We took Roxy to the KCC dog park on Sunday and ... let's say, she was feeling less than comfortable there. (She's very much a stay-at-home, indoors in the cool tiled bathroom type of dog. Not very active at all.)
I had hoped she eventually socialize with the others there, but it didn't quite happen. She stuck around KS' side and would venture over to see me every-now-and-again while I was sketching. I guess she got some exercise (she's kinda overweight....) but I think she was overly-excited and over-heating. Refusing to drink the water, play in the sprinklers or do much else than be a hyperventilating lump in the grass, we took her back home for a much needed bath.
Thankfully, we got this photo (and a few others) out of the experience. XD
For those who haven't caught it at the nemu blog, here's one of the sketch pages from the time we were there:

She really needs a trim and a diet. XD
Your sketches are so cleannnn! They seem to capture her attitude perfectly XD
Roxy's a good dog - really smart... sometimes too smart. XD; But she really doesn't like strangers. It took about 3 years to get her to be "okay" with me. ^^;
Keoni helps a little though, he is a little booger and jumps on her etc. and she even is excited to see him and plays with him (mostly she bites his tail or chases him hehe). But other dogs..still the same..it's like she knows he is family.
