Life's (not) a Beach

 

OK, so ya do what ya gotta do. Here's Buddy and Shiloh cooling off in their own dog-friendly back yard.

Scary Beach Dogs

 

 

Here are 2 good examples of why we have to have strict laws in the summer about our dogs enjoying the beach. Scary huh? Have "they" considered how many children leave waste on the beach or run through our quiet areas? Dogs, like children, can be well trained and behave well in public. Why is it that a lot of visitors can evict our resident dogs from the beach during the hottest time of the year? Can't we all just get along? Maybe a section of beach where dogs are allowed and people who don't care to share their days with dogs can frequent another part of the beach?

LUNAtic

 

 

 

Sitting with Luna in Indian Wells is always fun and never dull. Ready for her to head to MT for the summer though!

Dude, where's my Corona?

 

Another big day at "Camp Sammy." Here's Sammy chillin' at the beach in the cool chair and shade his parents got for him and enjoying his birthday beach towel from Auntie Carol. Don't worry about the tongue... his water is behind the chair in the shade. I think the tongue largely protects us from predators.

Maggie

 

This is our friend Maggie aka: Magster, Mags, Monster, Magpie... Maggie has lived the good life. We met her in MT where she was an expert at the "duck and run" game with Luna and Bob. The kind of girl who stirs the pot and then sits back and watches the mayhem innocently. Maggie lucked out with one of the best dog dads ever, and has since added one of the greatest dog moms a dog could wish for. I am sure she is still quietly making noise in her new hometown of Austin TX.

Sammy's Bday

 

The haul! Even a card from Buddy and Shiloh :)

Sammy's Bday

 

Auntie Carol lets me pick my own stuff

Here I am on my way to Petsmart in Auntie Carol's car. Faster, FASTER!

My Sweet Family

 

These are some pics of my sweet family. Aren't they just the best? Send me pics of your family and I will post them here too.

Joey and Dory

 

Joey and Dory are step-brother and sister. They have the same issues many stepchildren do, but they are real sweeties. They had the good fortune of being adopted by 2 of the best animal parents ever!

Ziggy, ZigMan, the Zigster, MR. Man, Zig

 

Ziggy is a good friend of ours from Montana. He's a crazy man, a real animal! You name it he loves to do it, especially if it involves food. His Mom Sue and I are giving him appropriate homage in one pic with Luna and Bob rounding out the group of "usual suspects."
