As promised...a couple of pictures playing on the beach. The first is Blaze chasing Tazzy through the shallow surf. While Blaze usually takes this game very seriously, and is very focused, Tazzy usually has a big grin on her face, and just seems to have a good time running.
Here the dogs entertain themselves by wrestling while Dan and I read.
I'm not sure what it is about the beach, but humans and dogs alike seem to love it. We meet lots of doggy playmates there, though several of them have followed us down the beach quite a ways while we run. Usually with their owners yelling futilely behind them and the dogs very blatantly ignoring them. I guess not everyone has worked on recall as much as they should. While Tazzy has surprised a couple of people by putting her nose in their book when they haven't looked up to give her attention, they have both been very well-behaved on the beach. They haven't stolen any food, followed people they shouldn't have, and are even getting much better at waiting to say hi to dogs until released.
