What is the magic?
On those days Lassie is like a vegetable, so lazy and desperate, because of the heat!
But I cannot understand why…when the ball appears she is ready to run, play, fly, bark! Running under the sun ! but when the ball goes away and it’s time to go home…her signal is “low battery”…!
Aw! The magic of the ball…is a kind of dog-magic!
Big Black Magic (you could see me in her eye!)
Happy middle of the week!
Of course the perfect song is:
Straw dog
I'd been planning this shot for a few weeks as the grass turned to straw during the heatwave. Only problem, it was too hot to take Fudge for a walk during the day when the sun was shining on this bank of grass. The weather has cooled somewhat and we've even had some welcome rain. This week marked the 8th anniversary of us getting our golden boy, as Fudge arrived as a very cute puppy on July 20th 2010.

I'm getting VERY frustrated. I don't know what is wrong with me - I can't seem to get a good action shot of Josie unless she is running parallel to me. I've tried changing every setting imaginable on my camera, and I can't get it to focus on her face...I'm about to give up :(
Week 9 has kind of creep up on us and we have not been able to do much better than this.
Dylian is showcasing his best command of "place" having to keep it even if his crazy sister is doing all kinds of crazy and distracting things around him.
This week he learned to spin... He learns quickly which makes it all that much more fun. I need ideas of tricks to teach him. I think he really needs to be challenged.
A picture of Misty who today November 21 2018 died.
She was just over 14 years old and was getting on In life she was suffering from problems associated with old age.
She had had a good life, travelled thousands of miles all over the UK Including Cornwall, East Anglia, West Wales and the far North of Scotland Including several Scottish Islands such as Isle of Colonsay, Isle of Gigha, Isle of Arran, Isle of Jura and Isle of Islay.
Misty was the last surviving member of the 'Brat Pack' as they were to become known which consisted of Gnasher, Misty and Tip.She asserted herself as the Matriarch of the pack and as such often put the others In their place, but always looked after them at the same time.
She was, In her younger days quite a fearsome yet protective dog and If anybody was to come near her of any of her pack/family with a stick such as walkers, she would 'keep them at bay'.
Even In her advancing years she was still a puppy she would run around the house with the other dogs playing with them.
She was a 'Daddys Girl' she would follow me everywhere never letting me out of her sight and when my Wife would put her arms around me Misty would bark as If to say 'Hey that's my Dad'.
Today we lost a Legend, a dog who definitely made her mark, a dog who was Misty the short haired border Collie.
See ya soon Misty.
Awwww the paw! Some days I wish there weren't so many paw prints to clean off the floor but I know there will come a day when I will miss them. So I'll smile and enjoy each day we have!
... and a colorful, artful crab.
I took the dogs to swim this afternoon, to beat the summer-like temperatures we've been having recently. well, our swimming time was cut short when alice went off and rolled in a bunch of burrs and came out just covered in them. she even had them in her face! so, we had to head back to the car so I could use a pair of hemostats to pull them out... when will I ever learn to carry an actual instrument on myself at all times? lol! since we had to leave the river, we drove downtown on the way home to take this shot for 52 weeks. I took a photo of june in front of this wall at my favorite restaurant a few months ago and have been meaning to get one of alice as well.
yesterday I took the dogs to the beach for the day. it was strange, because dogs are allowed on the beach after October 1st, but with the warm weather there were also tons of people out on the sand. I still took the dogs out and let them swim, since we had gone all the way down there. they were so good! they didn't bother anyone, they stayed within our own little area and just retrieved and returned to me, and repeated. both dogs were so wound up, they were leaping the waves and swimming out into the ocean. alice hasn't done this since the one time she went under a few years ago and june has never done it. they were going crazy! there were some beach-goers who were videoing the browngirls having so much fun. it was a nice weekend, but I know we are all looking forward to some actual fall weather soon.
I love those shoes! It’s my new pair, the fourth!
I wear almost only them, they are so comfortable…in every season!
The little one is not for dogs, it’s made to carry the cell phone! But I arranged it like a dog-shoe!
Lassie poses feeling pretty strange, she has never worn shoes!
No, I won’t make her go out with Croc’s on! :)
Have a beautiful Croc’s Monday!
Reached Explore #187! COOOL! :D

The Daily Dog Challenge "It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time..." Tell us a story with a photo today!
Minnie was on the cushion that I had intended to take Blender's photo on, so I thought "What the heck, I'll just set up with Minnie and move Blender in.
Minnie was so cute and snuggly. I wanted to see her eyes. Ever so gently I bit into the squeaker that I keep in my mouth to get the hounds attention.
Minnie came up out of her sleeping position and I just happened to snap as she was coming after the squeaker.
