George,
great series of shots and even greater dogs. Love the cleanup routine. I love to take my guys out into areas where I can walk them off-lead and let them be dogs. Here in Florida, we have to be careful. And, right now, the heat is pretty overwhelming. But the chance to let them run, frolic and roll is just wonderful.

Thanks for sharing these. They made me smile a lot.

Jim,

Yes that's why I love the mountains. It never gets too hot and there aren't any dangerous critters to worry about (if you don't count the rare sighting of a Black bear). It's the one place I can really let them just go.

My main home is in Carlsbad in southern Cal and this time of the year we have to get our walks in early in the day to beat the heat. Even worse we have to constantly be on the watch for rattlers. I can't really let them run in brush down here. Actually, my Goldie Calla was nicked by a young rattler last year. Luckily she was pretty quick on her feet and didn't let the snake really sink its fangs in. Her face still blew up like a balloon .
