Chester Goes to Preschool

Today Greg had the day off and Layla asked if she could walk to school. We haven't walked there before but thought it might be a nice way to start our day. We drove to the edge of Oliver so we didn't have to walk on the highway. When we parked we realized we didn't have Chester's leash so Greg and the dog went back home while Baron, Layla and I started the walk to school.


Here's Greg trying to catch up with us once he got the leash for Chester.


This is Layla and I walking up the road to the school.

We made better time than we thought we would (only about 20 minutes each way) so we arrived early for school. I'm usually early anyway so Layla can play at the park for 5 or 10 minutes before she goes in for school. There are a few of us that do this so when we got there with Chester the kids came running over to see. Chester was really excited too and just stood there with his tail wagging as the kids gave him some love.

Here's a few of Layla's friends with Chester. The girl at Chester's head has her own English Mastiff at home.


This is a picture of some cacti in bloom, or starting to bloom.

We had parked our car by the lake so when we got back we had to let Chester cool off. Of course we joined him.

  2. The girl who has her own mastiff was the only one brave enough to stand by his mouth. Lol!

  3. It's nice that Chester has mellowed so much that he stands still for the kids - of course he has always been gentle with your kids, right from the start.

  4. Chester has always loved visiting Layla's friends. He got to visit Jill's dayhome when he was 2(and peed on her puppy) and he visited Rosie's dayhome when he was 3.
