Snoopy Goes to the BEACH

As most of you know, I miss taking Zoey to the beach to run and feel the freedom that a dog should feel. So, I asked a friend if I could take their dog Snoopy for the weekend. They thought I had lost it because people don't usually invite dogs to go on vacation, they usually want to leave them home. Well, Snoops came to the beach and she had an awesome time, as did I. We walked the Canal road several times a day, socialized with many other dogs (and people) that were at the Campground, and simply enjoyed the new experience.

Snoops had never been to the beach or felt the sand between her toes, so when I let her off the leash to run in the sand, she was so excited. She ran in and out of the waves and up and down the beach. Stopping only to see if I was watching. I was not only watching, I had the camera going like mad. I know, no surprise to those that know me, but she was really so funny. The last couple of shots that I got, I wasn't paying too much attention to the water and a huge wave came and nailed us both... we were soaked, and it was a little cool (October). It didn't seen to phase Snoops, but I certainly wasn't too pleased to have soaked jeans, shoes and oh ya, the walk back up to the path through the sand was nasty. We were both covered in SAND! Needless to say, that was the end of the beach for the time being. Maybe next year we will do it again. Till then Snoops, thanks for the laughter and the memories!
