Beach Bunny? Easter Bunny? No Silly, It's Dasher

[dukedogsmom]

Yesterday was the day I gave Duke for his birthday. I'd been wanting to go to the dog beach to say goodbye to him for a long time now. I headed over there late yesterday afternoon. It was so overcast and the traffic was so bad that I just decided to spend the night. I'm so glad I did as today was a beautiful day, although a bit windy. I had to stop and get a few things like shampoo, etc since I had nothing. Dasher had just eaten before we left so I wasn't worried about that but I did buy him a box of dog biscuits, which he appreciated. I also bought him yet another toy. Of course it squeeks I decided it looked like a bow tie so I got this pic.

Now on with the beach pics.
In memory of Duke. That's one of the sunflowers used in July 2005 pics on the beach.

Dasher getting aquainted with the beach

With flowers

Even though this is off center, I like it

It's the Easter Dog

More coming

Silly boy


This is so funny. Every time he'd see a dog, this is what he would do. He wanted to play with them all.

Here's what was coming. A beautiful American Bulldog

Dasher liking the water. Although I couldn't get him to get his feet off the bottom. I think I got wetter than he did.

He does this a lot. I think it's so cute

Just a few more

And of course, we've got to have a good roll

I think this is one of my favorites

Clean after a good wash

And after all that, sleepy. Hope you enjoyed

Dasher - you are so handsome.

Dasher is so handsome and makes a great Easter bunny.I know the day had to be bittersweet Val. I'm glad the two of you had a good day!

[cyber-sibes]

What nice pics, looks like the Easter Puppy had a great time at the beach! He has such a great smile, Val, which was also a trait of your dear Duke. I'm thinking Duke was hanging off the edge of the Bridge watching you two & wagging his tail! Happy Easter to both of you!

[Daisy and Delilah]

Awwww!!! He is such a wonderful boy, Val. I really have a soft spot for him, just like I did for Duke. I'm so glad this pretty boy has a Mom that really loves him. He's obviously so happy to have you too. Great pictures. How nice that Dasher could be with you to pay tribute to your dearest Duke. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

Val, the difference in that dog from the day you got him is so obvious! He's SO happy it shows! He's so handsome, I love his coloring. I can't wait to get to a beach...

[Ginger's Mom]

What a wonderful way to spend Duke's birthday. I agree with Pat, I am sure he was watching and approved of the tribute. I can't help smiling every time I see Dasher. He is obviously such a happy boy in his new home. It looks like you have another beach-lover on your hands.

My fav is the one you said was off center, he just looks so peaceful!!

GREAT pics Val!! I loved everyone of them!!

Dasher is a very handsome boy. The beach looks wonderful and it sounds like it was a nice night away from home.

[sabies]

Dasher you are so cute. I love that you are willing to wear the ears; you are such a good sport. The beach looks like a lot of fun!

[Freedom]

Oh my Dasher, you had such a fun time. Bet that beach roll was better than you could imagine, he he. Now you just have to make sure mom takes you there a LOT.

How nice that they offer a dog wash area! I am impressed, I've never seen that before.

Glad that you decided to stay over and enjoy the day.
