Waterfall visit

Lucy took the brood of pooches down to the waterfall a while ago for some exercise and cooling off time in the water. To the left, you can see Mini-B, Si-Si and Bejuca checking out the flow. In the right is Mini-B prancing back across the middle pool. Mini-B is
not a fan of the water, while Bejuca doesn't care and will wade right in and start splashing about with no worries or concerns at all. Mini-B and Si-Si think it's torture.

Interestingly, Si-Si is the lamest of the pooches (physically, though I argue mentally at times and get shouted down) but on this day, she bounded behind the Galloper all the way down to the pools and back. She was panting when all was said and done, but not limping all that much, which was pretty amazing, considering the vet said she was probably hit by a car and dislocated the joint on her front left leg way back in the day. The vet said that it's too late to do anything about the dislocation now, but she still romps along just fine for the most part.

thanks char! lucy does most of the pics on the blog, but she needs some extra motivation... so if you could get all the folks that read the blog at hmsa to e-mail lucy and start asking why she's not putting up pics, then that may get her into gear!
