Lady has never been big on dog parks. Pres & I used to take her to the Westminster Off-Leash Dog Park in Venice when she was younger, but we quickly learned that Lady much preferred to socialize with (beg from?) people than play with other dogs. So we stopped taking her and snuck her onto the beach in the Marina instead.
Well, Kira, Lady & I needed to get out of the house because Arminda was cleaning and I got the feeling the three of us were in her way (we stayed in the nursery all morning; she had to go in there eventually, though). So, I picked up a Hawaiian Grilled Chicken Salad for lunch and headed to the Santa Monica Airport Park. We parked the stroller at a bench, and I proceeded to eat my salad while Kira napped in her stroller and Lady...well, you know Lady...she begged for my salad.
There was a pack of dogs rough-housing, and a few dogs were chasing after tennis balls. One tennis ball landed near us, and Lady ventured a few steps away from us to sniff that dog. Another dog came over and sniffed the stroller...and then my salad, so of course Lady growled at that dog and scared it off. Yep, that was the extent of Lady's interaction with the other dogs in the park.
But just look at her smile. So what if she doesn't play with the other dogs? She sure seems happy to be at the park!
