Zoo dogs mish mosh

We took our dogs to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.. 

While we were there, I took a lot of pictures.

Videos, too.

Most of the best ones made it into the main post, but as always, there are a few that didn't make that cut but are still too good not to share.

Et voila! the mish mosh post.

One of my favorite non-animals parts of our visit was walking Piper across this net bridge.

Those holes were big enough to swallow her paws, but she had no problem walking daintily down the middle. Good job, Pipes!

She was also very brave on the giraffe feeding platform. Those grates aren't made for dogs!

Our ticket time was for 12:30 PM, which was late enough in the day that most of the giraffes had already eaten their fill of lettuce.

It took a lot longer than expected to rid ourselves of two little bundles of leaves.

Success!

Although the dogs weren't allowed in the petting areas, we still took a moment to admire the goats' very cool enclosure.

Also, check out their names! So cheesy! 

Here are Angelo and Tang getting up close and personal with a rhino.

This license plate was spotted in an employee parking lot.

No real reason for this one other than my dog is cute.

Angelo's dog is also cute, but he is not nearly as cooperative when it comes to posing.

This is when I discovered that I have something in common with Tang's favorite animals.

Here's another picture of Emmett the grizzly because as Angelo says, he is friend shaped and I love him.

Otters ottering.

Finally, I know this Zoo has zebras, but on this day we didn't find them. In fact, the carousel horses were the only equids we saw during our visit.

That's okay. I have reason to believe we'll be back, with our white dogs in tow.
