….Boucle meeting Archie…..Archie just wants his stick!………

Boucle  was excited to meet Archie.  But Archie had other things on his mind, he really wanted to play fetch the stick!

See Archie GO!……chasing his stick!

Archie’s owner said that Archie used to not like going into the water, and would only get his feet wet.  Then one day Archie’s owner threw a stick into the water.  Archie chased the stick, and loved fetching.  So much that when Archie’s owner arrives and puts his first foot on the sandy beach, Archie is impatient for him to throw the stick, and will chase it into the water over and over again.

Archie now has eyes only for the stick, and has no interest in other dogs, when there is a beach and a stick.  Go Archie!  🙂

Boucle thinks that fetch of a stick, does not mean bringing it back!

When I have the stick in my hand, ready to throw, he gets all excited, making these funny lamb sounds.  I throw the stick and he goes tearing after it, as fast as his legs will go.  And then he stops, sniffs it, and comes back, without the stick….very pleased with himself and happy and ready for another throw! 🙂

…this morning at the lake….
…oh sweetie-pie…..  🙂

…awww sweetie-pie…..all safe and snug……….

This is sweetie pie with his seatbelt.  He is sitting on one of those foam dog beds, so he is snug and safe.  The belt has drifted a little, as I don’t like it too tight, because then he can’t sit comfortably.

He has been wearing one since he was a baby, so he is very used to it.  And it has saved my sweetie-pie many times from being lurched forward when I have had to brake suddenly.

It was like a dog fest Sunday morning.  All these dogs have had their fun and were off to the parking lot.  We were headed in the other direction, to the open area of the off leash park………

Boucle and I were fascinated by the two standard poodles…beautiful dogs……

…Boucle loves paths….and this is one he would like to follow………

Boucle sees paths or openings and always would like to follow them to find out where they lead…this one was to a private home…so he couldn’t go in.
But he does get to follow many paths on trails, which he loves……..

Part of yesterday’s excursion was this very long pier.  Boucle was curious and wanted to walk to the end of it to see what was there.  We saw small sailboats with children inside learning to sail, making all the laughing and summer sounds.  We saw some geese feeding along the side, and a couple of swans too.  It is a beautiful straight and very wide pier.

(Boucle’s leash is cloned out).

Boucle is one curious poodle.  He just loves going on excursions and finding new places.  This was a little area, part of a waterfront park that we found, and he is checking it out, from all sides, up and down and around……..
