Windan’sea is a really cool place to reside if you can get over the cost of living and are comfortable being a renter for the near-term future. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to ever get my head around paying $800,000 for about 1,000 square feet of living space with no garage. It’s a total bummer because the beach is close (and quieter than other beaches in San Diego), the neighbors are cool, and there’s an awesome dog park at Draper and Gravilla. Even though it’s not officially a dog park, all the locals bring their pups to the park to socialize in the evenings.
Little Reggie’s best friend is a 140 pound Newfoundland named Hagar. He is supercool and super laid back, which is fortunate because lil’ Reg isn’t shy about wrestling with him. His mom Jen is also super cool and has puppy sat for Reggie a couple of times. Fortunately, they live just a hop skip and a jump away, which is awesome for play dates. The downside is that Reggie gets so sad when we leave, she refuses to walk home and ends up choking herself. Last time she choked herself so bad, she projectile vomited water all over the place. It was very sad (and reminded me I need to invest in a Gentle Leader collar).
Hagar is the sweetest big dog I have ever been around. Here is a little ode in his honor:
A big black dog with a great personality,
His name is Hagar and he lives just up the street from me,
We met at the park and he immediately became friends with Reggie,
It’s been quite a joy to see,
Two dogs of such disparate size play together so gleefully!
Despite his great size, Hagar is very gentle,
With a puppy’s energy, it’s been instrumental,
To find patient and kind friends for little Reg,
Who can take a bit of abuse and aren’t on edge,
Because a six month old puppy can be quite trying,
But Hagar’s had no problems complying,
With Reggie’s mounds of energy,
And as soon as we go for a walk, she can’t wait to see,
Her best friend Hagar.
