It has been a couple of decades since we took our children on play dates and today we found ourselves revisiting this idea with the puppy. It turns out that a friend has just gotten a new Anatolian Shepherd puppy born the same date as Ranger. She was looking for some socialization time for her pup and we have been seeking the same. Though we both live in Southwest Virginia, we live about 75 minutes apart, so we met on the Blue Ridge parkway at a picnic area that had no visitors and turned the two pups loose. It took about 5 minutes of circling and sniffing before they were chasing, tumbling, nipping and digging.
The adults sat, talking and laughing at the pups antics. I think the hour and a half was well spent for both puppies and ours slept all the way home, totally worn out. He normally plays this time of the night and he is still sacked out.
