Dog Games

More anthropomorphizing ... six syllables, hehe ... see, this blog is erudite as well as loquacious ;-)

Dogs are very smart. [OK, I'll stipulate that cats are smart, too, hehe]. My dogs have games they play outside. Before we got Ava & Sky, Krypto & Spikie used to play "Lion vs. Wildebeest", where Spikie was the Lion trying to catch Krypto the Wildebeest. Or "Cheetah vs. Gazelle" where Krypto the Cheetah tried to catch Spikie the Gazelle [this is a speedier game]. During the last few days, Krypto has taught Sky to play, "Runaway Sheep", where Krypto is the runaway sheep and Sky has to herd her back to the "mob". Even Ava has gotten into the fun, taking Sky the puppy on "Snipe Hunts" to the abandoned fox den colony on the hillside. Sky plays "Space Mountain" in our family room, zooming around & up & over the couches & chairs. It's a lot of fun watching them play. :-)
