Mr. Olly found him a stick, we HAD to bring it home as well.

Just a suggestion - Olly running with a leash attached to his halter could cause injury if the loop end of the leash caught on something; better to disconnect the leash when he's running about.

Morning paddle to cool off.

My little munchkin turns 6-months old today.

Here’s my constant companion.

Babysitting our grandchildren today and they were in the pool so Fifi, my "Eskidoodle" was on guard duty. Notice she uses the pillow and crosses her legs. I always thought this kind of thing was only a human trait - femininity.
I ask her every morning, "Did you just wake up pretty again today?" Yeah, I'm a fool about my dogs. It's why I ever started this thread.

Almost ran over a nest of bunnies while mowing. Managed to grab three of them and relocated them down the road a bit. The other two made it to the field. My boy wasn't happy he didn't get in on the action Shot from a couple years ago.

Taking a break with Buddy under a shady tree, with a breeze you dream about all winter.

This is Emily adopted her from the Humane Society in November. 21 pounds and just a mut, about 2 years old, will lick you to death.

So this is Joe, my new Bearded Collie puppy, 9 weeks. He’s not a replacement for my old boy Gibbs, there isn’t one. But he puts a smile on my face, and I need that.

My beautiful, Fifi on the way to the dog park. She absolutely LOVES riding in HER truck with her driver.

Someone was walking their dogs in the field across the road last night. When they tried to get them into the car to leave they saw my two in the garden and one came running across the road and jumped the wall into our garden to have a go at them. It was muzzled as its apparently not friendly with other dogs.
Lucy didn't appreciate the incursion into her garden and after a chase round the garden had it pinned to the ground by the throat. No damage done but it left the garden pretty quickly when she let it up.
She's a big softy but obviously won't accept other dogs coming into her territory unannounced.

Well, it wasn't invited..... Lucy wasn't having any of that!

If you don't already, please get a strap to secure her to the truck. Our lab was pitched out the back window of our Suburban during a hard stop. We were lucky as she was only scraped up a little. The window was not down fully again until we got a tether between her and the seat belt.

When I was kid our family dog (a medium small Cocker Spaniel mutt) launched out the passenger window of our 1960 rambler Rebel Wagon off my mom’s lap going after a jackrabbit. The good news was we were on a dirt road under 10 MPH.

Same dog was pitched out of the passenger window of my dad's 67 international 3/4 ton when I did a slow flip on another dirt road. I was about 16 at the time. he was probably knocked cold/stunned and I didn't even realize he was MIA til he came limping back some minutes later.

The flip happen during a slight "over recovery" of a slide (caused by smooth gravely road and wide smooth rear highway tires on the back for the camper we sometimes carried)

We found later the right akerman arm on the steering knuckle had simply snapped at that inopportune moment and that tire went sideways and dragged into the berm and I was 90 degrees instantly and flipped like a drunk getting his feet kicked out from under him... onto the driver’s side, then onto the top and settled there... I was left hanging by my seat belt. All at 20 MPH or less.

I hadn't yet put her leash on her again. Usually on there and wrapped tightly around the seat arm rest. But she's never shown the least interest in jumping for a dog. Even at stop lights stopped right next to a car with a dog. She's interested but doesn't ever try to jump. But I agree I'd be heartsick if she jumped/fell and was hurt. My other dog, the little terrorist, Max is a whole other story. I have a small pillow on top the center console over drink holders. His **** is on there, his front legs are on my upper legs. I don't let him get near the window.

JUST changed out my avatar photo from "Sooner" my beloved blonde Lab and true friend. He's been my avatar since 2009. I loved that boy dearly. He's been gone a number of years now, so sad.
Instead Fifi is now my avatar. Rescued at 1 year old right after prior owner let her get pregnant way too young. She birthed 11 puppies BEFORE she was 1. They were sold or given away and Fifi was advertised immediately. Was just recovering from motherhood the day I got her. I've always wondered if it confused the hell out of her to have her babies, lose her babies, lose her home all back-to-back. People ****!
Lady said she knew what to do even though she was so young - instinct I suppose. I've had her 4 years now and she is a wonderful "person". Max came along with her by happenstance - a whole other story. Don't know his age. Vet said 3-5 when I got him so he'd be 7 to 9. I suspect more like 10 or older now. They're both super devoted to me and each other.

A couple of pictures of Roxi. We walked a couple of miles through a local forest yesterday.

Roxi is a beautiful girl!
