The most affectionate creature in the world is a wet dog.
~ Ambrose Bierce
I know that many of you are huge Benny fans and that there haven't been all that many photos of the little guy recently. Coincidentally, I had the following late summer images planned in this scheduled post when I decided to share the story of Benny's unplanned November dip in the lake. So for those of you who look forward to seeing our little guy, sit back and enjoy a bit of bonus Benny. Just don't let him up on your lap... he's all wet.
Benny loves playing fetch in the lake. If you toss a stick or a ball, he is more than happy to go get it. Just don't count on his returning it to you - unless of course you can entice him with another stick.
Hey Benny, you're going the wrong way. Turn around a find that ball.
There it is.
And there.
And there. I really found it hard to toss a ball and then lift the camera in time to catch the splash, so please indulge me.
Good boy! Bring it on back.
Shake it out, baby!
One more shake and you'l be just about dry.
Or not.
More photos coming up soon. Grab a towel on your way out.
