City Pittie Parade

As I don't drive, Billy and I are usually constrained to walks around our neighborhood. We miss a lot of Chicago Sociabulls walks as a result so I sneaked off downtown without him this weekend to join a walk.

Walking along the lakefront

We started off at Museum Campus and walked north along the lake shore before taking a water break.

Some of the pups took the opportunity to sneak a good roll in the dirt or engage in some serious stick-deathing.

After a quick break we swung westward towards Michigan Avenue.

It was so fun seeing everybody's reactions to our impromptu parade.

All twenty-eight were amazing ambassadors for the power of responsible dog ownership. I was so impressed by how well-behaved our pack was, even with all the different idiosyncrasies of the dogs.

It was certainly a different experience for me to go to a walk without Mr Excita-Bill, and we have much to live up to on our next Sociabulls walk. We've done a lot of work recently so fingers crossed some of that pays off!

Hi!!!!
A Sociabulls dog is a happy dog!

  1. I really enjoyed my dog-less walk as well when I did it. It lets you observe the other dogs much more than you're able to when you're focused on your pup. And, most importantly, you can pet them! It's always so hard to not get close to all the other cuties when I have one of mine with me, since they're not allowed to get close.
