Yellow Dog

We have this yellow labrador named "Moses".

Actually he is "Caanan's Rod of Moses."

He is a highly bred, highly trained, expensive, awesome hunting dog.

He is also a big, dorky, whiney pain in the butt...

He's a good dog really.

Friendly, gentle, sweet. He has never so much as curled a lip at anybody.

He also whines.

All the time. Which gets really,really, really annoying.

Like today, when he wouldn't stop whining & I ,uh.... laid hands on him...you know, like in the Bible... :)

But he is a good dog.

So, to make amends for 'laying on hands' I will immortalize him in cyber space :)

One of the really nice things about this house is that behind it are almond orchards & we can walk thru the orchards to the levee. Climb the levee & on the other side is the creek.

It is a fabulous place to walk, play & ride.


Walking thru the orchard.


The levee is steep. Really steep.



Walking along the levee to our favored creek spot known as "Clam Beach."



This is Petra. Our other dog  (of questionable parentage...)




Moses's favorite thing in the world is "fun bumpers". Fun Bumpers are when you throw the bumper & he gets to go after it, right away, without having to be released or directed. Fun Bumpers are a reward for a good training session.


Waiting for the toss...



Fetching it up...


Got it!





I wanna! I wanna!




Give!



"Throw it! Pant, pant! Throw it!"


The take off.


Bringing back another one.



"I'm just a humble dog. Really I am."


Headed for home.

Blessings.
