my buddy zelda

While Baxter rests for a full day of barking tomorrow, I thought I would write the post he promised on his new buddy Zelda, a five month old mini black and tan longhair that showed up with her mom and dad at last weekend's playtime.

Zelda is a cutie pie who held her ground for the first few minutes she came into the park. Lily and Marshall were the first to greet her, running up to her at the far end of the park and giving her a raucous welcome. After Baxter and all the other noses in the park caught up with her, she soon needed a break from all the wet poking and prodding. Thankfully, Apollo came into the ring and drew all the playmates into his tornado, giving Zelda the opportunity to acquire bliss at the feet of any human willing to give her a tummy rub, which was practically everybody.



Zelda may not have gotten the hang of playing with her homies yet, but I am certain she's hooked to doxie playtime thanks to all that tummy rubbing!
