"Theo" The visiting beach doggy!

"Theo" is the closest mammal I have to being my grandchild. I am not complaining as he was very easy to hand back to his mom and dad while they vacationed with him on Vieques Island recently. Theo loved the ocean and spent hours on the beach. Notice the matching life vest and raft, he definitely traveled very stylish including his travel bag. It was his first two week vacation.

Hot day for the dogs!

I knew it was time to go to the beach , when Lula Belle went running and jumped in the fountain today. It was a hot day! She loves the water...Off to the beach...

Spotty goes to the beach On Vieques Island, PR

Surf is a little rough today, but Spotty is a true beach doggy so he had to make a day of it. With a life ring like that ... he had nothing to fear.The other five beach doggies were a real pain, bugging Spotty & Thumper wanted to try and drown him. But that life ring was a savior!!

Thumper & Nellie... Vieques Island

Another morning on our daily beach walk on Vieques...I am so lucky to be able to walk out the door and take the dogs on the beach every morning. I see so many dogs in such sad situations and I wonder if my dogs are aware of what a wonderful life they have. I hope to never have them have to leave Vieques again. To think of how many years I would fly my dogs between Vieques and Chincoteague Island, is actually now a nightmare to me. Then is was just life..
Thes are pictures of the usual , Thumper full of energy, while the other dogs try to just chill and
then... THE ATTACK!! He has knocked me off my feet a few times!
