The strangest thing happened last weekend, Poppy took us for a walk to the South End. I mean, the journey started out normal enough, but somehow our puppy, who’s visited this neighborhood many times in her young life, was actually leading the way.
After several direction changes, we turned a corner and ran right into a small, dark, and handsome Cockapoo named Maddox! Serendipity? I think not.
As it turns out, he’s a BostonZest fan who’s followed us for years! (And, apparently, Poppy has figured out how to follow those twitter feeds.)
Maddox is a pretty easy going guy who often enjoys sleeping in. In fact, his person usually has to wake him up in the morning, which they both seem to like.
At 10-and-a-half, Maddox still has fun with his favorite toy, a 5-legged octopus – which has obviously been through a lot of playtime. Every once in awhile he gets a super-squeaky but, of course, only breaks that out in the middle of the night.
As we said goodbye, this little guy pulled a face. Then, I swear, Poppy whispered something in his ear and he perked up again. Something tells me we’ll all be “walked” this way again, soon.
See ya, Maddox!
