We've just gotten back from THE best walk on Boulmer beach :thumbsup: Glorious sunshine, tide waaaay out for miles so Tina had acres of sand to gallop on and we met a few other doggy friends - two & half wonderfully relaxing hours - it just doesn't get much better, does it! :huggles:
We started off playing with her ball-on-a-rope which she loves and then met a couple we know through chatting to them as they walk their dogs too (our hounds are such a great way to meet folks). They have two ex-racers so Tina had a lope around with them for a while. Then we continued on along the beach and Madam found some stinky seaweed to roll in! By the time I'd caught up with her she was rotten!!! :x
Then we met up with a couple who had a collie-X and we had a few minutes' chat with them as Tina played with their dog and then we were joined by a couple with two Springers and Tina REALLY loved these two :wub: She was haring around them in big circles and even followed them into the sea!!! Normally she won't go past her ankles (fetlocks?) but with these two she was running around and splashing water everywhere and SWIMMING!!!!!!! (w00t) It was fabulous watching her having such a great time and I was really kicking myself at forgetting my camera!!! I could have got a great video of her
She's now crashed out asleep on her bed, absolutely knackered :lol: Looking at the pic I can see a couple of grazes where she's caught herself again but they're nowt to worry about :- " She's always picking up the odd nick here and there and they normally heal up within a day or two :b
It's made me realise that we really DO need another whippet for her as she looked SO happy today having fun with other dogs :wub:
