Animal Tracks While On a Walk

I went on a walk and came across a series of tracks on the ground. Looking closer, I was able to see that the tracks were from a deer, dog, and human footprint. The picture of the single track is of a domestic dog and it was defined really well in the sandy soil. Have you noticed any tracks around your house lately? Do you know what animals made them? I loved seeing these tracks because they told me a story about the kinds of animals that live near me but I don't often get to see!
