Lake Picnic W/ Tasha *pics*

[Desert Arabian]

Today was a gorgeous day, and I figured a picnic with Tasha at the lake would be a wonderful way to start of my spring break. Tasha is my neighbors dog, who I just love to pieces, and she loves me just as much. Tasha is a German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix. I thought I'd share the pictures with you, afterall, she's such a ham for the cam. We walked to the lake using the horse/bike trail, the lake is about 5 miles away. We left at 9 AM and got back around 12:40 PM.

Here's Tasha playing with her kong on the trail to the lake:

It was all fun, until I lost her kong in the tree...:o She had a fit!

Once we got to the lake we had our little mini-picnic:

For a reward for being such a good model, we played with sticks, since the kong was high up in a tree...

It was then time for a walk on the trails that surrounded the lake:

Water play time was next on the list of things to do:

So, that was my lake picnic with my buddy Tasha, hope everyone enjoyed.

P.S. Her ear is partly shaved b/c she had a benign tumor (size of pea) removed the other day...
