My wife and I were visiting a local park the other night and taking photos of some Trumpeter Swans when we ran across this really cool dog. His name is Harley, and he is a chocolate Labradoodle. He was a riot and loved to play in the water.
Had a chat with this nice bloke who was walking his Staffie along Frinton Beach. He liked the picture.

NOTE: You can do action shots with a manual focus lens by simply picking a big enough f-stop, and pre-focusing where you think the action will be. Hershey, the wonder dog, is in prefect focus here. The toy she has in her mouth is a special "soft" Frisbee like thing that she enjoys chasing.

DAYCARE + TRAINING
A day with Dog Taxi is more than just fun and fetch, it also includes obedience training – for beginner, intermediate, and advanced pooches.
Listen up, pups: join the Dog Taxi pack and have a great time! We make it easy for you and your parents.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
We pick you up at your house
We go to the beach or to the park for two hours with all of your best furry friends.You get to run, play, learn, socialize, and get dirty.
We even give you a little schooling – one-on-one and group training with all your favourite distractions around
(Balls! Scents! Other dogs!). Mom and Dad are amazed when you get home!
When the day is done, we drop you off at home for dinner with your tail wagging.
If dogs could smile, you would.
BOARDING + TRAINING
We believe that every dog deserves a fluffy bed and good night’s sleep.
We don’t do crates and cement floors. All of our dog’s stay in the Dog Taxi home – they have rooms and beds and plenty of space to run, play, and sleep.
GROOMING
Dirty dogs are no match for our grooming team. We offer washing, drying, shaving, and nail clipping.
TAXI SERVICES
We will transport your dog just about anywhere – to the vet, the groomer’s, and even grandma’s house. Prices start at $25.
Toby is learning to play fetch .. kind of natural for him ... the big job is getting him to drop it but he improves daily .. the toy in his mouth is his favourite to fetch:-) Toby will be 13 weeks old tomorrow ...

Week 3 in the 52 weeks of Coco.
Coco loves fetch. She did not break eye contact with that tennis ball. I could have dangled a juicy steak in front of her and she would not have taken her eyes off of that ball. She's a true Lab. Water and fetch. Those are her passions!!
I must caveat that I took this photo with the absolute worst lens in my bag, so please forgive the obvious flaws. Its an old Nikkor 70-300 that I got in 2005 before I knew anything about what made a decent lens. oh.my.god is this lens bad. Wow. I think today is the last day I will use it. Time to save up for a used 80-200 instead. I have lately been finding myself wishing that I had something longer for some portraits and especially when I am out photographing Coco. Does the need for gear ever cease?

I had a blast doing this batik style fantasy chow. I really love working in vivid colors lately. I think I will end up using this design to create a pair of Keds tennis shoes
Shane gets really jealous when we're out in the water an he isn't. After I took a wakeboarding run he was begging to come in with me, so I invited him in. Being a retriever, he wanted to help and insisted in bringing in my board for me.
