Like me, my dogs are homebodies. Jelly is dog bed-ridden while Bubba and Lulu…don’t play well with others. Oh, sure, Jelly enjoys her daily half-block walks. Bubba loves his trips to the farmer’s market. And Lulu may be ambivalent to other dogs, she likes nothing better than to meet people. And so, when I heard that the local French Bulldog Meet-Up group was having a birthday part for one of their own, I thought it might be a great opportunity for Lulu to get out and socialize.

Her M.O. is so predictable. The first thing she does when she gets through the park gate is to hop onto the nearest bench and crawl onto someone’s lap.

Lulu does the weird sloppy-slidey-shuffle whenever she’s on gravel.

Oh, yeah. Who’s gettin’ some?
Always on her best behavior when treats are involved.
Handsome boy.
I would have put Lulu’s hat on, but she’s got such a small noggin’ I was afraid she’d paper cut her eyeballs.
