They'll do it all day if you will!

my sister playing fetch with my brother's golden retriever at a family picnic. The dog's name is Homer.

Skippy lives up to his breed - he loves tennis balls and fetch.

When Macy fetches a ball she runs towards it at full speed then decelerates at the last second - when she's on the beach, sand goes spraying up as she skids. Trying to capture this was good practice with the various focusing options on the camera.

Another shot from New Zealand. Captured these two teenage girls playing with their dog as the sun was setting. He was having a great time! Finished with two textured layers.

I was in San Diego this weekend for a quick trip to visit some family. Before we left Sunday afternoon, we stopped at a dog beach near Ocean Beach to meet up with a friend.

I have never been to a dog beach before, and it was such a funny site! So many dogs running, jumping, fetching, and playing! It made me want to get a dog so bad!

I happen to see a man with his dog (pictured here) playing fetch and this dog was getting some serious height! Eventually I got to meet and chat with the owner, and got his email address to send some pictures to him! I love meeting new people (and doggies!). Thanks for the great photo opportunity!

Hope managed to wear herself out pretty thoroughly about 2 days into our 4 day trip to Lake Tahoe. She made it look like she was going to run after her floatie toy for this photo, but she slowed to a walk right after I took it.

Caddie loves to chase the disc around. She's great for practicing my drives, not so much for bringing to a course.

The hound's floppy face during a game of fetch

I was playing around with the Timer on my iPhone, as it’s hard to take a picture AND throw the ball.

So I set a 3 second timer, waited until the warning sounds and chucked the ball. The camera took a burst of 10 pictures.

Since I was outside (playing fetch) I didn’t stop to see what I got. I did it twice and then put the phone away.

The result?

I should have thrown the ball sooner, as most of the shots were of a fluffy rump far in the distance.

That said, I think the “technique” has merit and I will definitely try it again.

Kix is pretty prould of his new ball (actually one he took from one of the older dogs. Now time to hide it.

Miller, on the other hand, just loves the water!
