We wanted to show Max around our area a little bit, but the cornfield didn't seem like it would be that exciting. For those who don't know, Max lives in South Africa and he has been sick. Since he always gives lovely tours of South Africa for us, we wanted to help show him other parts of the world.
So, we decided to take Max for a romp at our favorite dog park. This place is tons of fun. Sometimes you can even tree a squirrel. Bunny almost caught one here once, but he had too much of a head start on her.
After that, we had to take him shopping. My Dog's Bakery is our favorite place to shop. They bake most of the treats there that day and they also have yummy stuff like reindeer antlers and bully sticks. The toy and collar selection is pretty nice, too!
Then we thought it would be fun to take Max down to the riverfront in Peoria. There's usually a lot of neat stuff happening here and we didn't want to bore him with shopping all day. They have art festivals, musicians, a long riverfront trail to take walks and bike rides on and lots of stores and restaurants. Bark In The Park happens here, too. We took him to our favorite place and got some steak since it's Valentine's Day and they had steak on special.
After that, we sent him on his way, since we knew he had more stops to make than Santa Claus on Christmas Eve! It was great having him here this afternoon and we wish him safe travels on the rest of his journeys.
Awww, I hope Max enjoyed the trip to your favorite places! And I hope he feels better soon! Good wishes are going his way from all our here on the hillside farm!
