60's today. Although it was wonderful, its also unusual weather for January in Michigan. The temperature rise caused the snow to melt and our back yard is now full of mud. The dogs liked it.

This is Duke

Duke is a good dog!

We live in a lovely duplex with a lovely yard.Though it is currently full of mud.

There is a large fenced in garden that the dogs often run around. We refer to it as "the track".

They have a great time running around The Track, however the corners are kick-offs for their speed and often are torn up and muddy. And so are our dogs.

Here is an action shot.

At one point Rocco laid down on his belly in the mud and stretched out in it. No big deal, not like our house is clean anyway :)

  

He was towelled off when we went inside. This was mostly pointless, but he was a very good dog non the less.
