Original Toronto Star caption: They stand on guard; The spring weather has arrived at last and what better way to spend the day than to take a snooze in Wilket Creek Park! But 5-year-old Nicole Markowitz didn't have to worry about being disturbed - not with two large pals like pet Great Danes; 2-year-old Storm (right); and 11-month-old Breeze. Nicole's parents were also close by; enjoying the sun.
