Finn's first time in the ocean! *many photos*

Hey, everyone! Cool new site, huh? I like it! So, to celebrate the new look, I'm posting pictures of Finn's first trip to the beach. We had such a good time, he behaved so well! He didn't know what to think of the salt water at first, and, he did get sick once and he was basically peeing out of his butt all day! It wasn't even diarrhea, just icky water. Sorry for the visual...but, he never once acted like he didn't feel well. I took too many photos, as usual...and, couldn't choose...I have more coming, but, I ran out of room in my photobucket album, so, I have to figure something out for the other photos...anyway...here's Finn at Folly Beach!

seeing the ocean for the first time!

there will be more...They're not the most fascinating photos, ever...but, he had so much fun! I'll post more when I can...

aww he looked like he had a blast! zoey hasn't been to the ocean yet. it will ahve to be next year :( But make sure you give water right after she is done because if she has salt water it get her dehydrated (SP) anyway, what is finn's favorite thing to chase in the water?

I've never seen Finn drink so much water! He must have drank six bottles of it in one sitting...and, he was drinking out of hoses everywhere we went, too. We made sure to carry lots of water! We took a red kong ball to catch in the water, he loves to play with whatever! He's really not picky! Here are a few more...

playing, playing, playing!

Ok, I think that's all of them. :) Sorry for so many, I just couldn't choose. It was such a wonderful day, and one I won't soon forget! I love my dog! :) He did so well! Even at the restaurant, he sat and/or laid down right at our feet and never once acted up. There's something to be said for wearing a lab down. ;) I was so proud of him!

Those are excellent pictures!!!! I wish we had a beach around here, I know Tango would love it. Would you mind if I used one of the pics as my desktop background?

awesome! man, i knew when i took that one, that it was a good one! most of them are mediocre at best, but, i think you're right to choose this. it really shows his energy and spirit. he had so much fun, smiles all around!

Kari, looks like a great time was had by all. I don't think I have ever seen Finn so wiped out. :) I'm sure he is looking forward to going back again.

Kari, Those pics are great!! Finn is so adorable anyway. Best of all, we're so happy to see and hear what a great time you both had. Our fave......among many others but the winner is...the professional runners LOL LOL :D Thanks for sharing. Me and the girls really heart Finn ;)

Finn looks like he is having a blast. Love the pictures. That looks like a really great way to spend the day.

Lovley pictures Kari. Looks like Finn had a great time at the beach.
He looked like a regular surfer dog!
