I love walking Vinnie, he is such a good-natured dog. At three years old he is in his prime and oh boy can he run fast! He’s so strong and wiry. Mainly he runs after his ball, and sometimes to greet another dog. He is so enthusiastic and friendly that it doesn’t cross his mind that the other dog might not be just as excited to see him. And for the most part they are pleased to see him, especially larger dogs of his own size, and much dancing and chasing and roly poly ensues! Especially with his friend Hudson, a golden Labrador. We usually walk through Holmhills Park, visit the ponds to have a look at the ducks, and then cross the road into Canbuslang Park for more fun and frolics. Vinnie loves a dog treat and I have to ration these out during our walk or he would eat them all at once. He is shameless about begging other dog owners for treats, but if I give a treat to another dog (with the owner’s permission of course) Vinnie tries to grab it! Our walk takes between an hour and an hour and a half, and when we get back to his house he is so good about holding up each paw in turn so that I can clean the mud off them. He even has his own teddy which he takes to his dog bed with them. Vinnie is such a sweet boy.
