…we love our walks on a rainy fall day……….

Boucle and I are prepared for all kinds of weather.  And since he was a puppy he and I have been going out in the rain for walks (not in big winds or storms).  In fact, Boucle loves it…thinks it is perfectly normal, and quite a treat.

Yesterday was gusty and with a light rain. Boucle had on his sweater and ducky raincoat, and I had my windbreaker, hat and boots.  We both stayed dry quite nicely.  Except for Boucle’s pouf, as you can see, it flopped under the rain, and his tail gets wet, so it looks quite raggedy.  But we had fun.   I love doing going out in the rain, it feels like an adventure, and when we get back inside, we know we had a great fall day.

…checking out the new boots……….

 

Dog walking in winter with ice, snow, slush, and bitter cold can be off putting.  Delay, delay because there is too much winter outside.  So for me to not mind going for walks with sweetie-pie, I need to be warm, cozy and dry….from head to toe.

These are my new dog walking boots.  Warm and cozy, and dry.  Boots that will make me happy to be out on a cold or snowy winter’s day walking with Boucle.

…Boucle in front of parasailers………..

We visited the Lake yesterday afternoon, spur of the moment as the weather was so fine.  And we came across parasailers who had the same idea.

I asked sweetie-pie to sit , trying to get the sailing action behind him.  He was so good.  He sat, even though he really wanted to sit the other way, and watch the sail in the sky.

…such a good Boucle……

…….so excited that I was back home……that he was faster than the shutter speed………..

When I arrive home, he jumps up and down in joy, then runs around bouncing back and forth and then does the  “I am so happy I want to play, Jane”.

…look at his tail going…sweetie-pie………

…a fall afternoon for Boucle……..

While I raked leaves on a sunny fall afternoon, Boucle sat and observed the going ons on the street.  Between the squirrels, the odd sounds and the cars going by, there was stuff to see.  He sat like this, with dappled light from the sun shining through the oak tree,  for quite a while.
