Today I: went for a 6.5 mile walk along the Los Gatos Creek Trail. I got so many compliments on how beautiful I am! I especially enjoyed how excited a few kids were to see me and I really wanted to say hi to them because they probably would have been great at giving me pets, which I love. On our walk, I was interested in sniffing out all the lizards and squirrels in the bushes, but I mostly just wanted to keep the adventure going and continue walking. After I stopped to drink some water, I liked to cool down by sticking my paws in the water bowl and splashing all around. My human said it`s really adorable to watch. I was so happy and relaxed on the drive back to the shelter and can’t wait to do it again! Three Words to Describe Me are: Easy-going, polite, gentle Notes from My Walker: Susie Q is such a sweetheart! She seemed to adore being pet while we relaxed in the grass after our long walk. As soon as I started to pet her, she sat down and leaned in for more contact. She even gave me a few wet kisses on my face while I pet her. I think she will be a total cuddlebug in her future home. Overall, she walks very nicely on leash and only pulled hard when squirrels popped out to surprise us. Susie Q knows sit and is so, so, so gentle when taking treats! We encountered a lot of dogs that wanted to say hello, some more forward about it than others, but Susie Q had only neutral to positive reactions to them as we declined their offer to meet and continued our walk.

Today I:Went for a 4 plus mile hike at Almaden Quicksilver park. I really enjoyed getting out of my pen. We left early to avoid the 100 degree heat expected this afternoon. There were a lot of people and dogs on the trail, but I ignored them for the most part.
Three Words to Describe Me are: Mellow, calm, content. Notes from My Walker: Susie Q is such a mellow dog. She is not reactive to people or other dogs although she is interested in lizards. She does not pull on the leash and is a sweetheart to walk with. She is not overly affectionate.
