Beach Day

Last Sunday, I went to Grand Beach, one of the best beaches in Manitoba. In fact, it was once voted in the top 10 beached by playboy! But of course that's not the reason I'm talking about the beach. The real reason is, I took Sophie with me. It was her very first time at the beach. In the past I had tried to get her into water and to like it, but with not much success. I knew if only I could find a beach and encourage her to follow me in to the water. By the end of the day she went into the water a few times, all on leash. She didn't protest but she wasn't overly eager to get wet. All in all, I think she did an amazing job and I am so proud of her.

(OK, everyone out of the pool!)

The only thing that didn;t go our way, were the flies. Sand flies. They bite...a lot! No one was exempt, especially not Sophie. We ended our day a few hours earlier than planned becasue everyone was getting eaten alive. Oh well, part-in-part of summer I guess.
