Empty Beach!

How often do you go to the beach and find it completely deserted? If you go after New Years, the Outer Banks are empty.

You can't help but reflect that this is how the beach would have been 100 years ago. The dunes hid all the beachfront houses and when the fog rolled in, I could also see a ghost ship hovering off the coast.

Getting Mauled is Fun??

Some dogs idea of fun at the beach is spending their time wrestling other dogs. These two are housemates but some times other dogs will want to play rough with your dog. Watch what is going on, and take your dog on down the beach if he is being overwhelmed! Make the beach fun for your dog.

Down Under Salty Dogs!

The fun thing about the internet is that you can meet people you would never have contact with otherwise. When I met Tania at the dogster group for greyhounds, we realized that we had something in common. She works for my publisher,Wiley AU, and even knew about my book Salty Dogs! She told me how much her own dogs love the beach and sent me some pics of her crew getting down and sandy. I thought everyone might enjoy seeing down under salty dogs!



Here are two pics of Jake her greyhound , I love the sandy nose shot, tho I know where that sand will land when he licks his nose! I am always wiping the sand off of Molly's nose so she doesnt ingest it!

Here is Mac- Australian Kelpie (Smoke blue/grey boy) and Ivy- Kelpie X (Black smaller girl)

"These are my four legged friends on holiday's with me last year at a dog beach called Woodside. This is a dog friendly beach is located along the 90 mile beach in East Gippsland, Victoria, Australia ," says Tania

Meet and Greet Time!

Meet and greet at the beach is probally the dogs favorite activity. Think of all the info they gather , even if it is a bit personal at times!

Doxie Days!

Fall is the best time at the beach! Free to run, free to sniff and free to be free! This pair of Dachshunds were fun to watch and photograph!

Braving the waves!

Taking a break!

Looking pretty for the camera!
