PLAY DATE LITTLE MOUNTAIN, QLD. SATURDAY 12 NOVEMBER
As posted by Daniela, owner of Millie:
Hi Everyone,
Our GP Play date went really well yesterday, and we were very proud of all of our fur kids 
David had suggested Little Mountain Common Off Leash Dog Park (Caloundra), for the venue, and it was a lovely venue
as you’ll see from the photos in the Album “Playdate Nov 2011″.
We all arrived around 10:30am on Saturday. Doreen with Tula and Koko, David with Jackson and Jarrah, and me with Millie.
Right from the start, all of them got on amazingly well together. They played well, and all happily drank from the same (Millie’s) water bowl.
They even welcomed “Winston”, a black Labrador pup who was the only other dog in the park, into the pack, and he was also allowed to drink out of that water bowl.
The dogs all did their own checking out and inspection of the park, and then they were hurtling from one end of the park to the other in a blur of red and black and tan. Then they stopped and watched Jackson try out the agility equipment – just for the fun of it, while Millie contented herself by lying in the shade under the slide.
They kept running off to play, or inspect another area, and then each of them would come back to their own pack leader, just to make sure we were still there
Millie was totally full on, as only a GP puppy can be, and kept up with the bigger kids all morning. She did get a bit too “full on” at one stage towards the end of the morning, but a sharp admonishment from her Aunty Tula, had her doing an Academy Award performance of an “injured dog” running, Yip Yipping all the way back to “Mum”. A few minutes later, and she was happily playing with Tula and Koko again. Such an actress!
We also had two visitors turn up from Brisbane. Wilma – a lady who wished to meet and greet the breed, and her daughter who came along for the company.
They loved them, and enjoyed watching their funny antics. Koko decided to up the affectionate stakes, and put her head on Wilma’s lap for a bit of bonding/stroking time.
Finally, after about two hours, we decided to call it a day. It was a beautifully fine day, but the temperature was warming up quickly, and all around us we had panting, happy dogs.
Millie curled up on the front seat of the car, and was asleep before we even left the car park She stayed like that until we arrived home an hour or so later, and then wanted to go back to sleep on her “day bed”. She also wanted to go to bed last night quite a bit earlier than usual. Today she is her normal very
bright and happy little self again.
Doreen, David and I thought the Play date was a great success, and we’ll repeat it again early in the new year.
Hopefully Maureen and Kaiser will be able to come next time too.
We took heaps of photos.
We had a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing time
Daniela
