First, we went to the baseball diamond in the park on our walk this morning. For the first time in weeks it was neither knee deep in snow nor ankle deep in mud. I wish I'd taken my camera, because he ran and ran and ran! It was so much fun. There were several good sticks, too, which had been nicely broken in by other dogs, so he chased them and chewed them to his heart's content.
As soon as we got home, he went out to explore the yard, which is rapidly reappearing from under the snow. And guess what - his rabbit buddies from last year are back! He played with them for nearly half an hour.
Perhaps I'm suffering from spring fever silliness, but I'm imagining a little rabbit track team practicing sprint starts to fake him out: "Good job, Peter! You got him all the way to the step. Too bad, Benjamin, he only jumped to the tree that time." I'm pretty sure the rabbits know they're safe down there.
He's such a good hunter...
