Kobe: The Most Interesting Dog in the World

Today was our first day back from a well needed time off and we tackled the index trail from the pony rides in Griffith Park. Not the pace I would have liked, but indeed on the right trail, we ran 4.5 miles. We were joined by Hanna, Kobe and new-comer, Mamba. She will be joining us on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the remainder of the summer. Mama says Mamba is quite the fertile myrtle, if you can catch my sniff, and I think Mamba thinks I'm cute. I think she's lovely. But for some reason James and Mama are on full alert when I am next to her. We just want to play! Mama says in a few weeks Mamba will be "one of the guys." I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds like we'll still be having fun.
Kobe is well seasoned and only wants to test the goods, rather than get to know the creature like myself, and is uninterested in fueling a lasting friendship. I, on other paw, would like to romance Mamba for a fun run in the park and perhaps a swim in the ocean. Surely Kobe has been watching Dos Equis' The Most Interesting Man In the World commercials and feels a need to be macho, yet as much he struts and delivers tons of warm charm nuggets, I am glad he is my partner. Much can be said about Kobe, but no one can deny his special aura and the famous trademark that gentle bear leaves behind.
