Once again this post and picture is in honor of our upper 90’s weather. Tomorrow they say we’ll be flirting with 100 degrees again. *insert long-suffering sigh here*
This photo was taken earlier this summer while playing at the beach at the lake. My grand dog is pictured – Xena – wearing her life jacket and I want you to notice the yellow ball at the top. Xena, like most labs, just loves the water, running, swimming and BALLS! She had a BLAST running after that ball and was just exhausted after a while.
Unfortunately dogs just don’t have the sense to stop running and chasing when they get worn out, so we had to intervene a bit. No matter what we did with that silly ball she would find it, so finally Loni stuck it in the handle of the life jacket and it WORKED! Xena went back to more leisurely swimming and her breathing returned to normal.
And of course you’ll see Miss B sitting on the back of the boat. Rarely do I remember her sitting much while on the boat, so this must have been one of those moments of getting her second wind as well.
Oh how that water looks inviting right now!
