So I was out taking Photon for her afternoon walk on Saturday. The afternoon walks been a little less energetic these days and I don’t know why. I heard several suggestions, ranging from the higher temperatures, maturing personality, growth spurt, or that Laura is wiping her out completely on her morning walks. (The first one is true: we are living by Cathy L’s motto that the only good puppy is a tired puppy.)

So there we are, in the leash-free Riverdale West Park, with other dog owners saying nice things about Photon, when suddenly one says, “Hey look there’s another one!”

I wandered over towards another little merle streaking down the hill, same size as Photon, and long story short, it’s Photon’s sister Cobalt (née Jolly, the little puppy who clucked like a chicken).

After that, pity the other dogs that wanted to join the fun! Once the two sisters got going, they ran and wrestled each other to the exclusion of pretty much everything else. Admittedly once, on break, they did a tag team of trying to herd a family in the park, but otherwise they were pretty darn focused on each other.

Her owner James has already blogged what happened next, blood and all, so I’ll send you over to his blog to get the skinny, and some gorgeous post-action photos of Cobalt with Photon’s blood on her.

Next time, we’re going to bring cameras to record the action!!
