The Nelson Chronicles: Club Nelson

Last weekend, we dog-sat for Wren. Wren is a yellow lab that belongs to Jillian's teacher, Mrs. Rook. Wren is being trained as a guide dog for the blind. She is really very smart. Apparently, that is all left at the door upon entering Club Nelson. Ah, Club Nelson, where a dog can be a dog - and where owner's flee for their lives, not to mention their sanity. Anyhow, it was an interesting weekend, that's for certain. Ask Roger, for instance. When he came home Friday morning, I let Wren out of her kennel. I asked him if he was "ready" before I opened the door. He replied yes; the door opens, Wren takes 3 mighty leaps (and a bound, I think) and promptly knocks Roger down to the floor. Yep, he was ready alright. Roxie enjoyed herself, too. I'm sure that it was great doggie fun to have another 4-legged friend to play "chase" with. Except that Wren is twice the size of Roxie, so when Wren tried to follow Roxie under the table, things got a tad bit awkward. All in good fun, right? Here are some pictures that capture the moment.
