I think Sampson could do dining out fairly well, Delilah not so much.

I think she could handle the people, but if someone dropped a cracker….it’d be all over. 🙂

Sorry Cape May lost, it does sound like a lovely place.

Rodrigo is funny, because he’d love to go to a restaurant and he’d bask in the attention. I should take him to a sidewalk cafe at a less crowded/busy time to see how he does. I bet he’d enjoy it and it’ll be great for socialization.

He’s getting better on the trail. Slowly. 🙂

It is great when a kid asks…although….I was waiting at the vet’s office once with Leah, and a small boy asked to pet her. Yay!

Except, when I said No, he started pouting…

And then, when the next owner walked in with their dog, he asked to pet the dog, they said “of course” – and he stuck his tongue out at me!

My jaw dropped. LOL! But at least he just was mad at me, and not crying that my dog bit him.

I’ve never been to Cape May. I HAVE been to Key West and zombie cats aside, it was a lot of fun. Cape May might do better if New Jersey had more representatives like you and Honey and less of people like Snooki and JWoww.

I always enjoy reading your blog, your blog so much so that I am giving you the “Sunshine Award” (http://jaxdogmom.blogspot.com/… for details). I know I don’t comment much, but I really do read your stuff regularly! Thanks for always making me smile. — Kelley

From the Husband:
I’m glad to see someone else knows about Gecko’s. It’s one of our favorites.

Geckos is a great place to explore with your dog. You’re right that they’re very accommodating. And those few tables on a slightly lower level provide shade and a visual barrier from all the other excitement.

Happy Acres sounds interesting. Many camping places don’t allow dogs in the cabins.

What a perfect city dog. BJ is looking to have had so many great socialization opportunities.

Increasingly restaurants are banning children. I wonder if there are any that allow dogs but not toddlers? 🙂

But I understand your worries. I hate seeing children rush up to Honey. I honestly believe she’s bomb proof re: biting. But the child doesn’t know that.

When a child asks from a polite distance if they can pet her first, I really lavish them (and their parents) with praise.
