Afternoon well spent!

After my vet appointment today, mum and I went to Stanley Park to wait out the rush hour traffic.

Just me and MY mum :-)


First things first, I did this (that black thing is a squirrelie!),


Then I looked at mum, waiting for my hand signal to GO GET HIM!!


(mum: for some reason nowadays, if Sunshade spots a squirrel first, she doesn't go chase it right away. She will stalk, and then STARE at me - almost like a Border Collie waiting for his command. As soon as I point, she starts the chase. Sometimes if I feel she may slip or fall due to the uneven terrain, then I don't signal and she just watches until the squirrel hops away.)

There's my GO CHASE signal!!






Then I spotted another guy,


He told me that he'd heard about how nice I was to my piggies..... and he wondered if I would be nice enough to not chase him....


I said sureeee.....


Run along now......


(mum: I didn't give her a hand or verbal chase signal, so she didn't. The squirrel was about 3 feet away from her!)

And then we got to the BEEEEEEEACH!!


You know how much I love the beach right??


Look at what I found!!


Throw it for me NOW mum!


Thank you!!


Here comes the SuperRETRIEVER!


You got another stickie for me?


COMING!!


Hand it over please!!


Mum told me I was BOOOOOTIFUL,



Even with a wet beard (from diving for stickies), I was still BOOTIFUL!


I told mum enouuuuugh pictures already....


Throw another stickie for me!!


There goes my stickie!


I got it!! Look at this picture carefully, do you see how big of a leap I took to get to where I was in the picture? No paw steps for the first bit!


I had a good chew,


I dragged my stickie to a good spot and had a rest,


Parts of the SuperDALE:

The SuperTONGUE,



The SuperPAW (that's MY stickied in case you were wondering),


The SuperNOSE!!!


Then I spotted something....


It was one of my most disliked birdies......


Should I do something about it.....?


Hmmmm.... YEA OF COURSE!!!



Fly away and never come back to beg for MY foooood!!


I found a special stickie :-)


Then a handsome came to say HI,


But his handsome friend didn't come to say HI to me, and he was on MY beach!!!


I asked him if he knew he was on MY beach, and in MY freezing water!!


I sat there.....


As I watched him destroying MY special stickie......


After he left, I went to assess the damage......


Oh well, there were always BIGGER stickies to claim!!!


And then it was time to go.......


I brought myself a souvenir from the beach, and carried it all the way to the DaleMOBILE, (mum: she picked a huge rock lol...)


We brought it home and added to my special rockie collection. This one is the BIGGEST so far!
