Still barfing.

Barfing seems to have calmed down. Sound asleep ATM.

Returned to the house soaking wet and muddy, and been barfing up pond scum for the last three hours....Barfing seems to have calmed down. Sound asleep ATM.

Blue-green algae ain’t good for dogs and people.
Be careful out there SBR and Moria.

I don't disagree with your approach but it is worth pointing out that every dog is different. Moira, for example, has super-high prey drive. Tonight on our local dog walk, despite scanning the area for deer on the approach, one apparently appeared on the way back when we were playing "fetch the ball" off-leash. She dropped the ball and was gone like a shot, despite my calling. I trekked after her, calling and clapping, then went back to the house for better footwear than Crocs, a bug jacket and the squeeker. An hour later, with me deep in the bush on an ATV trail, she found me, which was great. Returned to the house soaking wet and muddy, and been barfing up pond scum for the last three hours. Good times. The squeeker is key.

Doc is that way too. He's excellent off leash until he sees something he wants to chase down and kill...lol woodchucks are his specialty. If I see the prey first I can distract him and all is good.

Sorry Moira got sick, but I guess that's being part of a silly dog. Glad she's better!
I think Doc and Moira would have a blast together!

Our county govt does some cool stuff.

The dog park was cheap to build and is used from dawn until dark all year long. Great for dogs to socialize.

Nice looking dog park! Ours consists of a low fence around grassy area with some trees and a lot of mud holes. If they spent as much money on the dog park (used year-round, every day) as they did on the new pickleball courts (used 5 months of the year, though busy every day), it would be much much awesomer.

No barfing any more. We are celebrating the the second Gotcha Day and theoretical third birthday of this one:

It wasn’t him, but a relative. He’s learning the ropes.

His Momma’s getting spayed today. We don’t need him knocking her up...
Gonna make rearrangements on where the dogs stay so Momma can have a quiet place for R&R.
