Boston Terrier Meetup

Since we're on the topic of pets, I thought I'd post some photos from our play date last weekend. The photos are more snapshotty than anything but who doesn't love to see these adorable dogs? Chloe went to her first Boston Terrier meetup. If you've never seen the website, check it out here. There are meetup groups for pretty much every interest you can think of. We thought it would be fun to get together with a bunch of other boston owners... there were around 15 other bostons there. Chloe was not as psyched about it. Even though she has always been around my parent's pugs, she gets so anxious around other dogs. We've started taking her to the bark park but the one that's closest to us doesn't have a separate area for big and small dogs so she ends up getting trampled. One time she got ran over by a huge golden retriever and then she tried to attack his face. It wasn't a good scene. Last weekend went considerably better, but she was still nervous. I think we'll try to keep taking her to the meetups in hope that she eventually starts playing with the others like a normal dog. I don't want my dog to be a social reject!

I love the pics! You did well again April! The dogs are all in action, and still perfect pics!
One thing I don't get: In France, these dogs are called French Bulldogs and in the US they are called Boston Terriers...
