Max's Playground

We lucked out with our apartment complex.  Not only do we have a beautiful view of Lake Washington, we also have a huge grassy area right outside.  It is a perfect area to let Max go run and play.  Since he is stuck in the apartment all day...he really needs to get out and get some energy out.  He runs around, but when we try and play fetch with him...but he won't do it.  If we throw a ball he will run as fast as he can to it and then just start sniffing.  So then we have to walk, over grab the ball and throw it the other way....he will run and after it and then start sniffing!  Ha ha!  I don't know who is getting more exercise...us or Max!

Our complex sets out chairs on the decks for us to lay out on...maybe one day it will be warm enough to use them!

If you look closely you can see Mt. Rainier....right through the power lines.

All worn out!

But he can still chase Chris!

Nope....tired again!

The grassy area has also become an undefined dog park.  Everyone in the complex with dogs come out there and let them run around.  Max has a new best friend named Oliver.  He is a 6 month old Beagle and he is adorable!  The two of them are so cute together....running around and wrestling.  Right now Oliver and Max are the same size...about 15 pounds.  But pretty soon Oliver is going to get bigger....so we'll see if they are still friends when Oliver starts bullying him around!  :)  But right now whenever Oliver's mom brings him out to the grass....he and Max run at each other like long lost friends!  I will have to take a few pictures of them together the next time I'm out there.
