Some photos from yesterday

[crysania4]

I ran to the store in the morning to get some eggs yesterday and on the way there I saw this really super awesome snowman. So when I took Dahlia out for her walk, I took my camera to get some pictures of it. And then Dahlia and I went around the whole pond.

Along the way we met a few dogs, one of which was a young houndy/pitty/labby looking dog named Hershey. He was off leash and was obviously interested in coming to Dahlia. I always go to hook her up just in case and the woman called out "He's friendly." I told her Dahlia was too and so she let him come greet her.

Well, Dahlia was frozen in a stalking posture, which didn't seem to put him off. And he came BARRELING at her at full speed. Usually this would result in a dog who was freaked out. But it didn't!! He ran right up to her, play bowed and took off and she ran off after him. They raced around and back and forth. Dahlia was running so fast that she skidded out once or twice. Unfortunately I didn't get any photos of the play time because the light was crap and they were moving SO fast. And I was more worried about keeping out of their way. lol

Here's the snowman:



And to see how big it was, here's Dahlia with the snowman!





Mom, why are you making me pose with this thing?



In the process of glove killing!










More glove killing!

It's awesome that she is really beginning to play with other dogs!

Dahlia is an amazingly gorgeous dog. She looks so.. - I cant even find the right word for it! Striking I guess would be a good one - against the snow!

Great snowman, and Dahlia's as gorgeous as ever. I've heard lots of people moaning about how difficult it is to photograph black dogs, but your shots of her are always beautiful!
