We didn’t have any big plans for Sunday so we thought it would be a good day to take a drive and go to the big dog park in Jacksonville and let the boys and little Luna run around. This was Luna’s first trip to the park so we were curious to see how she would do in such a huge park with so many dogs.
Luna handled it like everything else that has been thrown her way the past two weeks since we have adopted her. PERFECTLY! She was the perfect little lady playing with many of the other pugs and small dogs in the park. The only tip-off that this was her first visit to the park, was that she fell into the pond in the small dog section.
The small dog section of the park has a small pond at one end where dogs can cool off. Luna thought of the pond more like a puddle and when she was chasing Benjamin & Henry around the pond she thought she would get a leg up by cutting through the middle of the “puddle”. Well to her surprise the “puddle” was a little bit deeper than she thought. All in all, she handled it well. She quickly swam to the edge and shook herself off. Surprisingly, she wasn’t phased by any of it.
We had towels in the car, so we got her dry and put one of Henry’s old sweaters on her to help keep her warm for the rest of the trip.
The boys were up to their usually antics. Running around the sand pile, going through the tunnels and chasing other dogs at the park. They did a good job looking after their little sister and making sure she didn’t stray too far from the pack.

It has been very chilly here lately and we are in the midst of a snow storm. The heavy snow is yet to come, so we decided to head out and play while there was just a dusting on the ground.
The boys both had their coats on and were running around like mad stopping to gobble up snow along the way. They kept trying to shake off the cold and any snow that may have gotten on their coats. Luckily, I was able to snap a picture of Benjamin as he was giving himself a good shake!
If the boys are up to it, we may try to venture out later after there has been some accumulation. If we do, I will be sure to post some more pics.

After his walk this morning, Benjamin settled down for a nice nap on the couch. He still has his hoodie on from his walk so he is toasty warm.

It was a chilly 31 degrees when we headed out for our morning walk which meant it was time to break out the boys’ winter jackets. Ben’s favorite is his red hooded sweatshirt and Henry loves his leather jacket.
Ben has a really short and thin coat of fur so he gets cold really easily. Henry, on the other hand, has a very thick coat and he handles the cold much better. But in the morning, it is hard to get Henry out from under the covers, so he likes to wear his jacket because there is nothing worse than getting out of a warm bed to go outside to brave the cold weather. Trust me, I know!

I was just going through my pictures searching for some good shots to use for this year’s Christmas cards when I came across pictures of Benjamin & Henry in their Christmas costumes from last year.
Benjamin is Santa and Henry is the reindeer. The picture of Henry always makes me laugh because he looks a little bit like Kenny from South Park in that shot.
Happy Holidays everyone!
