doggie water fountain

Can you believe this cool water fountain! The City of Cambridge installed this one recently at Fresh Pond. Skippy is ready for a cool drink! Looks like the water is not on yet though. We'll definitely come back later.

Does your town care for its dogs so well? Unfortunately there's nothing quite like this in our town of Belmont.... Oh well. Cambridge is right next door.

muddy (happy) dog

... and why is it that Skippy gets a bath so often? I remember now. There's something about the spring that is very very muddy. Today Skippy swam in the lake, then played ball in the dirt. Then he went home and had a bath and jumped up and bed and slept like a puppy.

Skippy runs

I love the way Skippy can run at full speed and still squeak his toy the whole time!

what a day!

Spring in New England is beautiful. This is Callahan State Park in Framingham, MA. Skippy had fun running and swimming and looking at wildlife. He thought it was pretty nice.
