Bank Holiday Beach Fun

We decided we would take the dogs to the beach over the weekend, we didnt think Brenda had been before and obviously Chaos hadn't either. After checking the weather forcast it looked like Friday was going to be the better day so off we went.

Brian, Heidi and Kody get so excited when you pull up on the car park and if someone else is getting excited about something Brenda gets excited too as it must be good! So 4 very excited big dogs and Chaos who thinks life is great anyway were a bit of a handful to walk from the car park to the beach, even with two of us!

Brian did his usual bomburst to the sea, he was just like a black dot in the distance. Heidi, Kody and Brenda had a good sprint around on the sand and I had Chaos on a flexi lead (didn't want him floating away to sea!)

Well Brenda and Chaos loved the beach, the both got straight in the sea with the other 3. I was amazed at how Heidi and Kody are so much more confident in water now, they were both at times as far out as Brian. Brenda loves a swim, so she joined Brian in the deeper bits quite a lot. Chaos just got straight in there, hoping over the little waves and sitting down in the water (no problems for hydro there then!)

We had a good walk along the edge of the water and headed back to the van, all 5 were shattered on the way back and walked really nicely! It has taken pretty much until today for Brian to recover, where he has absolutely no self control he just runs until he is shattered but his legs cant cope with it so he has been a bit stiff, he has just had a few short trips around the paddock to keep him mobile. He seems back to normal today though.

Back to work tomorrow :( ...
