Blue Sky Reserve

A couple of weeks ago we got to do another hike with our Leash Your Fitness family.

It was a beautiful day, so we had lots of people join us on the hike.

We hiked at Blue Sky Reserve in Poway and since it had just rained the night before, eveything was still damp and smelled delcious.

Mom, of course made me pose on rocks and such. Sheesh...hurry it up, will you! They are leaving us behind!

Even though Blue Sky Preserve is just a short 20 minute drive from Sandy Eggo, it feels like we are in the middle of nowhere. Big trees cover the path, and some of them still had some pretty color on them.

I tried to tell Mom that picnic tables are for eating...but she thinks they are for posing.

Once we got a little ways away from the main trail, we got to run around off leash. Technically we are suppose to be leashed, but those of us who have good recalls were allowed to run around a bit. Our humans are always on the lookout for rangers, cuz off-leash tickets can be expensive!! They also keep an eye out for other humans & their dogs. As soon as they see someone else coming they call us back and leash us up. They know not everyone wants doggies running up to them when they are out for a hike!

We hiked all the way to a big lake. Some of the doggies got to go down to the edge of the lake and swim a bit, but Mom was mean and wouldn't let me get wet.

 

I sure love our hikes!!

Out with the old & in with the new!

BOL! That's not a very nice way to put it, but the good news is Snapdragon found a home!

She's going to be living with some friends of Mom's. They have 2 other dogs and we know she's going to do great there! Best part is we'll be able to see her all the time.

The other news is, we got a new foster!

This is Myrna. She's a 3-4 month only terrier blend. Normally we don't like taking young ones like this, cuz Mom works 20 gazillion hours a day and obviously babies like this need to go out often when they are being potty trained. Our bestest neighbor, who also fosters, asked us to take this one in though...and promised to come over multiple times a day to let her out!

We don't think we'll have her for long. She's super sweet and great with the cats. Pups like that go like wildfire!

Snapdragon has blossomed!

This little girl...the one who was skin and bones when she came to us, with a broken jaw has really come out of her shell

When she first arrived, she was scared of everything! The cats, the car, the leash...and most of all...ME!

But now look at her. We are bested buds and love to play and rough house.

I personally think she's training for a position as dental doggie.

But she's sassy and not even afraid when I roar at her!

Sometimes I just gotta put her in her place. Make sure she remembers who the boss is.

Mom doesn't especially like it when I do that...but little Snappy is never worse for wear.
