The aftermath of a great day...

The weather was pretty bad today. A lot of people had their fences blow over, or roof tiles blow off their houses. We went shopping, and as we headed home, we saw that one of our local sporting fields was now covered with pieces of tree which had snapped off in the ferocious gale.

The dogs were a bit indignant that we went out without them, so we decided to take them out to Whiteman Park for a run.

They paid very little mind to the weather, and while Barbie spent a little bit of time under the only shelter in the park with us, she still went on a few big high-speed laps around the park. When we got home she went straight to bed before I could even get her collar and lead off!


Bender, as usual, has some missing skin after an hour long session of fetching his ball. We think that when he skids along the grass he loses skin and paw pad in the process. He thinks it is worth it.

Those are definitely happy dog photos.
I'm thinking an exhausted pup means a pup who had a good day. What sweeties.
Just the thought of going to the park makes me wanta take a nap :) What's a little skin compared to all the fun Bender had?
I'm glad they were able to expend some energy! At least they'll sleep well for a while!
Bender looks like he's been on a right bender.. hehe! Deccy x
Just testing! My Intense Debate has blown up(!) so hust seeing if it will let me comment on another blog that uses it. It would seem so! Deccy x
Love Barbie's very satisfied smile:) I'm sure Bender thinks a bit less skin is well worth the fun he had. Great to see them so tuckered out!
Yikes, I hope the weather has greatly improved. At least the dogs weren't overly bothered by it all. As they say, there is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes. ;-)

Clearly, these are some happy pups.
My mommy worries this hurts him Bender. She also worries about infections getting in it. Mommy was wondering if you had tried wrapping it?
Looks like they had a grand time. A tired dog is a happy dog. :-)
Nothing like playin so hard you can't move :) So glad you got out and about! Weird weather all over the place lately. Hopefully will calm down soon! :)

Waggin at ya,
