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!

OOO, that water is cold!

Here is one of my favorite pictures in Salty Dogs. I love the tentative touch of the toe . I feel that way when I get to the beach and discover that the sun is warm and the water is freezing!

Fall is here!

While this weekend is the offical end of summer, there is plenty of time left to hit the beach. After school starts back , things are a lot quieter at the beach and many of the beaches allow dogs again.

the sand is cooler, the water warm and best of all , the beach is empty!

Big enough Stick??

Jacko, the feisty Jack Russell Terrier of Huntington Beach, has found a treasure! He really doesn't care that the stick is big enough for a Mastiff. Go , Jacko, go!

Lost is found!

Determined not to let it get away this time, this Lab attacks the ball.

Got it!

Look I found! Aren't I a good boy!

Refreshing start to the day!

What better way could there be to wake up in the morning. Labs don't put their toes in , they explode into the waves!

Time to go!

One last look, then it is time for home , a bath and a nap. Some dogs refuse to leave and have to be carried away. There is always tommorrow.

Catch me if you can!!

A cool morning at the beach encourages a vigorous game of Catch me if you can!

Find your own fun!

Some dogs naturally find a way to entertain themselves. First this way, then that way, tail chasing gives this beach loving JRT a lot of fun in the sun. And best of all if nothing exciting is happening, the tail is always available.

Reflection!

Blue skies, freedom , and a place to enjoy the run: no wonder dogs love the beach!

One last run!

The light is beginning to fade but someone just doesn't want to give up! One last run before we go.

Look what's Looming!

Molly give the eye to the wave that is looming behind her, she quickly sizes it up, decides no way!

No Crowds!

Early morning can be the best time for dogs at the beach. There are no crowds and it often cooler.

Pug time!

Every Pug knows the beach is the place to go. Just make sure it is a cool day and take plenty of water !

Get onboard!

Blue sky, nice waves, warm temps! Time to get onboard!

Ball+ Dogs= Fun !

Any day at the beach is even more fun when you add a ball . Any ball will do!

Pit Bull Gets Ball!

In California, pitbulls are frequent visitors to the beaches. They love to retrieve like the retrievers, love to run like the greyhounds and love to dig like the terriers. Each day at the beach is a day in heaven!

Mission Accomplished!

Going out, coming in!
Once again mission accomplished!
