Dahlia runs!

I never think to take video, so here's one of Dahlia greeting me tonight! When I got home, David was out for a walk with Dahlia. I like to keep an eye out because if they appear down the block, he'll let her off lead and she can run to me. It's amazing how far away she is and still recognizes me, even without my saying a word.

Please to be ignoring my horrid voice squealing her name at the end of this (seriously, you might want to watch this with no sound on!). I SO tried to not speak but couldn't resist. Also, she rarely jumps up on me, but she was super excited and I wasn't bending down to her fast enough.

Dahlia vid yay! That is so awesome :-)

I wish I had gotten a video of her trying to herd the goats!

The closest I have is this (http://www.flickr.com/photos/crysania4/3835894449/in/set-72157606033960423/). You can't tell but she came from further to the right before she appears in the video. And unfortunately she was tired as she had already done this brilliant outrun around a HUGE group of geese...a few landed back and I sent her back out! I really need to get more videos of what she does with the geese. Unfortunately they're geese though...so they kind of fly away when they see a black dog bearing down on them.

OMG HER TAIL!!! I will have to watch that vid again because I couldn't look away from her tail this time round :-P

Yeah, you guys get a LOT of snow, my god!

She has a lot of tail! LOL

IT IS THE WORLD'S MOST AMAZING TAIL!

Haha and yes. Lots of snow! Much of it melted last week, but then we got another 16 inches or so on Sunday.

I loved this! I had to watch it again because for some reason I thought she was going to come in from the side, and then I realised there was a black bullet coming down the path lol

Haha! I should have pointed out that she was WAY BACK in the video and to keep an eye out for her. She was over half a block away when he released her.

I love the pure joy that only dogs can show.

Pictures are cute, but videos are cuter. Now that you've started, you know we're going to ask for more videos of Dahlia, right? :D

[identity profile] crysania4.livejournal.com 2011-03-10 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. LOL I need to do more videos! I take SO many pictures but I rarely think "gee I should turn this thing to video!"

Hey - the shop where I work is having a 50% off sale on all sweaters and outdoor coats, plus my employee discount. Would you be interested in anything for dahlia? If you are, let me know her measurements and I'll let you know what we have!

[identity profile] crysania4.livejournal.com 2011-03-10 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah hah! That was you! I was about to delete it as spam and then realized "wait....I bet this is someone I know who forgot to sign in first." LOL

That sounds like an awesome deal but I'm not sure I'd need anything. We've never put a sweater or coat on her. She has such a thick coat that even when it's been -15 outside she's been ok. Any chance they're selling some nice booties? Her feet are the only thing that really bother her in the winter (salt, mostly).

We do sell some all weather/all terrain booties, but I don't think they're part of the sale. I'd still get a 30% discount, though. I'll check the brand and price tomorrow or sat for you. What we've been selling more of is the Musher's Secret, people love it as an alternative to protect against snow/ice/salt/hot asphalt.

She's just so happy to see you! It makes me smile. :)

Just a heads up, I just added you as a friend, finally. I need regular doses of Dahlia.

Excellent! I'll go add you back so you can see all the posts. I write about her...a lot. LOL
