Fitbitting with "Man's Best Friend" (upload dog photos here)

ANSWERED

 

We live in "Steinbeck country" (Salinas Valley/Monterey County), named after the famous author John Steinbeck. And just as Steinbeck documented his journeys with his beloved dog in "Travels with Charlie", I'm going to photojournal in this thread my "Travels with Melody".

 

A lot has changed in Salinas since the days of Steinbeck. But some things haven't changed that much. Today we visited the childhood home of Steinbeck, which has been restored to its original beauty.

Down the street from the Steinbeck House is the Steinbeck Public Library, with a bronze statue of the author at the front entrance. I don't think Melody's ever seen a statue before. At first she was puzzled that he didn't greet her - or even flinch one little bit.DSC_0047 resize.jpg

 

Then she surprised me and became downright ornery!

So I took her back to to dog training school for some proper obedience training. Of course, she passed with flying colors.

This is Bauer, a two-year-old Australian Shepherd, who is my walking and geo-caching buddy. All of these locations are in the heart of the Dallas metroplex yet feels like the backwoods. Hopefully other Fitbitters are taking advantage of their local parks and nature preserves.

After losing my wonderful boy Merlin in September, we've added a new canine member to the family!  So far she's been a great walking buddy-she loves to carry the leash in her mouth, and so far she doesn't chew on it (probably the ONLY thing that she hasn't tried to eat), so I think we're good.  She's only 11ish weeks now-can't wait to see if she grows into those feet and ears!I really loved those shoes....I really loved those shoes....

Bauer is a good-looking Aussie, @Marcy.  Jayhawk is pretty good at finding things I hide from him, but he can't use a GPS, so I guess Bauer's got him beat there.  Smiley Very Happy
