Perspectives of a Canadian in the Old/Deep/New/Geographic South: This is where I ramble on about nothing in particular and post a few nice pictures.
It’s taken a few months, but Barkley has finally been adopted and is heading off with a nice couple to his new home in West Virginia.
I had planned on taking a bit of a break before taking on a new foster, but it looks like I’ll be taking on Sazy instead.
Barkley has been discovering that it’s a lot of fun at the dog park, especially when there are other dogs to play tug with and go chasing after (or be chased by)
A few picture of Barkley in action at the dog park.

Barkley made his first trip to the dog park today. We stayed there for a couple of hours and aside from the first few minutes of greeting and sniffing, he was pretty much non-stop running the entire time.
If he wasn’t chasing down (or being chased) by one of the boxers, he was wandering around exploring, wrestling or playing with the other dogs. Didn’t get to test out his retrieving instinct because he was too busy having fun with the other dogs to notice the ball.
It was definitely nice to see him running off all of that excess energy. If anybody out there with an active lifestyle is looking for an active young lab, I have one for you.
