Puppy Meet and Greet

On the Internet I found a site called Houston Meet-up. This is a service available in many cities that allows anyone with a few dollars to put out a call to others who share their interests to meet up. I saw a posting for a Dachshund group and signed up. Never heard from ayone about a meeting but another Dachshund owner e-mailed me about having her puppy and Alex having an informal get together. Sofia, the other Dachshund, is a chocolate colored wired hair sweety about 8 months old and her owner wanted her to meet other similar sized Dachshunds. Alex and the girls seemed like a good match for size and they all need more socialization. This morning we met at a lovely park in Houston called Woodland Park for about an hour of dog walking. Here a picture of Sofia (on the right) and one of Alex and Sofia.


















It went relatively well. Alex didn't seem to want to play while he was on the leash but he did not rebuff Sofia and his nose got a good work out smelling all the new smells. I hope we wil be able to meet up again... maybe at a dog park.

BTW doesn't Kelis look cute!
