ヤマト横の草地に着くと、近所の紀州犬、ウメちゃんがいました。久しぶりです。
When we arrived at the park, we met Ume, my neighbour's female Kishu. Even though we live only about 20 meters apart, it has been some time since we last met.
Taiga is not in the mood.
入口広場。
ハゼの木が紅葉し始めています。
橋を渡って公園の中央へ移動。
We crossed the bridge to move to the centre of the park.
As we were heading towards the woods for cooler air, suddenly, Kishu appeared.
自分からタイガを遊びに誘って挑発。
キリュウはまだ若者。怖いもの知らずでタイガのことも同等とみなします。
Kiryu is a fearless young boy and treats Taiga like his equal.
Suddenly, Taiga starts digging. This is her sign saying 'I've had enough', when she feels that her opponent is too much for her.
しばし休んで木陰を楽しむことにしました。ウメちゃんが嬉しそう。
キリュウと別れたあと、林の散策。
After saying good-bye to Kiryu, we continued our walk into the woods.
林のなかはヒンヤリして心地いい。
The air was so cool and pleasant in the shade.
帰りは四中横の草地を通りましたが、木陰に着くとウメちゃんが座り込み。ワンコにとっても清々しい朝なので、まだ帰りたくないようです。
On our way home, we passed through another field, where Ume sat down in the shade. The morning was so pleasant and Ume enjoyed the walk so much that she did not want to leave yet.
Ume becoming affectionate to Taiga. She is one year younger than Taiga.
ウメちゃんはタイガがママに甘えていてもヤキモチをやきません。
