Rex's debut

Rex made his debut into society today, at a brewery, of course. I took him up to Patch where Green Dogs was having an adoption event in conjunction with a disc dog contest. It was pretty much over by the time we arrived but that was good for Rex. 

This was his first solo outing without any of his siblings. He was very nervous in the beginning, but he liked people and was happy to accept petting from anyone who offered. After about 15 minutes, Rex saw that nothing terrible was going on, and that many people wanted to pet him and even offered treats. He also seemed to have a nose for good beer and made repeated attempts to dunk his long, pointed nose into a pint. He was happy to see Clay there because he was a familiar face, and he allowed Alandra to hold his leash when I went to the restroom. By the time we left he was walking on the leash, more or less willingly, and he seemed much more relaxed and maybe even enjoyed himself a bit.

Obviously, he needs much more of this and so does his sister, Cara.
