Playdate for Ella

Since Polka Dot died last month, Ella has been missing having other dogs around. My friend Kelly and I have been trying to meet up weekly at our local dog park so Ella can play with her dog friends Lily and Bandit.

Ella pretty much runs full speed the entire hour we are at the dog park. If she can find a dog to chase her, she is in heaven but if not, she will still run her guts out regardless.

Bandit was trying to get Lily, who had snow stuck in her pads, up and moving with some backup from Ella. As usual, Ella is approaching the problem with maybe a tad more gusto than it actually requires.

A brief pause from running and attempting to kiss all the humans to pose for me.

After a trip to the dog park, Ella pretty much spends the rest of the day like this. She has two speeds, full blast and asleep, and not much else in between.
