The reason I call her Marcybutt

Cause that's what I usually see of her when she's focused on something


She's too damn smart for her own good. Every time I come up with a new way to trick her into getting within reach so I can grab her when it's time to leave the park, it only works once.

so I am just talking out of my ass....but aren't you supposed to train them to come when called? Sorry, I just had to say that....I know for a fact that I could never have control over a dog.

Cute dog.....or at least it looks like it from that angle.

she gets oblivious to everything else. Playing keep away then becomes a game.

Weird thing is, she only acts that way at Red Bud Isle Park, she doesn't do it at home or the other dog park I take her to.

There must be something in the air there. Causes the playful, independent spirit to come out.

She looks to be in great shape. I wouldn't want to play the "catch me if you can" game with her.....she would always win.
