Max has fallen in love. Our co-workers Susan and Clayton have a Schnauzer named Angel. After work they pile into their golf cart and take Angel for a run or play time along the river. They invited us to join them the other afternoon, and we got into our golf cart and did the same. Max had never been off the leash and outside since he joined our family. He and Angel ran and ran and played and finally dropped to the grass exhausted. Neither tried to run away. Both came when called. What heaven. Max looked at Angel as if she were indeed the real thing.
We went down after dinner to see how he would do a second time. We took a ball to chase and several treats to get him to return to us if needed. Angel had gone before we got there, and it was good but NOT quite the same for Max. He ran and played and chased the ball and came when we called, but I am sure he missed Angel. Maybe tonight we can try again. Happy travels.
