*TONS of pictures* Nova and Luka swimming & playing with 6 other dogs

[.sarah]

Today was a blast. Nova and Luka had a wonderful time hanging out with some friends. Nova's boyfriends, Keyser and Mudd, were there as well as Ammo, Edee, Cinder, & Enzo.

We went out to an acreage ... 850 to be exact ... and let the dogs run around and go swimming in the pond. We also threw out the birds for the dogs, but I don't want to post those pictures here because I'm not sure if it will offend anyone. We also used bumpers to prepare them for the birds so I have pictures of that posted.

Just for reference here is who everyone is :)
Nova -- my dog, cream-colored yellow Lab
Luka -- my dog, dark yellow Lab
Mudd -- chocolate Lab
Ammo -- Golden Retriever
Cinder -- Australian Kelpie
Keyser -- Vizsla puppy, wearing garnet FSU collar and in some pictures an orange reflective collar
Edee -- Vizsla, Keyser's mommy, wearing a purple collar, she's the smallest Vizsla and has gray on her face
Enzo -- Vizsla, wearing black, silver & white collar and in some pictures a yellow reflective collar. He was really "not there" and isn't in a lot of pictures because he was off doing his own thing since he had JUST been bred an hour earlier.

THE END!!

[.sarah]

I CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE I HAVE to say that the first picture of Ammo is BEAUTIFUL!! :o

And how would the bird pictures offend anyone here?? Its the dog doing their job!! Doing what it was bred to do! ;)
Thanks! I thought it came out really well, I was very proud of my camera!!

And I said that about the bird pictures because Karen PMed me when I had a picture of Nova with a bird in her mouth in my petcam in my signiture. She said that lots of people had pet birds here and it could offend them, so I'm just playing it safe. Besides, I'll have them in my zoto account later if you want to look :) They're not there yet, though.

[Love4BCs]

Okay, zoto is working now! All of these pictures (http://nova.zoto.com/user/cat_summary/CAT.38) have Cinder in them, but the first two are of just her.

[vinjashira]

all the dogs seem to do their job very well and have a great time
I suppose they are not called retrievers for nothing :)

[.sarah]

I guess not lol. The retrievers were the only ones after the stick. Everyone else was like ... screw this.

[chocolatepuppy]

Great pics! What a bunch of gorgeous pups! It looks like a fun day was had by them all! :D

[Oggyflute]

Great pics, and what a wonderful place for them to run around in. :)
