Here is a short video of dogs playing in my yard. Thankfully they don't play this hard all the time, but this YEE HA! play is not unusual either. The players are -
Beck-leader of the band, Finney-all in, Valli- foster dog who was adopted Friday, and our new foster dog Delilah (DD) who actually did really well. DD spent some time fostered at Camp Bow Wow and she is a pretty great player once she knows the dogs. Camp Bow Wow was to much for her after a few weeks and she landed here to destress a bit.
Mission accomplished.
You can just skip over to about the 1 minute mark to see "the move" and why I posted this. Feel free to console me that my dog will in deed be ok and that he won't get hurt playing and acting the fool.
Things like "Nancy he is so wiry and fit that he can do contorsions like that without getting hurt"
and "He's a dog, get over it" are appreciated. I am worried he will hurt himself. By the way, I have seen Beck run 2x as fast as he is in this video.
My new dog could use a large dose of some common sense and a bit of time to grow a brain, but I love his overall approach to life. If he stays sound, he will be a force.
Wouldn't you like to have a fraction of this energy and joi de vie?
