Week One. Since Erica passed Millie has been hanging with her Auntie Kira and Mia has been boarding at K9 University. We wanted to be able to spend some time with Mia and allow her to spend some time with her sister Millie. Three of us, all friends of Erica, have Mondays off so we decided to plan an outing. It was a beautiful day so we decided to pick up the girls and head to the lake at 31st street - lots of parking and not as much commotion as the northside.
Mia and Aga and I got there first and hung out waiting for Millie and Sharyn. Several kids were playing along the lakefront and were very interested in Mia, she was relaxed and curious and very well-behaved.
Sharyn brought Millie and they had a happy reunion. Sharyn thought to bring long leashes and we headed off walking the lakefront in the sun. The girls had a glorious time smelling and rolling in the goose poop. We had a good time trying to keep them from becoming a tangled mess.
Several times Mia would look back at us and stop and we realized that she wanted to stop and have some loving. So we braved the goose poop infested grass and just relaxed. Well, we relaxed. Mia's sister Millie is a "lets get this walk done" kind of girl so we soon headed back to the cars.
Next stop was for ice cream at Scoops in Bridgeport. Everyone had a cone, including Mia who swallowed hers almost whole, and since Millie only wanted a few licks Mia finished hers off as well. Passersby enjoyed watching the girls enjoy their cones. Both were well behaved with people passing by, even a whole class of very young children in uniform with their teachers.
Two pitties licking ice cream cones - a good image for them to take home with them I think.
Last stop we dropped off Mia at her digs at K9 University with a care package of Dingo bones, a new bed and some new food. We kissed her good bye and told her we would see her next week. It was a good day.
