Date: Saturday, September 17, 2011 Characters: Tyler Ross, Ava Byrne Location: Park off 7th Status: Private Summary: Ty takes the kids to the park Completion: Complete
Her favorite park off 7th street was a little out of her way, but still well within walking distance if the weather was nice. It happened to be Wilbur's favorite too, and on days like yesterday when it was raining, Ava'd swear he would pout at her when she opted to walk him on the much smaller patch of park near her apartment on Henderson. She was making up for it today, and had walked him all the way from her place to the park across from the Tex-Mex restaurant. When they got there, as usual, Wilbur still had energy to burn
( ... )
Tigger started barking, and Ty glanced up to see a dog approaching them. Rosie was sniffing the air, as if that somehow told her everything she needed to know about the new dog, while Orly was practically bouncing beside him. He'd never hear the end of it from Alex if Orly proved to be a happy and bouncy dog. He liked snuggling, too, and was a little scared of strangers, so he kept himself by Ty while the other two were tugging forward to meet the other dog.
"I don't know about everyone, but I think two of mine are happy with pouncing,' Ty said, grinning at the dog's owner as they got closer together.
"Wilbur will be glad to know that. He pouts when dogs give him the brushoff." She smiled at the man when she reached him, cringing apologetically when Wilbur went ahead and pounced anyway, giving an exploratory sniff first.
"You seem more easygoing than a lot of the owners he crosses, at least," she offered, tugging Wilbur back to a more respectful distance.
"Tigger pouts, too. He's friendly, and, until recently, he wasn't around other dogs unless he was staying at my friends' place for a few hours." Ty smiled. "We just got these two, so I haven't figured out yet if they pout or not."
He looked down at the dogs and laughed. "He's not hurting anything, so there's not really any reason to get annoyed. Dogs are friendly, and it's fine so long as he doesn't bite or get mean."
