it's not over till the fat lady sings

hi every bloggie!
Whew.. I'm glad wordless wednesday is over. It's hard not saying anything. As you can tell by my stick jackin', I met a couple friends on the cape.
Saying hello to this something doodle dog. I think her name is Bella. Hold on... like me check.
Bella never swam before so I showed her what to do.
Cape Cod/ Falmouth
this brownie labradudette was Alta! She kept me in line and made sure I behaved myself. I thought I was a little angel . Anyways who says she makes the rules. Well she weighed 100lbs and certainly use it to her advantage.
Cape Cod/ Falmouth
But I had one trick, mom had treats and that was a HUGE distraction for this large marge.

Back to the backstroking Bella. She is not ester williams by any means but she kept trying. I told her you don't lift your whole paw out of the water.
Cape Cod/Falmouth
Then the chase was on. I surprise everyone with my stealth like speed.

She wanted a taste of a norwood throw down.

Then Ms Thang .. ahem I mean Ms. Alta the labradudette put a stop to the chase. It's not over to the fat lady sings-right? I didn't hear a song..
Cape Cod/ Falmouth
But I saw a ball flung into the air.....and back to chasing the ball.
Cape Cod/Falmouth
It was fun even though she jacked the ball from me too!

  11. Looks like a great time--we're jealous! Tuchuck just learned to swim, and he wants to get out there again. But we hear ya about the big girls--we live with one, and we know how pushy they can be!

  12. Alta sure was one big girl, wasn't she? Falmouth is such a great spot to visit. Looks like you truly enjoyed the water.

  18. That is so nice of you to teach Bella to swim! It looks like miss Labby wanted some Norwood action all for herself and was mad that you didn't pay more attention to her!
