today plus the adorable Lotti.

ELLY MY DAUGHTER'S BOXER WITH LOVELY LOTTI |
Lotti is a one year old chocolate Lab I’ve been
caring for (and training too). She’s a bundle of fun with so much energy she all
but fizzes! She’s also what I call a social swimmer – she doesn’t need a ball
or stick to entice her in - as she leaps into water and swims just for the hell
of it.
At North Harbour Reserve as soon as we’re away from the road the
leads are removed. Living up to expectations Lotti ran full pelt straight to
the rock wall, clambered down into the sea, and began swimming. What occurred
next was hilarious. Little Sunny the Cavadoodle stood on the rocks watching Lotti
as if to say 'what's going on - don't leave me!’ Seconds later he jumped in and
was swimming furiously behind Lotti. At
this point Amber, now seeing both the others in the water, could bear it no
longer - so in she went too! It was
doggie Pied Piper with the Sunny and Amber swimming as fast as they could
trying to keep up with Lotti. I stood on the side laughing out loud – a
priceless moment.

SO MUCH FUN OUR 1 HOUR WALK TIME EXPANDED TO 1 HR 18 MINS |
Adventure walks are an hour (this was well over an hour) & leash free so my dogs can really let off
steam. They run & play together (& with other dogs) and of course swim.
At one point a guy passed us by walking slowly with 3 dogs on leads. And I just
couldn’t help thinking how lucky Amber, Sunny & Lotti were, clearly having so much fun rather than being kept on leads and only allowed to walk
on the grass….
I definitely enjoying every little bit of it and I have you bookmarked to check out new stuff you post.
