Groom Gus.

Kai has decided that he would like to be the official dog groomer for Gus.





Quick cute story on these two... I take the two of them out twice a day in the field next to us. I throw the ball with Gus and let Kai explore the outdoors. Today I walked up a good fifteen feet to get a ball from Gus and let Kai continue with a super cool dirt pile he seemed to like. I looked back and there was a guy crossing the field with his bike. Gus saw this too and froze. He dropped the ball and watched the guy. Once the guy was about twenty feet from Kai, Gus hauled butt over to make sure he wasn't going to mess with Kai!! It was so cute how protective Gus is over Kai. I don't think Kai will have much problems once people see a hundred pound dog running at them!! Ha Ha.

Bully



Some ladies at church have organized a play group that I take Kai to once a week. We meet at different parks and Kai really enjoys it. Yesterday at play group a Mom came who has never come before and she brought her little boy. I know her little boy from going to nursery with Kai at church... let's just say I'm not a fan. So when the kid is around Kai I am always within about a two feet radius. So much so the little boy asked me why are you around? Let me tell you why I am around, this little boy does not like Kai!! He is clearly older than Kai. In fact Kai is the youngest in nursery and probably the most social. He has no problems going up to kids and speaking his own language. Kai doesn't seem to mind when kids don't understand his language, he's even pretty fine with kids taking his toys from him (his Mom however is NOT cool with that).

But I'm digressing.... this little boy is mean to Kai. He tries to push him and gets in his face and tells him to go away. He will instantly go take whatever Kai is playing with it and dis guard it for whatever new toy Kai has found. Kai doesn't know what go away means, so I don't think any of this really bothers Kai. But it bothers me!!! And to top it all off the mother doesn't even pay attention as her son is scowling and my son and demanding he go away. This little boy is a bully and it makes me uncomfortable to leave Kai in nursery too. The nursery leaders seem too busy socializing and are oblivious to most things going on. Any suggestions on what I should? Any anti bully advice?
