Playdate

Since I did not have work on Monday (Presidents' Day) Luna and I decided to visit Mary Pat and her three girls, Opal, Emerald and Tanzanite.  These are the girls who inspired Luna to get up and move while we were away for Christmas.  We had not seen them since Christmas so we were due for some catching up.

We took the dogs for about 1.5 mile walk along the Delaware river.  It was obvious that Luna was enjoying her day out with her fellow greys.  She was so excited for the walk that she was really pulling me at the start. Towards the end of the walk she was obviously tired as her limp was becoming more noticeable.

When we returned to Mary Pat's house everyone received treats and bones to chew while we had homemade blueberry muffins and tea.  Luna (I'm sorry to say) was not an ideal house guest.  She monopolized one of the bones, took over one of the dog beds, and was pretty pushy about getting a piece of muffin.  In fact, she started barking when we refused to give her some of the muffin.  Spoiled much?

It was very nice to spend time with someone who loves greyhounds as much as me and watch Luna interact with the girls.  I'm sure we will visit again soon and hopefully Luna will have some better manners next time. :-)

Sounds like a spoiled only child. Think she wants a brother or sister to share with? :)
