Puppy Party!

Last Saturday we went to a party to celebrate the 1-year birthday of Levi's litter along with the 3-year-old birthday of his half-siblings.  All of Levi's litter were there along with two of his half brothers from Sport's first litter.  It was at Tony La Russa's Animal Rescue Foundation in Walnut Creek in a big grassy outdoor training field complete with agility equipment and a little wading pool.  The dogs had a blast playing and chasing each other.  Levi was obsessed with his sisters and hardly played with the boys at all, he just wanted to chase the girls around.

We played a bunch of fun games, some of which Levi was really bad at (bobbing for hot dogs) and some he was really good at (ring around the puppy).  It was nice getting to see all of the other puppy owners again and to meet a few that I hadn't met yet.  I wish we could all get together more often but I can't imagine how hard that would be to try to organize every time.

We got to play with some of the agility equipment too and watch the seasoned pros like Sport, Jackson, and River show the younger guys how it is done.

It was such a fun day, and I loved watching how much fun all the dogs had while playing. 

Happy Birthday to the Artisan Beer Litter and the Famous Jingles Litter!
