Dog Festival

After the Kite Festival (and a nap and a snack), we headed back out to the Dog Bowl.  It was basically a dog free-for-all held on the field of the Cotton Bowl.  I decided not to Ashley - a hard decision.  But it would have been too much excitement & stimulation, not to mention to much running around for her.  It was almost too much stimulation for me. 




We saw dogs of all shapes and sizes - lots of pretty dogs and lots that were, well, not-so-pretty.  Luis, true to his style, was very interested in petting (and hugging and kissing) many of the dogs.  He would get a bit overwhelmed when a pack of dogs would run by too close, on their way to a wading pool, a tennis ball or simply chasing the dog in front of them.  And true to my style, I hunted out all of the Aussies (and Border Collies).
Luis seemed to particularly like this little doggie.  It took a while for the dog to warm up to Luis - but eventually he sat in Luis's lap for several minutes and even gave Luis a sweet kiss.
