公園で At the park

 昨夜は少し雨が降りましたが、朝散歩の時間までには綺麗に晴れて公園は清々しい秋の日。

It rained during the night but, by the time we went out for a morning walk, the weather was beautiful and dry.

いつもの公園入口の草地で朝日を浴びながらくつろぎましたが、うっかり墓地が背景になってしまいました。
We rested on the grass near the park entrance, enjoying the warm sun.

カンタがやって来ました。
Kanta, a male Kaiken, approaching.

タイガの姿は見え見えなのに奇襲攻撃の体勢。
Taiga thinks that she is invisible and prepares to ambush Kanta. 

明るい時間に会うのは久しぶりなので、二人とも嬉しそうです。このあと公園上の林へ移動してたっぷり遊ばせました。
Kanta is 7 years old and we have known him since he was a tiny puppy.  Kanta, Hina, Sena and Taiga seem to be aware that they are of the same breed, judging the way they interact with each other.  We moved to a more isolated part of the park to let them run freely.


======================
帰りしな出会った初対面の子犬。
On our way out of the park, we met a new face.
もうすぐ生後4か月になる黒い豆柴の男の子で、名前は「ケビン」君。何と、今日が公園デビューだそうです。怖いもの知らずでタイガにもグングン近寄ろうとします。
A miniature Black Shiba Inu, less than 4 months old, named "Kevin".  Today is the first day in the park for Kevin and he is all excited.  He has a happy temperament and also he has not experienced the "puppy fear periods".  So, he tries to get closer to Taiga with all his strength.

当初の興奮が収まったので、今度はもう少し落ち着いてタイガに紹介します。
Kevin's owners tried to calm him down, which was a very sensible thing to do.


本当はタイガに遊んでほしくてうずうずですが、タイガのエネルギーレベルが低すぎです。でも、公園では様々な子犬に会えるので、この明るい性格ならいくらでも遊び相手が見つかるでしょう。
Kevin is much calmer now, but Taiga is too old to accommodate him.  However, in this park, there is no shortage of puppies and Kevin will have a very happy childhood with his pleasing temperament.
