Maude, Wyatt and Overton Bark

I believe God is there in all the little details of our lives.  And I believe He has used our sweet dogs to help us through tough times. We have 2 of the sweetest little dogs I've ever met. Their names are Maude and Wyatt and they are Boston Terriers.

Stewart has had Maude since she was a puppy, and we Wyatt is a rescue doggie who came into our lives March 2011.  Maude is the little one, she's about 13 years old and Wyatt is about 3.

They are both so funny and have the biggest personalities.  Maude is getting to be an old lady and sometimes has the attitude to go with it.  She is starting to have a lot of aches and pains and will do a little snap at you if she wants you to leave her alone. But she is so sensitive to moods and will crawl up in my lap on days I'm sad or crying.

Wyatt is the opposite...He loves to love and is very rambunctious.  He does this thing where he'll come up to you and just put his paw on your leg or hand and just look at you as if to say, "I love you. Now let's play!"

A few weeks ago, on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, we took them to Overton Bark.  It's new, awesome dog park located inside Overton Park.  Our awesome Memphis Zoo, a golf course, park with a lake, Brooks Art Museum and Memphis College of Art are located there.
We met our friends Shane and Ashley and their 2 dogs there and just had a wonderful time.

I loved how the dog park was separated in two parts. One side was for little dogs only and the other for any size dog.

Stewart and I were a little worried how Wyatt would act since we've never really had him around many unfamiliar dogs...but he did such a good job and seemed to make friends easily.

Sweet Maude was having a ball.
