Dogs have adventures too


I took Byron with me to stay at Merricks with Michele and
Andy and I introduced him to water at the beach. For a pooch
that is otherwise terrified of water, he had a great time, chasing
the ball along the hard sand and into the water, led most of the
time by little Luna - the much older Jack Russell / dachsund. Byron played with the small waves just like a child and on one occasion raced full tilt into the water thinking that would be the direction of the ball. Wrong! He was immediately out of his depth, but that did not worry him, although he did make a very quick escape. What fun he had. At least now I should be able to coax him into the little shell paddle pool that I bought for his summer baths. Up to now, he wouldn't even step into 5 cm water to retrieve his much loved ball!
