On the Trail

Nosy
I swear, she’ll investigate any smell!

Yet More Interest
Mattie once again sniffing along. She had a traumatic day today. Five strangers came to the house and went inside. I took her on a walk to get over it.

Enjoying the Scenery
Mattie likes to watch the stuff in the park sometimes, just sitting and watching the people go by. She gets lots of looks herself.

Aren't I Gorgeous?
Mattie, every once in a while, just poses for a picture. This was one of those times.

Something Smells

Still Smells
I’m not sure what she smelled, but she was very, very intent.

Stepping Around
They’d left their soccer ball at the curb. Mattie courteously didn’t punch a hole in it with her teeth.

Shaking
Mattie in the middle of shaking something out of her fur…

Still Wanting Kids

Mattie Investigates
Two pictures today – another of Mattie looking at kids and then one of her showing us a branch she found. She was all over the branch for a good five minutes. I guess she was smelling birds.

Mattie Sees a Horde
There were a whole bunch of kids on the playground. This is how Mattie reacted. She wanted to meet them all and go play with them. It means she’s pretty well adjusted again. Of course, none of the maintenance men think of her as a sweet, playful dog.

On the Hunt
Mattie saw something that sparked her interest. She just -had- to look and keep looking.
