Tyler's first taste
of the ocean
August 3, 2023
Rusty took Tyler to San Francisco's Ocean beach.
There the young Shepherd ran in the surf, chased sea
gulls, smelled sea weed, and generally had a great
time.

The 9 year old
German Shepherd girl
Soon they were scootering through Golden Gate Park
where Tyler met a female Shepherd.
Rusty said he could see the family resemblance.

Tyler met a
labradoodle
Rusty noticed the dog exhibited ritualistic behavior.
Every time the owner threw a ball the dog chased it,
but when she reached it she'd run in circles
before picking it up.
Rusty told the owner he thought his dog has what is
called Stereotypy -
"an abnormal behavior
sometimes seen in captive animals, particularly
those held in small enclosures with little
opportunity to engage in more normal behaviors"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotypy
The owner confirmed the dog was rescued from a breeder
who had kept it confined to a cage until she was 1-year
old.

Golden Gate Park

They found the
California Academy of Sciences
That was not easy because Golden Gate park is so
huge with winding streets, paths, etc. One time
Rusty stopped to show his Google map to some park
workers who shook their heads.
"Your map is too
small"
they said shaking their heads.
Tyler loved science.
So did Rusty.
